I needed a jug to transfer water to my coffee maker without spilling it. Regular kitchen jugs never poured very well for me. This jug also has no handle to get in the way. Instead you place your thumb in the socket and use your fingers underneath on the side to hold it. It works quite well. I used tree supports -they come off fairly easily despite being inside the jug. I used ASA for this, as it is purely for quick water transfers, but a food safe polymer can be chosen.
