I like a mug that keeps things hot, as I often get distracted right after I make a cup of tea. I prefer a tall mug with a handle with finger molds and a lid. However, I have a K-Cup machine and tall mugs don't fit under it. I am looking for a 16 or 18 ounce short mug for using at home.
Funny, I never get rid of a mug. I also have about 20 that I never use.

One thing I will not use is a plastic mug. They just don't keep stuff hot. Of course I do have a set of Tervis mugs and I love them as well. http://www.custom.tervis.com/

Top of my list: A handle I can get more than two fingers through. Two or less - trash can.
Something with a little weight to it. Light mugs aren't, if you know what I mean.
I've always thought that in a mixed environment (work or any other place where a group leaves mugs out) an area with a surface you put your name on, like credit cards, would be cool.

No mugs with chrome or metal lettering on them, you can't put them in the microwave.

I am really picky about my mugs. I love (and collect) fine dainty porcelain mugs. My favorite mug is an "Old Country Roses" mug or really.. any thin lipped mug. I don't really care for chunky, clunky big mugs but if that's the only thing going I'll be happy to drink my morning coffee from it.
