Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I purchased these mugs for use at work. I have used regular bowls to boil water, heat canned soups, and similar items. I was always concerned with burning myself from the porcelain or from splashing as I walked back to my desk. I later upgraded to a bowl with a small handle as that was all I could find at the time. The handle got so hot I could not hold it with my bare hands but, if water splashed from soup, it would not go directly to my hands.
Then I found these cups. They have a large handle which makes them easier and safer to hold. This is a big improvement to me. The sides of the mug are virtually straight so, as I walk there is no "sloshing" of liquid contents. The rubber cover vents well and keeps any "pops" from making a mess in the company microwave. This also serves to contain the contents when I walk briskly since there is no way to splash or slosh the contents out. The cover also serves to contain the heat a little if I am interrupted while eating or, I put some Ramen noodles in it to rest and soften up.
The only complaints I have are relatively minor. The first is the lack of thermal mass. This may be a feature to some people in that it allows very hot things to cool faster but, when placed on a cool desktop in a gentle breeze from the air conditioner it will cool off too quickly for my personal preference. The other issue is the price. At ~$6 a piece and selling individually, they seem a little too expensive for what they are. I should note that this has not prevented me from buying some more of them though ;-)
For my use at work in an office, the white exterior looks professional and cleans easily. The straight sides with cover keep the mess to a very minimum. Finally, the lip on the mug lets me "drink" the last bits of soup or noodles without dribbling or looking silly. In a pinch, it will work as an extra large coffee cup as well. Overall, this a very good product for my use in the office or at the company microwave.
