Why the two-handled mug with discreet internal cone is so popular
Independent drinking
The two-handled mug with discreet internal cone has been thoughtfully designed to increase control while drinking. The handles are comfortable to hold in several positions or slide the fingers or hands through. The two handles provide many possible ways to drink according to individual needs.
The internal cone helps to drink without the need to tip the head or raise the arm.
Discreet lids
The optional discreet lid attachments offer greater control and prevention of spills while moving the mug and while drinking. You'll find the lids have different shapes to suit all individual needs.
Adding the funnel attachment turns the two-handled mug into a handy sippy cup for adults!

Two-handled mug FAQs
Can a mug have two handles?
Yes! Two-handled cups, although a little difficult to find, are available. Two-handled cups allow us to use both hands to support the cup for less stress on painful joints and fingers.
Two-handled mugs are a fantastic drinking aid that can support individuals with arthritis, motor impairment in the arms, hand, fingers, numbness, impaired fine motor skills, Parkinson's and shaky hands (tremor) in their designs.
Things to consider when purchasing a two-handled mug
Two-handled mugs can be hard to find and are generally more expensive than the average mug. So, it's important to make the right choice. Here are come considerations to help you choose the right two-handled mug for your needs:
WEIGHT OF THE TWO-HANDLED MUG
Depending on individual needs, a lighter mug can be easier to handle and place less stress on the fingers, hands and arms. A heavier mug may help with control for people with tremors and shakiness.
SHAPE OF THE HANDLES
It is important that the two handles are comfortable to hold. Generally, thick handles with plenty of space to grasp the handles best supports holding and using the mug. Often, people with arthritic hands will prefer to slide hands or fingers through the handles rather than grasping the handles as this can be uncomfortable. A two-handled mug that allows for holding in this manner can be a relief when drinking. If this is the case, consider also if the mug will be too hot to hold and if an insulated mug is a better option.
PRACTICAL CARE
Being able to put the two-handled mug into the dishwasher or microwave offers convenience. As two-handled mugs are often pricier than a typical mug, you want to make sure the quality is sound.
OPTIONAL LIDS
Some two-handled mugs have discreet drinking lids that may be just what you need! Optional lids can be attached to prevent spills when moved or when drinking.
APPEARANCE
Let's be honest, some two-handled mugs aren't very aesthetically appealing, they almost look like they belong in a hospital. Keep an eye out! There are some nice two-handled mugs out there - like the Ornamin two-handled mug with discreet internal cone that we stock here at The Independence Shop ;)

Very happy,fast delivery, nice colour and very light mug
Thank you so much for your positive review Chez! We are glad to hear that you are happy with your two-handled mug and that it arrived quickly. Enjoy your new mug!
I am 80 years old and a very strong supporter of Australian-owned companies.
I needed a special "Information Clock" for my wife who has short-term memory loss. I checked several websites and selected The Independence Shop as they are Australian and their presentation was good quality.
They sent follow-up emails and I thanked them for their information and their business style. I will deal with them if we need other seniors-helpers and refer our friends when they need them.
I wish Chris and Rosie best wishes for their future.
I purchased four products, each has proved good value, easy to use and three had no batteries to chase after.
What I also liked was this was a local business with personal delivery which was very prompt.
The Independence Shop staff (one in particular) are very helpful and go above and beyond to respond to online queries. Service fast and efficient, and goods despatched promptly. Well done, team!
We ordered our products for free local delivery, and couldn't be happier! They were delivered within the hour! I almost fell over! Plus great quality products for around the home and garden. Can definitely recommend The Independence Shop, especially for Bribie Islanders.
I had an excellent experience. They have a wide range of products for independent living. Very happy with their service and to support a small Aussie business :-) Will definitely purchase from them again!
Highly recommended. Found some great daily living aids and super gift ideas over the Xmas period from this online shop! My order arrived quickly and was well packaged.
Great service!! I purchased through www.theindependenceshop.com.au and they delivered locally to mum in Bellara within the hour! Happy with the seatbelt reacher and Handybar that we purchased for the car, quality Stander products. Can recommend buying daily living products from The Independence Shop.
It's really nice to know what's available to support my elderly mother. I've tried to find useful things previously and it's not easy from one reliable place.
