5.0 out of 5 stars Very Nice for diehard coffee drinkers
(function() { P.when('cr-A', 'ready').execute(function(A) { if(typeof A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel === 'function') { A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel('review_text_read_more', 'Read more of this review', 'Read less of this review'); } }); })(); .review-text-read-more-expander:focus-visible { outline: 2px solid #2162a1; outline-offset: 2px; border-radius: 5px; } I am an all day coffee sipper, but my coffee often cools down if I'm not paying attention. This Nextmug resolved that issue. The best way to use it is to put in hot coffee, put on the lid, and set your temperature. It's all very simple and it works perfectly. The cup itself feels very "high quality", and the cover is very strong and well made. Finally, I had a minor issue with mine; I wrote the company, they replied within 24 hours, and went above and beyond to make me happy. Great customer service is always the clincher for me. It's somewhat pricey, but you get what you pay for. I have no problems recommending this mug. Besides, if you don't like it return it within 30 days. Enjoy!
5.0 out of 5 stars FINALLY!! I have it!
I LOVE having a mug that keeps my coffee warm until the last drop. This is great for me and I use it every day. My only issue is I should have opted for the larger model. I would love to have that model and may give my mug to my wife and order the bigger mug. It works perfectly and I have exactly NO problems with it. I poor my hot coffee in the mug - switch it on and enjoy. I have found as I get near the bottom of the cup I have to switch it off because the element is pretty powerful and even too hot as I get to the last swallow! Love it!
5.0 out of 5 stars This cup is DIVINE!!!
Wow this cup is AMAZING? I have been looking for a cup that can self heat for a long time. Sadly, I am in the hospital frequently because I have lupus. Last year I was in the hospital 95 days. 😭 I really enjoy having a cup of hot tea but when I am in the hospital, I can’t leave my room because I’m usually REALLY sick. After the cafeteria closes, I can’t get a cup of hot tea in the evening (when I want it the most). My only option has been for a nurse to microwave a styrofoam cup in a microwave which automatically makes me not even want the cup of hot water. I have been looking for a long time to find a travel mug that could be my “hospital mug”. I’ve tried several options all of which failed. I came across this cup and thought it looked interesting and the reviews were really good. My first thought was “a $100 coffe cup ??? What has this first world self indulgent country come to??? Holy fart blossom that’s alot of money!!” However, 95 days of my life in a hospital SUCKS! And during that time there is very little joy or peace. So I thought to myself “why are you spending all this time lonely and miserable and for $100 you could enjoy a cup of tea and it would bring you so much joy and comfort”. My favorite color is pink and I was so pleased that the cup came in a rose color, which is a lovely shade of rose/pink. The cup is amazing. It has a good grip. The round shape is comfortable to hold in your hands. The handle is the right grip and is comfortable to wrap your fingers around. The weight of the mug feels solid but not heavy. It has the right weight to feel like you are holding a comfort mug. It’s compact enough with the charging base to easily stick in a small hospital travel bag. The texture of the cup is calming and the cup is easy to wash well in a hotel or hospital sink. If I could change anything about the mug it would be that it was just a smidge talker so that the charging cord could travel inside the mug with the lid on it. It just almost will close but not completely. That’s the only rhino I wish was different just because when I travel around I don’t want to lose one of the parts and it would maximum travel efficiency. That’s a small thing in comparison to the quality of this mug.Also, I was curious if I started with cold water (like I will have to do in a hospital), could the cup do more than just keep tea warm but rather could I start with a cup of cold water and get the water hot enough to steep the tea. The answer is YES indeed you can. I did an experiment at home with a cup of refrigerated water and turned the mug setting onto “piping”. I put a kitchen thermometer in the water to measure the temperature of the water when it started and then to see how long it took and how warm the water would get without the help of starting with hot water. It worked! It was a little bit slow (maybe 30 mins or so). But it did the job which is really amazing for such a small “device” of this sort. The water started at 43 degrees and it heated up to 140 degrees in around 35ish minutes. It did steep the tea perfectly! Wahoo.I loved my cup so much that I gave my first mug to a very special friend who works outdoors a lot farming in the north east where it is often very cold. She enjoys a cup of hot coffee to warm her frozen body while she is working. She is young and would have never bought herself an expensive coffee cup. However, she absolute loves the cup. Which means this is a very nice special gift to give someone who really loves warm drinks.Today I am ordering my replacement mug for my hospital bag.This is a very cool cup that works and I think it is absolutely worth spending $100 for the comfort and luxury this mug brings to life enjoyment.My story of my struggle with lupus is on YouTube if you search “Ballerina With Lupus”. It can give you some idea of what my hospital life is like and also my determination to fight to stay alive.God bless you if you have read to the end of this crazy long review. LolMelly
