If your primary goal is making standard mugs and larger functional pottery, a full-size VEVOR pottery wheel with a larger wheel head and more powerful motor (typically 25–35 cm / 10–14 in) would be a much better choice.

Water reservoir: It includes a removable splash pan to catch water and clay. Water is typically applied with a small bowl, sponge, or spray bottle—there is no built-in water reservoir.
Kids or adults: Although marketed for kids and adults, it is best viewed as a mini hobby wheel. It works well for adults making miniatures, ornaments, and small bowls, but it is not intended as a full-size pottery wheel for regular mug or bowl production.

This mini pottery wheel is intended for small projects and beginners rather than full-size pottery.
Continuous use: Suitable for extended sessions making miniatures, dollhouse pieces, and small crafts.
500 g mug: It is not recommended for throwing a standard 500 g mug. The 158 mm (6.2 in) wheel head and compact motor are better suited to smaller items.
Variable speed: Yes. It features adjustable variable speed control.
