Gonna go against the grain here but my experience with this mug was terrible. The mug would only connect if I repaired it every single time I wanted to use it.I have an Android phone and from what I have read from reviews it plays nicely with Apple not so much with Android, which was my case. The battery life sucked. If I just left the phone on I would watch the battery drop 5-10% in five minutes time not doing anything. I tried putting half cup of lukewarm water in it and heating it up to 145 degrees . It couldn't do it. It stayed around 110 for over 30 minutes and the battery dropped over 50% during that time. Contacted customer support. They told me to pour something in that was 165 degrees and see if that works. Well yeah. It's gonna seem like it works because I am putting something in that is 20 degrees hotter. I did it. Still didn't work. The worst part is I sent 3 different emails back and they ignored every one. They don't have phone support either.. I probably would give another one a crack, but after they ignored me and I spent $100+ on a coffee mug, I'm done. Returned it. Sucks too because I really wanted this to work. Just my experience.

Isn't it cheaper to make another cup or use one of the cheaper heaters, $100 after tax price seems ridiculous to me.

Bought one for the wife for Christmas and just ordered this for myself. It's completely unnecessary and a frivolous bougie expense.

However, it works perfectly and is incredible.

Did have some issues updating the firmware (for a coffee mug..
I know) but got it to work eventually by hitting the power button on the mug when it hangs at 50% trying to reconnect.

🤷

Quote from hedson :
For those who argue a thermos mug will do the same job for cheaper, here's my views:
1. this mug is energy inefficient, no doubt about it
2. the major point of using this mug, is to keep the beverage at the preferred drinking temperature, no other mug can do the same unless you use an external device to control the ambient tempreture
3. too expensive, yes, not ceramic (health concern - ceramic coating over metal), yes, capacity sucks - the bottom part of the mug is used to control temperature
You mentioned thermos mug, then proceeded to not list any points concerning thermos mugs.

Just put coffee in thermos, temperature should be extremely close to starting temp unless you left it open for well past the time it takes to drink the coffee.

If the price was sustainable they wouldn't be nearly a constant promotion on Slickdeals, see you at <$50!

This cup changed my life. I'm a coffee fan and not having to use a tumbler or thermo has made my enjoyment of coffee 100x better. It's the only cup I use now.

Don't buy these. The inside chips like crazy from regular hand washing.

If you paid for this you need to reevaluate your life.

To whomever who purchases such a "thing"... I hope you tip well too!

Such frivolous, unnecessary smartened crap.
It's obviously aimed at a very specific demographic, same that buys a new top of the line iPhone each year.

That's what I'm thinking. They're a lot cheaper, better ones have temp control, you get to choose your own mug, and if it breaks, you buy a new one for $5-$10. Might not be quite as nice as this, but seriously, if you care about coffee that much, wow.

I put mine in a double wall insulated mug with a sipping lid and it works for way longer than 80 minutes keeping things hot. I'd bet anything that my simple insulated mug is going to last way way longer than this device, and I'll be using it long after this mug is cluttering up the dark recesses of kitchen drawers and mucking up landfills.

I put in just a few ounces of hot coffee at a time into my mug. Gets to perfect drinking temp quickly. Adds lots of steps for exercise in the morning, too.

Quote from Karau614 :
Already have 2 at our home but ordered 2 more for the lake house as well. Why not save $20. So many people online hating how others spend money. It's highly entertaining. I'll enjoy my perfect temp coffee and laugh at these comments all morning.

Also, they work great. I enjoy my coffee at a constant temp if the children slow my drinking on said morning before their nanny shows up and I can then drink coffee quickly as the work day starts.
Why not have the nanny microwave your mug? When my Lamborghini gets cold I have my nanny drive it around the block a few times before getting in.
