Fiesta 453-119P Review by dltstl "dltstl" (Oakland, CA United States)

I really love my fiestaware, but these mugs are enough to suck the joy from the whole set. I wish they offered an option of practical (non-jumbo) mugs, so that fiesta purists could have these and people who want practical drinkware could have something comfortable.
The problem, as others have noted, is the handle. However for me it's not really the awkwardness of having to support the mug with just one finger. Rather, it's the way you have to brace it with your other fingers against the burning hot mug. The thing conducts heat like mad, and even the thickened bit under the handle is too hot for me to keep contact with for more than a quick sip. A mug should not be painful to use! I wind up holding it with two hands on the top and bottom edges, or waiting until it cools and drinking my beverage cold. That's if I use the mugs at all--we gave up on them and keep a separate set of mugs for our use and mostly just bring these out when we care if things look nice and match.
These things have been around forever, and it's obvious that a significant percentage of people just hate them. I just can't understand why over the years they haven't come out with an alternative.

Fiesta 453-119P Review by KATE JACOBSEN (GLENWOOD SPRINGS, COLORADO USA)

Several resturants in our area use these mugs because of their strength and certainly their varied colors that make any table setting look good. I personally love the handle design. It fits my hand and I just love the unique design of it.

Fiesta 453-119P Review by Sara Swihart (Fort Wayne, Indiana, USA)

I have these mugs. I bought them on sale, so I can't comment on the price. For really hot drinks, like coffee or tea, they might be uncomfortable to use if you have larger hands. I have small hands and have had no problems with the side of the mug burning me.
I also like how these coordinate with other colors. I have periwinkle dinnerware (dinner plates, salad plates, soup bowls, coffee cups, saucers), rose dessert ware (pie baker, jumbo mugs, jumbo saucers, JUST added these mugs, fruit bowls), and yellow salt & pepper shakers (they were on sale). I like how these all mix and match for a very colorful dinner setting.
