Is this shape not rather impractical? It may be more difficult to accidentally knock over, but you would also need to tip it back to a somewhat extreme angle in order to get everything out of it.
I think the design was originally intended for use on boats, and other places where tipping is a likely occurrence.
I think it’s for any motor vehicle where tipping is likely. See this page with all sorts of pictures and examples, including old packaging.
It’s very practical if you’re somewhere without inertial dampeners.
Does earth have inertial dampeners??
Is the wider section actually hollow? I was imagining they might just have a normal round shape inside due to it being more difficult to mold.
No way am I able to clean that without a bottle brush. I’ll sick to a standard mug.
The jingle is a nice add-on, though a white-coloured print may have been clearer.
It’s interesting that they didn’t bother replicating (heh) the rubber base of the originals. Too many added costs, I suppose.
You’re probably right that the math didn’t add up for them.
Might be worth getting a pad replacement for the original cup and slapping that on yourself.
I wonder if those would fit - the article says that these “replimat-style” mugs are smaller than the Highwave “Quark’s” mugs, but I suppose they could have the same base.
I need this.
Very tempting! All the other ones I’ve seen are quite expensive.
Neat, a mug that looks like a bullhorn
