Two-Handled Mug: Extra Stability for Reduced Grip or Mobility
The Two-Handled Mug is a lightweight melamine mug with a handle on each side, giving more control to anyone with reduced hand function, limited grip or limited mobility. It is designed to look like a china mug, so it fits naturally onto a table at home rather than standing out as specialist equipment.
Because it is made from melamine rather than china, the mug is lighter to lift and carry than a standard mug, which makes a real difference for a family member who finds a full mug heavy or awkward to hold with one hand. It weighs 126 grams and holds 400ml of fluid, suitable for both hot and cold drinks. The mug is dishwasher safe, although it is not suitable for use in a microwave.
- Two handles spread the weight of a full mug across both hands, making it easier to lift and hold steady.
- Lightweight melamine build reduces the effort needed to pick the mug up compared with a standard china mug.
- Designed to look like an everyday mug, so it can be used at the family table without drawing attention.
- Available in four styles, plain, blue, white with pattern, or yellow with flowers, so a family member can choose one they like.
For a family member with reduced hand function, limited grip or limited mobility, holding a full mug with one hand can be tiring or risky, especially with hot drinks. The two-handled design and lighter melamine build are intended to make everyday drinks safer and easier to manage independently at home.
An optional discrete lid is available separately. It sits inside the mug, is made from clear, food-safe plastic, and has a small hole for sipping fluid or holding a straw, helping to reduce spills and the risk of scalds from hot drinks while keeping the mug looking like an ordinary cup.
