DS9 had at least two different kinds of flared mugs: the HotJo, which is still sold for $30, and the Feltman Langer, which is no longer sold, but this CherryTree is recreating.
I would not be able to properly control the flow rate of hot beverage directed at face with that design. Still love that look
Finally! Been looking for these for a long time that weren’t stupidly overpriced!
They’re 30 bucks…
It’s still a lot of money for a mug, but compared to the $150-$300 they’re selling for on eBay it’s a great deal!
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.
Very tempting! All the other ones I’ve seen are quite expensive.
I need this.
Don’t get me wrong, they get points for the Coolness Factor, but am I the only one who thinks this is genuinely a terrible design for a mug? Like, I have a hard enough time getting the coffee rings out of my cylindrical mugs, I don’t even want to imagine the finger cramps I’d get trying to clean this one (or worse, the mold that would certainly grow if I didn’t deep clean it every time)
Neat, a mug that looks like a bullhorn
