any recommendations for a everyday tiki mug (with handle) for coffee drinking, that can withstand a quick spin in the micro?
thanks..

Look out for the model DW108 at:

The photo isn't the greatest, but it's a decent enough little mug with a Tiki design and handle. Plus, it's pretty cheap & widely available.

Can't say I'd put it in the micro, but my tiki coffee mug here at work is a St. Thomas Tattoo. You too can own one for a very reasonable amount. GO HERE Drop me a line and make an offer.

Alright!
So I'm looking for a tiki mug to use as a coffee(tea, acutally) mug.
What do you use?
Vintage? New?
What's your favorite one to use at work or in your home office?

Here's what I use:
I fill it up about halfway, the top part stays cool enough to hold.

I like the use of traditional tiki mugs, but it's hard to find old ones with handles that aren't crazed up like craze-y

A new tiki mug with a handle, or a taller yet non-tippy one would be cool

I almost placed an order for one last fall, but never got around to it. I was just thinking about it this morning in fact. The nice thing about traditional coffee mugs is that they don't have any bumps on the inside. When I'm at work I often don't have time do wash my mug out right away, so lack of internal bumps would probably be a good thing.

That's a great one freddie! Covers all the bases. Traditional style, yet big enough for a good sized beverage, smooth on the inside, plus it has a handle!
