Gibson Home Expressions Espresso Porcelain Saucer Set, 13PC Cups Stand, White/Black

Someone in my house was continually taking mugs of coffee to work who didn't like using a standard thermos in any design whatsoever. Some of the mugs didn't make it back home in one piece. These Gibson mugs were the solution. They are very sturdy, strong, long-lasting, and nice looking. This is a really great design and they come home safely every time they take coffee to work!

I chose these mugs because my husband loves to leave mugs teetering on railings, couch arms, anywhere that pushes the envelope for tipping. Deep sigh. This wide-base design is exactly what I wanted. Does not get hot to touch in the microwave...i.e. the liquid heats, mug doesn't. I wish the handles were a little bit bigger but you can't have everything. I personally really love the aestetic design on the mug.

These are great cups, easy to use.

I read the warning reviews from others who mentioned the packages with chipped or broken cups. I also noticed that Amazon pulled this product temporarily to review the packaging. When it came back on the market, I thought it was worth the $20.00 risk. Shipping and Exterior packaging were all up to Amazon's excellent standards. I received the order in 3 days, and pulled it out of the voluminous amounts of bubble material that Amazon had wrapped this in.Unfortunately the manufacturer isn't as careful as the shipper. Inside the actual espresso cup box you will find 6 small cups rather hastily wrapped with thin pieces of construction paper that are stuffed haphazardly among the tines of the metal hanging frame. The plates are slightly more cared for, being wrapped in paper before they were tucked into a cardboard box that fit snugly in the metal frame. As I unwrapped each cup, I found -- you guessed it -- one cup with a small chip on the outside of the rim, and another with a handle that had been completely snapped off. Given the amount of room these cups have to rattle around in the box, it's really a surprise that ANY package shows up with all the cups intact! The manufacturer needs to re-think their packing strategy so the cups are more securely wrapped.Now, having said all that -- I still think these cups are great! I repaired the broken handle on mine, but the chipped cup will have to stay that way, as the chip was nowhere to be found. If Amazon could work with the manufacturer to improved shipping, that would be fantastic. Otherwise I'd say these are GREAT little espresso cups, but the buyer best be aware that they will probably be fixing a cup or two right from the get-go.

Look wonderful on the coffee bar and is good quality. Dishwasher safe too.

My husband likes these a lot. The cork bottom is removable so the mugs can go in the dishwasher. Good purchase for someone who appreciates basic, functional mugs that hold just the right amount.

The cork base is difficult to remove - instead of easily popping on and off with a magnet at the base to securely hold in place like other similar products, this one has a small cork base that you have to force the mug into - and the lid is sized incorrectly (too small and sits much too deep inside the mug, making it a spill and safety hazard when the mug is holding hot liquid). Not a good product and would definitely not buy again. Throwing this item away because it’s too much of a hassle to return.
