Mug comparison

[Bob700]

Hi
Does anyone have an opinion on mugs Rhino v Orca v Xpres 5013, it would be interesting to see opinions

[Justin]

Nothing compares to 5013 imo but you're paying a premium for that quality.

Hi Justin
That's what I'm using just now, the Orca mugs from MDF were fading very quickly, now I'm having trouble with their photo slates they are good for keyrings and wooden coasters but not much else in the way of sublimation

I went through this a few months ago

11oz for xpres -horrendous print quality, very patchy.
5013 xpres excellent (though expensive)
Raja same quality as 5013 same price, complete ball ache to deal with
Transfer Press (actually a Raja mug), good to deal with, same price as xpres 5013

Now the outlier

Signzworld - UK site has probably the worst reputation possible! Ohhh hang on "Good reputation" on Temu. So I ordered a box through Temu. They were cheap, I mean so cheap the RSPB visited me to see what all the cheaping was about.... They came in their own postal boxes, hence overall cost really cheap! Arrived on time, well boxed, no damage, all mugs look free of obvious defects. They have printed well. Will they last or fade? I haven't a clue!

Am I brave enough to recommend Signzworld? No.

I remember the days of RN coated mugs, I never had a thought of a bad print with them, in fact I've still got one and the print is showing no sign of fading after nearly 20 years
