Simple. Durable. Stacking. Reasonably sized. Cheap.

Ticks all my boxes.

Stacking is a definite plus, and often overlooked in the mug world. Seems like it's kinda small (230mL)? Perhaps more importantly, how's that handle?

The smallness is a bonus for me. The frequent trips to the pot forces me to confront the depth of my coffee problem.

I actually like the handle, in so far as it doesn't get in my way. I've never seen the point in mug handles. If it's too hot to cup in my hand, its too hot to drink.
