If you’ve been after a Le Creuset mug for years but can’t quite justify the £17 price tag for one unit, we’ve discovered a sneaky way to get one for just £1.

Adding a dash of luxury to your daily cuppa – and cupboards – Le Creuset is beloved for its high quality kitchen items that come highly revered by generations of culinary enthusiasts for its style and durability. From their classic and versatile casserole dishes to serving plates and tableware and mugs, having something in your kitchen from Le Creuset is a bit of a statement.

However, with some of their largest signature cast iron pots coming in at a generous £559, they’re not exactly purse-friendly. A slightly more affordable option is a stoneware mug, that comes in a variety of vibrant colours.

Now, depending on size and shape, these mugs are priced between £15 and £17 on Le Creuset’s website or from high-end retailers like Fenwick.

While that cost is perfect fine for some, especially with both sites currently offering a four for three discount ideal for refreshing your mug collection, there’s a way to get one for even less.

How? Well, when you sign up to TopCashback, you get a sign-up bonus of £15 when your first purchase is £15 or more on one item. On top of that, each partner has a cashback percentage too, which you’ll also receive on top of this bonus.

Now, it’s important to say that you will need to pay full price at checkout, however, within 7 working days the £15 bonus and cashback will become payable for you to withdraw. Sign up here.

If you want a smaller 100ml espresso mug from the brand, you can get it for free, reports WalesOnline.

On Fenwick, shoppers can choose from a colourful array of 21 shades in its larger mug collection, boasting options like chic white, cool teal, earthy bamboo green, vibrant cerise, sleek flint grey, fiery volcanic orange, sophisticated satin black, and delicate rose quartz.

The robust stoneware mugs promise to keep your tea and coffee warm with their specialist clay construction and high-temperature-fired glazes.

This make up ensures the colour of your mug stays put no matter how many times you refill. Scratch-resistant and a breeze to clean, these Le Creuset classics aren’t just dishwasher safe – they come with the reassuring backing of a 10-year guarantee.

They can even withstand heat from microwaves, grills and ovens; these mugs can handle it all without batting an eyelid.

It’s no surprise that with such qualities, customers consistently shower the mugs in praise. On the Le Creuset website, shoppers have left glowing reviews with an impressive average rating of 4.8 out of 5 stars.

One delighted customer gushed: “These mugs are brilliant, they not only handle well and keep drinks hot but also look stylish on my kitchen shelves. Fantastic design and quality and iconic style.”

Another happy mug owner chimed: “This is the perfect coffee mug. Feels great to drink from, lovely colours, solid and robust. We bought four in different colours, really pleased with them.”

A third raved: “Best mugs ever. Have had these for six months now and they are the most beautiful mugs to drink from. Been through the dishwasher countless times and no chips, scratches or fading – love these mugs and won’t use anything else.”

However, not everyone was sold on the charm of these kitchen favourites. A less impressed user shared their experience and said: “Too chunky for my liking. Mug is lovely colour but is too heavy and thick walled.”

Another added their two cents, remarking: “Look great but not living up to the hype. They really don’t hold temperature well and cool down quickly.”

Meanwhile, if you love the style but don’t fancy the Le Creuset price tag, Dawsons offers a set of six 312ml multi-coloured stoneware mugs at a hefty discount here on Amazon – they’re going for £16.99, only £2.83 per mug after a generous 43% reduction.

For colourful mugs that ooze charm and playfulness, Oliver Bonas’ Elio mugs are £10 and come in an array of colours from blue and orange to pink and green here.
