Ember - Temperature Control Travel Mug - Matte Black

The mug battery would die on my second cup of coffee. I suggest buying a thermal mug. Do not waste your money!

I wanted to like this product. The more I use it the less I like it. The good: it does heat up the coffee, it is sturdy, does not leak, looks nice. The bad: heats up slowly. For instance, with creamer takes a while to get up to temperature si ve the cold creamer bring the coffee temperature down after it brews. It also thinks it’s empty when the coffee is there. Once it heats up and you open to drink the coffee splatters everywhere because of the pressure built up. Makes a mess. Your clothes will be splotched. I put my hand over it and of course all over my hand then need to wash off. If you’re driving this is bad. See what I mean. The battery will last enough to only heat the one time then Luke warm coffee if you don’t recharge. The charger works as expected with reasonable recharge time. A great concept but too expensive for so many drawbacks and I bought it on sale! I’ll keep a look out Ember. Ball is on your court. You can do it.

Originally I wanted to buy a white one but Best Buy only had black. I’m glad that I got the black one. The drink will stay at the temperature you select using the dial at the bottom of the cup or on the Ember app. Once charged it will cool the drink down to desired temp and maintain it there for approx 2 hours. However since I work at a desk I just leave the cup in the charging dock and it keeps it warm all day. I ended up buying two so I can have one at home too. My second one is white and it stains on the outside pretty quickly, wish I would have gotten a black one instead. One only thing is if you are traveling more than 2 hours, the battery will die and no way to charge it as there is no car charger for it. I’d be happy to change it to 5 stars when they come out with the car charger.

I bought this as a gift for my father. He enjoyed the cup for the first 2 weeks. Kept his coffee hot for a few hours which is really nice. With that being said, after 2 weeks we started having issues with the charging and battery of the cup. Now, I’ve reached out to Ember directly, and we are working on getting a replacement. If this cup did not fail after 2 weeks, it would have a 5-star rating.

This is not a good purchase. Its just not. It doesn't REALLY do a good job of holding temps..... Because the battery it terrible. My gf and I had bought this to try from deal of the day and thought it's worth the gamble. It's not even worth trying to be honest. We wanted to love it so much more. Very disappointed. The battery life is terrible. And that's a big deal if your traveling and want your coffee to stay hot. Another con is the charging pad. You have to sit it in the pad it comes with. If it was wireless and we could take it anywhere in the world and just use a wireless pad?! Omg! Worth a million bucks! But! Provided you get one pad.... You also have to carry THAT around with you.... To charge it where ever you get to. (work if 40 Mins away. Cups dead. Can't charge it at work unless you bring the pad. And then it's 40 Mins back) just not worth it guys. Save yourself the hassle.

This is a nice idea but when u are obsessed wuth white teeth you dont want to pour coffee in ur mouth cause it stains your teeth so I like to use a straw to drink my coffee. Lid does not allow a straw in the slot. Maybe the 2.0 version considers this functionality.... Also pricey so wait on sale to purchase!

I enjoy drinking my coffee with the travel mug but the technology needs improvement. The bluetooth on the travel mug seems to be off when trying to connect with my phone most of the time, also travel mug highest temperature is 62.5 degrees celsius. If you leave your coffee for a couple of hours and it’s cold the travel mug would say it’s empty while it’s full half way, I would like the travel mug 3 to have more on high temperature and better battery life.

Hello All, Like most people here I like to explore new items that are cool that are designed to make life easy or better. In this case the price tag does not meet expectations. I bought both the Travel and Ceramic Mug and found that the Travel mug's battery discharged faster than the ceramic Mug. So I did some tests and sent it off to ember support to see if they can replace or repair my mug. Here are my results. Test 1 - Cold to Hot Both Mugs 100% Battery Liquids - 78 Degrees F Desired Temperature - 132 Degrees F Results: 30 Mins in to the test: Ceramic Mug - 65% Battery Travel Mug (With Lid On) - 0% Battery Test 2 - Maintaining a temperature Both Mugs 100% Battery Liquids - 141 Degrees F Desired Temperature - 141 Degrees F Results: 10 Mins in to the test: Ceramic Mug - 95% Battery Travel Mug (With Lid On) - 78% Battery 45 Mins into Test: Ceramic Mug - 50% Battery Travel Mug (With Lid On) - 0% Battery Working with their support team they claim that's the expected results about 1 hour of usage from the travel mug, and they where amazed how the ceramic mug was over performing… Well if the price of having a drink at the same temperature for less than an hour for $160 USD, then please count me out. I could by a decent travel mug that holds more liquid for under $60 USD. So thanks ember for wasting my hard earn money on a product that is not worth the price