4.0 out of 5 stars Best when used as intended
I'm not sure what aspect of my being this comes from, but I was finding myself constantly grabbing a cold mug when I finally remembered it was there. I'd make a pot of tea, make my cup, intentionally let it cool, and one way or another it was too cool / cold by the time I got to it. I can't say that I've been monitoring how long it took for the mug to cool down, but it always seemed too quick. I was already looking for a reason to get a new mug as the rounder handle resulted in holding it in a painful way and it was frankly getting heavier to my hands as well (being ceramic). So I had a few reasons to look anyway.And with that in mind, I decided to look for something that might help with those issues or at the least, not let the cup's contents drop below a certain temperature Long enough for me to get around to drinking it, while also having a more comfortable weight and handle. Initially, I thought about those coasters that heat up, but felt that that'd be too much of a burn / fire hazard and likely not able to control the temperature as well. Seeing as how I didn't know what temperature I was waiting for it to cool down too, I knew that I'd want something with a measured setting. I was also looking for something that could heat up a cold cup to the desired temperature.When I first saw this listing, I was taken back by the price, but not so much that it kept me from looking into it. Especially since I have a habit of deciding on things that one way or another tend to push the budget. I looked at the various aspects of the design and saw that it was basically self-contained, so there was a little to no chance of being hurt by the mug (unless I spilled the contents on the upper two settings). Being able to choose from a known selection of temperatures was a must on this purchase. I also liked that the handle appeared (correctly) to be large enough to fit my average sized, closed grip. While I've not weighed it, it definitely feels lighter than a comparably sized ceramic. Most of its weight is, of course, the battery at the bottom.I was a bit bummed that the charger was a barrel plug as that doesn't allow me to just grab the nearest USB-C cord from my station (where I sit). That said, if it Did have USB charging, then it would have only been to the base anyway, so that would be a moot point since it would likely never get unplugged unless moved. While I don't know how much my old mug held, it's quite apparent that this is likely a few ounces less, but it's also exactly 1/3rd of the 1L pot when brewed vs ~2.5 fills with my old mug. I'm sure I'll get used to the difference eventually.Now, when evaluating the performance of this, it became apparent that I was running into my desired functionality vs its design. It has become obvious that this is designed to start with a hot liquid and keep it at the chosen temperature until empty or the battery runs out. It does that quite well, but I can't say how long the battery actually lasts for sure because I lose track of time too easy. So when I say that it 'feels' like it's losing power (not temperature) quicker than advertised, I can't quantify that statement, but it 'feels' closer to 2-2.5 hrs vs 4 hrs (lid on). I can say that I figured out that my comfortable temperature is the lowest setting and that the middle temperature more closely resembles my freshly brewed pot. The charging time feels like forever, but definitely a couple hours from depleted.Now when trying to see how it does with 'heating from cold', that definitely seemed to drain the battery much faster while also taking a long time. I even tried setting it to that middle choice and then turning it back down, but that still drained the battery rather quickly. So if That is how you want to use it, then leave it on the charger until it's hot again (and expect to wait a bit). I did have to stop myself from walking it over to the microwave the first few times until I got myself better trained with how it's designed. Because of this, as much as I hate adding to an already pretty penny, I chose to purchase a 2nd base to sit where I eat / drink. I thought about moving the original base, but then I realized that it was better to leave that there for when I've cleaned the mug (default storage location and all that).What improvements would I like to see?1) Make a slightly larger (16oz?) mug, but have it be taller so that the base and lids don't change.2) Source a higher density battery if possible.3) Increase the speed at which it warms up (if feasible).4) Add a little more texture to the handle / housing as it is metal smooth and slides a bit easy in the hands.5) Offer a closeable lid as that should prevent spills and likely assist in keeping it warmer longer.
5.0 out of 5 stars Love my Nextmug!
I've been using the Nextmug almost daily since December, and I didn't realize how much I appreciated having my coffee stay warm until I accidentally put it in the microwave and it no longer worked. I reached out to Nextmug, and they were so understanding and accommodating and sent me a new one! I am now back to enjoying my hot coffee while I work and it has made my mornings much more enjoyable!
