these look great but the handle is the worst fucking design, you can only put a single finger in so it's essentially going to freely rotate down without something to stop it, the underside of the handle is angled away from your other fingers so you can't hold it in place with them so the only thing that can apply force is your thumb but there's a curve on the handle so you cant apply any force at the back of the handle where it's needed to hold it in place and stop it from dropping and to top it off the handle extends away from the cup more than normal to increase the leverage of the weight inside the cup down even more by being further from the fulcrum point making it even tougher to stop it tipping.
