quality are as expected (thick and adds a better taste and sensation to coffee drinking). ((However)) I should have bought the 10 or 12 oz size cups. the 8 oz is really for water drinking not for latte or cappuccino making.I would buy this cup again but with 10oz sizeMy favorite lids are International Paper and I bought these Dixie cups hoping they would be compatible since I have found other cup brands that are. Unfortunately these are nowhere close to compatible. I would've settled for a looser fit for the lids but nope, the mouth diameter doesn't even come close to matching.Love these cups, great for coffee, and with 4 kids in house, we go through tons on them. Kids use lots of cups. I am going to try to find exact same cup in smaller size for kids drinks. You can get matching lids as well. These are a staple in our house.Advertised Dixie perfectouch and sent thin paper cups. Not good for hot things, like coffee.They're sturdy and they get the job done. They don't leak, you can even refill them several times without losing integrity. Best of all, they're not styrofoam. Paper is safe, biodegradable and made from a renewable resource. If you must use disposable products, paper is the way to go.I generally like dixie...but these cups are definitely horrible for hot drinks...such a wasteThese cups are "okay" I am used to the cups that have the spun string texture on the outside. That texture does two things, 1) grip, 2) insulates hands from hot coffee. These cups burn my hands just enough to make me dance looking for a place to set it down if I have a fresh cup of coffee in it. And Holy Cow, Now I have a thousand of these.....a 2.5 year supplyIn the otherwise mundane world of paper hot cups, every now and then a cup comes along that makes you stand up (or at least sit up a bit straighter) and take notice. Don't be fooled by the plain white finish. This cup holds its water (tea and coffees too).I purchased these Dixie 2342W Paper Cups for my office to offer to clients as an alternative to hand washed mugs.They are well priced and of high quality; they also come packaged in a box for easy storage.There are no chemical smells or taste (we have experienced this with other comparable products).We will purchase these again when we have used up our supply.We dispensed hot coffee from a carafe and you could not hold the cup without burning your fingers.As expected. Shipping was fast to the door with prime. Cheaper than buying local. Cups are well built to last thru a number of servingsBought these for work. Leakproof. Great for moneygood product - excellent quality