KEEPS COFFEE HOT
(function() { P.when('cr-A', 'ready').execute(function(A) { if(typeof A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel === 'function') { A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel('review_text_read_more', 'Read more of this review', 'Read less of this review'); } }); })(); .review-text-read-more-expander:focus-visible { outline: 2px solid #2162a1; outline-offset: 2px; border-radius: 5px; } Had this for 2 years and still going strong wife loves it. Needed adapter to convert to Australian power socket. Would recommend 👌 to slow coffee/tea drinkers to keep drinks hot on a cold day or those very slow drinkers that microwave to make hot after go cold then this is your answer.
so Bad
its so bad not worth even 40$ so so bad😡😡😡
Perfect heated mug
Received product. Did not know needed Uk adapter for plug-should be in description. Otherwise would give 5 stars. However mug is fantastic. I set it on ‘hot’- lasts hours with cover on. Love this product.
Terrific, less expensive, alternative to the Ember
As a previous Ember owner, I'm very impressed with the NextMug.I decided to try the NextMug mostly because the little prongs on the Ember charge plates kept seizing up needing replacement of the charge coaster. It's hard to keep them dry all the time since they are always around liquid. Infrequent contact with liquid and the relatively weak springs under each charge contact prong, has resulted in 5 of my charge coasters seizing up over 2.5 years.I thought the elevated design of the NextMug's charge plate would result in them being less prone to seizing. We'll have to see about that over time.I also, of course, loved the price differential. The NextMug is substantially cheaper than the Ember. I also liked the many colour options. I was, however, concerned that at the lower price the NextMug would be of inferior quality. IT ISN'T.Indeed I prefer the shape, 'feel' and build quality of the NextMug over the Ember. I also prefer the colours. With Ember you can get any colour you want as long as its black or white (or at least that used to be the case). With NextMug you get a terrific rainbow of deep pastel colours to choose from.I've used the NextMug now for 6 months and love it. I like that I can use it/set it up without the need for an app. There is/was little value in the Ember's app other than being able to see how much battery was left - and it was a rather clunky app. It always takes time to sink up and the only thing I needed it for, the battery level indicator, wasn't on the home screen. You had to dig down to find it. The NextMug shows you right on the mug what your battery level is.The ONLY downside to the NextMug is that you have to turn it on. Ya, I know, quality problem to have. But after a couple years of the Ember Mug just turning itself on each morning when I poured coffee into it, I can't tell you how many times I have forgotten to press the On button on the NextMug to find lukewarm coffee when I take my first sip 20 minute later. That said, when I press the on button the coffee is piping hot again in just a few minutes. I've had the NextMug for 6 months now and I still forget to turn it on about half the time. Grrr! Old habits die hard.My hopes for a better charge plate, so far, have not been realized. About 6 months in the NextMug charge plate had to be replaced. It wasn't because the prongs seized though. In this case one of the two prongs broke off when I was cleaning it. There was a bit of gunk between the two prongs and I was cleaning it out with my fingernail and one of the prongs sparked and broke off. I wasn't pushing hard. I was purposely cleaning out the 'gunk' because I believe the gunk that had built up over time between the Ember prongs was part of the reason why they ultimately seized up all the timeBut the warranty replacement process was simple. All I had to do was email NextMug and ask for a replacement charge plate and they sent it out to me. I didn't need to show a proof of purchase or a picture of the damaged plate. They took my word for it. Ember also replaced all their broken charge plates (5 in total over the 2 and a half years I used it) within the one year warranty window. (Note: I had to buy two replacement ones of my own during that time after the warranty on the original and a replacement had ended). To replace under warranty, Ember required me (not unreasonably) to show proof of original purchase (a screenshot of my Bolo order) a photo of the damaged plate, and a photo of the serial number on the bottom of the damaged plate before they would send out a replacement. A bit more work than NextMug. That said, the NextMug person said that if I had needed a warranty replacement on the mug itself, then I would have had to have shown proof-of purchase. But not on charge plate warranty claims.Over the 2 plus years I used the Ember, the inside white coating had worn off making the inside looks really ugly. Also the life of the battery had more than halved. Meaning at the two year point the battery only lasted about 1/3 as long as when new. I'm guessing that the battery life of the NextMug will run down about the same over time too - like all rechargeable batteries do. Since I've only had it for 6 months so I can't compare them. But I also think the build quality and terrific interior coating of the NextMug will outlast that of the Ember. But I won't know that for sure for another year and a half.I wish BOTH companies had a little replacement charging nodule that could be swapped out of the charge plate. Maybe send a few extra with each mug because that is clearly the Achilles Heel of both products. The part that consistently failed on the Ember and, so far, has failed once on the NextMug. There would be no need to replace the entire charge coaster and charge cable if that little part that keeps breaking could be easily swapped out. I bet it would also save them a ton on warranty repair costs and shipping for them and such a swappable part would probably add only a $1 to the cost/price of the product.All in all, for the significant price savings, the build quality and the colour options and terrific customer service, I now recommend the NextMug over the Ember every time.
useful in cold weather
used this when i was on a trip to china in the winter. Very good once its fully charged.

