Know before you buy
To hear the iconic sound, fill the jug about three-quarters full. The noise is caused by air trapped in the tail of the fish design as you pour.
No, this jug is not dishwasher or microwave safe. We recommend hand washing it with warm, soapy water to preserve the ceramic finish.
The Gluggle Jug features an open-top design without a lid. It is designed to be held by the body of the fish, so it does not have a traditional handle.
The Large size is the most common choice for serving water or juice at a standard table, standing 8.5 inches tall. If you are serving a larger group, the Extra Large size offers more capacity at 11 inches tall.
No, the Gluggle Jug is not insulated. It is crafted from standard ceramic, so it will not maintain the temperature of your beverages for extended periods.
