Office Mugs

A desk mug needs three things: capacity (14-20 oz), a wide stable base, and a comfortable handle that does not tire your wrist when full. A mug warmer pairs well with this category.

Frequently asked questions

What is a good office coffee mug?

A 14-20 oz ceramic mug with a wide base, sturdy handle, and ideally an electric mug warmer underneath.

Should an office mug have a lid?

A loose-fit "coaster" lid extends heat retention and keeps dust out. A sealed lid is overkill at a desk.
