No this pitcher is not glass. I like the way they can be put on side door of refrigerator or on shelf and they don't take much room. A while back I did see them at costco they were cheaper. Hope this helps. Suzanne

the pitcher is made of a plastic. Do not put in the dishwasher. Hand wash only.

Yes it is and pretty thin, fragile glass at that. After ~ 6 months ours broke and you can't buy replacements currently (we've looked everywhere) so unless they start making them again the whole thing is going in the dump :-(

To look at it, you would think it's glass, but alas, it's very clear plastic. I'm not ashamed to use mine; I really like it.

The pitcher is NOT made of glass but of, "Stain, cloud and odor proof, durable, high temperature material with glass-like clarity" as stated in the description. It IS some type of plastic.

No, This is a plastic pitcher. But the plastic is harder than normal which is why they have a trade name for it (accraglass?). You would need to boiled water on the stove, or in the microwave as I do with a pyrex measuring cup. Or, sometimes I use my keurig.

No. You should only use Pyrex-style borosilicate glass if you're using it to boil water in the microwave. The pitcher could easily shatter.

The pitcher is glass. So far it's held up well and I wash it in the top rack of dishwasher.

No. It is glass and a great jar. I use it each day to drink cold water or a jar of hot tea.

I would suggest you research if there is a company web site. There is no marking on the pitcher itself.

Don't think so. Looks exactly like the one ones I had previously. fit the pitcher correctly

Yes it is. It looks very nice. It doesn't look like the cheap glass. The only thing is that it took us long time to assemble

You would have to ask the mfg. to see if this pitcher is made with tempered glass, before putting boiling water into it first.

The glass is a translucent white color. not homogeneous, kinda swirled . Looks nice

Absolutely, the reason is tempered borosilicate glass. I pour boiling hot water into it all the time - no problems. Yes it is thin and this helps keep the temperature differential down. I agree you should make sure the pitcher is at room temperature before shocking it with hot water.

the glass is thick but the lid will melt.i put the lid in the dishwasher and it melted,it said it was dish wash safe.i only use the pitcher.

I don't believe this is the correct pitcher for that model. That model appears to have a center drip. This one has a side drip.
