In it for the long haul

I've had six of the blue agate trigger mugs for at least 30 years now - the original six with no crazing, nicks, or roughness and they're used a lot. There are a number of other Bennington products in my home but these mugs are absolutely the best.

LOVE these mugs!

I purchased two of the trigger mugs when I visited earlier this year. My tea has never tasted better than it does in these mugs. It also seems to stay warmer longer. I broke both of them recently, so I am ordering more!

My Absolute Favorite Mugs!

Jun 1, 2017 | By Dan, Temple, TX

You cannot go wrong with these mugs! I bought 2 as seconds at the physical store in VT 4 years ago, and they are still looking great. Unique design, love the different ways I can comfortably hold the cup in my hand.

Family favorite

Our family has had trigger mugs for years. When my son was ten and visiting grandparents in NH, he told my mom he liked her mugs and drank everything from one every day. She sent him home with one. Now he's 29 and asked what happened to Grandma's mugs. He has the only one so I ordered a couple for him for Christmas. Today I found out my cousins have a set of dishes including some mugs! I love the finish of your dishes.

Love Bennington

Love the Bennington pottery. The color goes well in my country home.

A must mug!

Great glazing, weight and perfect handle. I got one in the late 90's from an antique store in California. It broke in 2004 --it took 14 years to think to look on the internet and reunite me with my favorite mug and Bennington potters.

Trigger Mug

My husband and I celebrated our 25th anniversary with a New England trip. And of course we toured your pottery facility and purchased our first blue agate. A trigger mug was one of the purchases which broke recently with much sadness on my end. A new trigger mug was purchased to add to my collection. Just love every piece I own!

Fits hand perfectly, comfortable and secure. And looks great too.

My hands enjoy the grip and feel.

I have been purchasing these mugs since the early 1970s. They are a true classic with a sturdy feel for grip. Especially if you have arthritis in your fingers.

Classic

Feb 13, 2019 | By Tom K., Hicksville, NY

My first trigger mug was from almost fifty years ago. I have had several over the years and just obtained two yellow ones for my wife. Excellent color texture and an all around classic.

beautifully made mug

Love it!

Feb 26, 2019 | By Gail, Marble Head, MA

We love the design of our new trigger mug. Very comfortable to grasp. The description said it holds 11 oz. capacity. We find it only holds 9 oz. tops. Not a problem as long as we set our coffee maker on a lower setting.

This is not my first Trigger Mug. They're great, the only coffee mug I use!

thanks

Perfect replacement for the one we broke the "trigger" off of..

Care and Feeding of your Trigger Mugs

May 16, 2019 | By Ed K., North Attleboro, MA

We originally bought these mugs in the summer of 2012 at the store in Bennington. We have bought replacements on two occasions. The first replacements (Element Green) were a little lighter than our originals. For the second reorder we asked for darker mugs and those shipped were a perfect match. Both times we were replacing mugs for chips on the rim, It finally dawned on me that the shelf where they were stored is crowded and the rims would clink whenever they were being put away. So we relocated a couple of items to make sure they would not bang into each other. So far, so good.

love this mug

the high quality standards in materials being used is what drove my purchase. the cool design and color choices made me even happier! the trigger mug is so nice to hold and it's simplicity in design is super appealing. i'm excited to start building my collection of bennington pottery!

Happy purchase

Jun 11, 2019 | By Bill, Georgetown, ME

These are my wife's morning favorite for her coffee. Just the right size and balance, and they keep the liquid hot longer than other cups she has used. We bought two of the about 20 years ago. One of them broke recently, so she has babied the one remaining. I was happy to see that Bennington Potters still make them, and that they are the same quality

beautiful craftsmanship

Jul 11, 2019 | By Alice P., Jenkintown, PA

I have been a customer for about 40 years and still add to my mug collection. I started with the modeling blue and now own light blue, pink and yellow. Still, have all my originals.