As a previous Ember owner, I'm very impressed with the NextMug.I decided to try the NextMug mostly because the little prongs on the Ember charge plates kept seizing up needing replacement of the charge coaster. It's hard to keep them dry all the time since they are always around liquid. Infrequent contact with liquid and the relatively weak springs under each charge contact prong, has resulted in 5 of my charge coasters seizing up over 2.5 years.I thought the elevated design of the NextMug's charge plate would result in them being less prone to seizing. We'll have to see about that over time.I also, of course, loved the price differential. The NextMug is substantially cheaper than the Ember. I also liked the many colour options. I was, however, concerned that at the lower price the NextMug would be of inferior quality. IT ISN'T.Indeed I prefer the shape, 'feel' and build quality of the NextMug over the Ember. I also prefer the colours. With Ember you can get any colour you want as long as its black or white (or at least that used to be the case). With NextMug you get a terrific rainbow of deep pastel colours to choose from.I've used the NextMug now for 6 months and love it. I like that I can use it/set it up without the need for an app. There is/was little value in the Ember's app other than being able to see how much battery was left - and it was a rather clunky app. It always takes time to sink up and the only thing I needed it for, the battery level indicator, wasn't on the home screen. You had to dig down to find it. The NextMug shows you right on the mug what your battery level is.The ONLY downside to the NextMug is that you have to turn it on. Ya, I know, quality problem to have. But after a couple years of the Ember Mug just turning itself on each morning when I poured coffee into it, I can't tell you how many times I have forgotten to press the On button on the NextMug to find lukewarm coffee when I take my first sip 20 minute later. That said, when I press the on button the coffee is piping hot again in just a few minutes. I've had the NextMug for 6 months now and I still forget to turn it on about half the time. Grrr! Old habits die hard.My hopes for a better charge plate, so far, have not been realized. About 6 months in the NextMug charge plate had to be replaced. It wasn't because the prongs seized though. In this case one of the two prongs broke off when I was cleaning it. There was a bit of gunk between the two prongs and I was cleaning it out with my fingernail and one of the prongs sparked and broke off. I wasn't pushing hard. I was purposely cleaning out the 'gunk' because I believe the gunk that had built up over time between the Ember prongs was part of the reason why they ultimately seized up all the timeBut the warranty replacement process was simple. All I had to do was email NextMug and ask for a replacement charge plate and they sent it out to me. I didn't need to show a proof of purchase or a picture of the damaged plate. They took my word for it. Ember also replaced all their broken charge plates (5 in total over the 2 and a half years I used it) within the one year warranty window. (Note: I had to buy two replacement ones of my own during that time after the warranty on the original and a replacement had ended). To replace under warranty, Ember required me (not unreasonably) to show proof of original purchase (a screenshot of my Bolo order) a photo of the damaged plate, and a photo of the serial number on the bottom of the damaged plate before they would send out a replacement. A bit more work than NextMug. That said, the NextMug person said that if I had needed a warranty replacement on the mug itself, then I would have had to have shown proof-of purchase. But not on charge plate warranty claims.Over the 2 plus years I used the Ember, the inside white coating had worn off making the inside looks really ugly. Also the life of the battery had more than halved. Meaning at the two year point the battery only lasted about 1/3 as long as when new. I'm guessing that the battery life of the NextMug will run down about the same over time too - like all rechargeable batteries do. Since I've only had it for 6 months so I can't compare them. But I also think the build quality and terrific interior coating of the NextMug will outlast that of the Ember. But I won't know that for sure for another year and a half.I wish BOTH companies had a little replacement charging nodule that could be swapped out of the charge plate. Maybe send a few extra with each mug because that is clearly the Achilles Heel of both products. The part that consistently failed on the Ember and, so far, has failed once on the NextMug. There would be no need to replace the entire charge coaster and charge cable if that little part that keeps breaking could be easily swapped out. I bet it would also save them a ton on warranty repair costs and shipping for them and such a swappable part would probably add only a $1 to the cost/price of the product.All in all, for the significant price savings, the build quality and the colour options and terrific customer service, I now recommend the NextMug over the Ember every time.
useful in cold weather
