    Keeping a mug hot sounds good but in reality its not that good when the battery drains in an hour or less. Save the 100 and just microwave that mug.

    So far, i love my new Ember mug. The 14oz keeps coffee at temp for at least the 45 min it takes for me to drink. Only been 2 weeks, but no complaints.

    We like our cups so much we take them with us on vacation. They simply work great. I'm a sort of craft coffee brewer and am always looking for a way to make my coffee even more enjoyable

    Pros: my cofffee is definitely more enjoyable, for longer Cons: poor battery life (around 1 hr) This should be priced at around $50, not $150

    Wife loves it! Keeps her coffee hot for over an hour off the charger. If you get the silicone top off of Amazon you can extend the battery life of it!

    Poor customer service response

    It was great until it wasn't. I have purchased 3 of these mugs and all 3 had an issue with the pin on the charger pad getting stuck down and no longer working. Ember customer support responded immediately to the first 2 and sent replacement charger pads right away. The 3rd mug is about a year and a half old and has both the charger pad issue and it also no longer charges. I reached out to Ember support over a month ago and have followed up with them multiple times and they have not responded at all. I would expect a mug that costs almost $200 to last longer than a year and a half. I'm not sure what happened with their Customer service, but it went from great to abysmal. I would not recommend this product due to product quality issues, lack of customer service response and a very quirky app that constantly disconnects.

    Purchased for my wife for Christmas, first day she used it she txt me and said "this is a total game changer!" She would take all day to finish a tea or coffee, which meant it was cold most of the day. With the base it will stay hot all day, or 80 minutes if she is walking around with it away from her desk. Already purchased a second base so she has one for home and work.

    Wife absolutely loves it. Bought a second charging coaster so she can charge it all night by the coffee maker downstairs and keep it charged all morning at her desk upstairs while she uses it.
