Troubleshooting
Mug has a chip or crack
Inspect the mug carefully. Minor chips may still allow for safe use in a microwave, but significant cracks or chips affecting the rim or base mean the mug should not be used to avoid potential hazards. Contact customer support if within the warranty period.
Design appears faded after washing
Ensure you are using a non-abrasive detergent and the dishwasher is not set to an overly aggressive heat cycle. Hand washing is recommended for preserving the vibrancy of the design over time.
Mug is too hot to hold after microwaving
While microwave-safe, the ceramic can retain heat. Use a mug handle or a coaster to handle the hot mug. Allow beverages to cool slightly before drinking.
