I picked this up, and I find it to be better used as a comedy prop. It is made of a durable hard
plastic. If you have a comedy funnel and milk pitcher, this goes well right before or after that
routine. I think it works better with a child volunteer. I don't think this will be *the* thing
that blows everyone out of the water, but it is a nice filler.

I needed a replacement glass after many years of using my old one. The quality of my new glass was
better than my original and offered more versatility in its workings. Although just used as a
distraction for me to produce a large object, I found it to be better than expected.

It works, it's easy. It's safe to say, Bazar de Magia makes good products.

A very well made gimmick for a good prop. I wouldn't use this alone as a trick but it can easily fit
into a well constructed routine. Good price.

This is great fun! I purchased it to go in a kids show routine and it gets lots of laughs and great
reactions even from parents! It is a surprisingly strong effect that is just too cool not to use!
Neat little effect that can be used in many ways with a bit of creativity! I use mine with a Milk
pitcher routine from Silly Billy's DVD!

This is another excellent utility prop from Bazar de Magia.
Well made and does what it is
supposed to do. It looks very ordinary , not like a "tricky" glass. (no phony looking bands of
metallic tape around the top edge , etc.) I would recommend it.
The only thing that would
be better is if they offered this in two sizes: Regular size (this one, which seems to be a 10 - 12
oz glass) and a LARGE size (24 oz or perhaps even a 32 oz size). The current version is fine for a
"living room" type of show or a smallish platform/stage venue, but on a large stage this is too
small and will get lost. (you could use the Bazar de Magia milk pitcher in that case ... although
the specific reason most people want to use a milk glass instead of a pitcher is because the pitcher
tends to be a less commonly used item , whereas a glass feels like more of an ordinary , everyday
item.) Maybe I should have purchased the 'Automatic Milk Glass' by Aprendemagia (also available
from Penguin) which is a 17 oz. glass that seems to be basically the same method as this Deluxe Milk
Glass (but is 3x the cost). The current version would be good for television or Zoom shows if
you're careful with the camera angles so the camera isn't positioned so it's looking down into the
glass , if you know what I mean. I'm not going to ding it for the size , so this gets 5 stars , but
just saying I hope Bazar de Magia will bring this out in a larger size . (I'll buy it !)
The instructions for this are an online link you get to a PDF file. Frankly, the instructions
are a bit spare. For an item that has many uses seems like they should include more ideas in the
instructions for things you could do with it. (but if you watch the demo video you get the basic
idea ... which should spark your imagination for how you could utilize this for various routines).
Instructions are not clear that the inner and outer parts seem to be permanently attached
(?) , at least mine seems that way. (If it's not supposed to be that way , then mine is stuck
together) This is different from other glasses of this kind that I've used or seen, where the inner
part comes out for cleaning. I guess for cleaning you're just supposed to fill it with lukewarm
water to rinse it and then pour out the water and let it drain. A bit of water seems to remain in
mine after rinsing it , so I guess you're supposed to let that evaporate. I think I'll store mine
with one of those Silica Gel Desiccant Moisture Absorbing packets to dry it out completely after
rinsing.
the deluxe milk glass is a great item you can do alot with it it's easy to set up tip take care of
it rince it out out good after each use and it should last a long time heres a tip don't use milk or
oom or milk tex use soy milk or powdered milk great item pick it up.
Great quality. This is the prop David Kaye uses in his penguin lecture.
This glass works great and is a bargain for the price. I use it for a spring flowers and the head
routine and it's very nice. You can't go wrong for the small investment!
