EmberTemperature Control Smart Mug 2, 14 Oz, App-Controlled Heated Coffee Mug with 80 Min Battery Life and Improved Design, GrayModel

*update* !! The mug still works awesome and I’m super happy with it…PLUS…I discovered that my yeti travel cover fits in it!!! This extends the 80 mins of heat to MOST OF THE DAY (at 120F) if you can get ahold of a travel lid then you’ll love it even more!!!I tried out Ember, Nextmug and a coffee cup warmer. I chose Ember and here's why:(For context I am a busy mom and I drink one cup of coffee per day. I tend to sip on that cup all morning long. I like to bring it around the house with me, often settling in one area for long periods (like to do a craft or do computer).I chose the Ember mug and here's why not the others:1) The warmer- I couldn't bring the mug around the house with me, it had to always stay on the warmer. Also, as I drank the coffee down, it got hotter and hotter (less to heat). I had to keep turning the warmer down. Twice I forgot I left the warmer on and left the house and it stayed on all day. The warmer was also very hard to clean if you got a ring on it because it gets baked on. Literally I could not get the ring stain off. Lastly, the coffee tastes super gross after a few hours. Not sure why...but the heat from the bottom does something to it.2) Nextmug - I didn't like the shape of the mug. It looks deep but actually half of the mug is the heating element so it's not deep. Mine kept shutting off randomly, like within 10 mins of setting it, maybe it was defective? It also seemed to get hotter as the liquid became less like the warmer did.3) Ember - immediately I could see the temp on the app as soon as the liquid hit the cup, which I thought was NEAT! It turns its self on automatically when the coffee is put in it and goes to the last setting you set it at. It keeps it at that exact temperature regardless of how much is left in the cup (yay!). Thus it never overheats the coffee and the coffee stays delicious. I can take it all around the house and it is sturdy, looks cool and is nice and deep. It does shut off a lot sooner (from inactivity) than others, BUT it heats back up again surprisingly quick, so I'll take it.Others have voiced connectivity issues. I have an iphone14 pro and it hasn't had any trouble yet, but I just got it.For the record I was hoping I could control it via the app even when I wasn't home (like turn it on and off remotely) but it doesn't work that way. Since it's bluetooth and not wifi controlled you have to be near it for it to work.Good luck friends!

I love my Ember mug. Bought it as a Christmas present to myself. The one thing that’s a little wonky is the battery indicator on the app. It will get stuck at 85% charging level for a long time and then eventually will push up to 100%. The battery works fine it’s just a wonky thing. Otherwise a great product. I’ve found that cheaper coffee tastes better when it stays a good temp. I usually set coffee at 138 and tea at 141. Love the ability to set and save presets at lots of temps. A quality item that is somewhat life changing. They are expensive though.

I've been using this mug for a little more than one month now and it was working absolutely great. One morning I go into the app and it's not set up anymore, I figure that sucks but not a big deal, I'll just set it up again ... nope .. Will not pair anymore, can't find it in Bluetooth on my phone or any other. Tried factory reset several times with no luck also. Still seems to come on but I have no control over temperature or lights ... not really happy with this one and would not purchase again.

Coffee drinkers have something in common. Coffee is perfect as soon as brewing has been completed, and it goes downhill from there. It quickly cools or, if kept on the burner or hot plate, it gets bitter pretty fast. Now imagine a "smart mug" that keeps the same temperature all the time and, as having been brewed through a K-cup pod, it hasn't any grounds at the bottom, maintaining its fresh and just having been brewed flavor and temperature perhaps all day. That defines the Ember Temperature Control Smart Mug 2. I didn't believe it could behave as advertised and you would be right not to believe it either. It has an internal battery that communicates with a nicely fit coaster. The mug on its own knows when there is coffee inside and proceeds to maintain the temperature you have programmed. The battery in the mug is good for more than an hour, if you're on the move, and for as long as needed if the mug is set on its coaster. It's all electronic and so the unit doesn't get hot. And the mug itself is very sturdy. I have lost a few mugs when drying them after washing and having the handle break off in my hands. Not with this one. It appears to actually be a perfectly molded metal cup with a ceramic baked exterior. So, the handle can't break off. I am careful when washing the mug to try to keep the bottom side dry, but the company says the mug can be fully submerged in water. This mug is like alien technology! Okay, it's pricey when compared to a mug you'd buy at your favorite discount store, but take the total cost and divide it by the endless number of perfect cups of coffee and you will see that it's actually a bargain. I don't know how I ever did without it.

This is the best gift ever. Great value, keeps coffee hot to your temperature, and the cup stays cool to touch... very easy to use. The handle feels great, and the cup functions well.

How often do you buy a product that your significant other delights in to the point of commenting each morning for the first month? If you like your coffee or tea hot, yet you drink it slowly, then this is for you.I purchased two of them and our daughter-in-law like ours, so we bought her one. Now the downside: One failed after a couple of weeks. It flashed an error sequence of lights and would not charge. I texted the company who replied the same day asking for a short video of the flashing light and a photo of the bottom of the mug. I sent both of those immediately. I then did not hear from them for over a week. a couple of texts asking for an update got no response. I then contacted the seller asking for a return and refund. They responded asking that I contact the manufacturer first. I told them I had, but hen coincidently the manufacturer contacted me the next day saying a new mug was in the mail. It along with the other 2 mugs purchased have worked flawlessly for two months.
