Mugs to match nice dishes!, February 19, 2007
This review is from: Mikasa Antique White Coffee Mugs, Set of 4 (Kitchen)
Who really uses cups and saucers any more? Maybe for a formal company dinner or fancy tea party.
The cups that come with the sets of Mikasa Antique White dishes hold 8 ounces (with sipping room). These mugs hold 12 ounces. They have a great slim style and are made of a more refined china than most casual mugs. One consideration: they do not hold the heat like a big, clunky mug. So if you drink your coffee slowly, you may be zapping it more often.

Simple, Elegant Coffee Mugs, November 4, 2008
This review is from: Mikasa Antique White Coffee Mugs, Set of 4 (Kitchen)
I actually bought two sets of these cups for our coffee area here at work. We have a Keurig set up outside of our offices, and we wanted to purchase some mugs so that we could offer coffee to guests and visitors, especially when we're holding a meeting on our remote floor.
These mugs were perfect for our cause because they are both basic and still elegant. Not the most hefty mugs in the world, they are lighter than your average cafe coffee mug, but still seem sturdy in the hand. The first thing that comes to mind when I see them is "clean." And speaking of that, they are very easy to hand-wash in an area without a dishwasher. Wide mouths and spacey handles help in that area.
The only thing I'd complain about is the price, really; I did think they were a little on the steep side for a set of four mugs, and I guess that's the consumer paying for the name, Mikasa, which from my experience makes decent, but not top-of-the-line stuff. I think that if they were about $6 or so less than what I paid, I'd have given five stars, because I truly am satisfied with the purchase.
Now if the one mug that someone took and never returned would just come back, that would be perfect...

Inside of Mikasa Antique White Coffee Mugs Stain, February 9, 2008
This review is from: Mikasa Antique White Coffee Mugs, Set of 4 (Kitchen)
While these cups, purchased as a gift from a daughter, are a good size, feel comfortable in hand, and look nice, we were disappointed that coffee and tea stains remain in them. They have to be hand washed to get out the stains, and even with that, a lot of rubbing is necesssary. For this reason alone, I would not select them again nor would I recommend them.
