Mr Clipr compared with other cup holders

There are several ways to carry your drink hands-free at a festival or event. The Mr Clipr is one of them, but how does it compare with other options on the market that try to solve the same problem?

Loose cup holders without a clamping mechanism

Some cup holders consist of a simple loop or strap without a firm clamping mechanism. These often hold an empty cup or closed bottle less steadily, especially while moving. The Mr Clipr has a silicone band that keeps the cup or bottle in place while you move, bearing in mind that a full open cup is better held during active movements such as dancing or jumping anyway.

Wrist straps and arm holders

Some alternatives are worn around the wrist or arm. However, that can feel awkward while moving and actually limits the freedom of movement of that arm. The Mr Clipr is attached to your belt, bag or clothing, so both arms stay completely free; with an empty cup or closed bottle it makes no difference how actively you move.

Cup holders that only handle cups

Many cup holders are made specifically for one type of cup. The Mr Clipr is suitable for both hard cups and soft cups as well as PET bottles, which makes it more versatile. Read more on our page about hard cup versus soft cup.

One-off gadgets versus a durable product

Where many gadgets break or are thrown away after one season, the Mr Clipr is designed for repeated, long-term use. Read more on our page about the Mr Clipr as a sustainable business gift.

Price versus lifespan

At first glance a cheap alternative seems more attractive because of the lower purchase price. But if you look at the lifespan and how often you have to replace a cheaper alternative, the comparison often turns out in favour of a sturdier, longer-lasting product such as the Mr Clipr.

Why the clamping mechanism is the most important difference

With almost every alternative on the market, quality ultimately comes down to one thing: how well the mechanism actually holds a cup or bottle while you move. A nicely designed product with a weak clamping mechanism doesn't solve the underlying problem, while a less eye-catching product with a strong mechanism does exactly what it is meant to do. The Mr Clipr was designed primarily for the latter, with its design as a logical result.
