I have a large thick plastic mug that I drink out of.

It is 20 years old.

I would not be able to drink my coffee as hot as I like, it if I used a glass mug.

The glass gets too hot and it burns my lips.

My plastic mug does not get hot on the outside.

The mug warmer would not work with my plastic mug.
