Tom’s Guide is big on great coffee, especially during our Prime Day deals. But there’s no point having the best coffee maker or knowing how to make espresso like a barista if you’re just going to drink your coffee out of a plain old mug every day.
That’s why you should know that the Ember Smart Mug 2 is on sale for 20% off for just $119 right now during Amazon Prime Day. That means 20% off a gadget that you literally use every day, and I know this firsthand because I use it that often.
We’re on the second day of Amazon’s two-day sale event, so we’re not sure how long this sale will last, but we’d definitely recommend picking it up.
To say this perk will revolutionize your mornings would be an understatement, and it will also be just as effective on those nights when you get so engrossed in a great Netflix show that you forget to bring a hot drink. This is a real game-changer for those times of the day when your drink might get cold.
The Smart Mug comes with an app that will easily notify you when it has reached your pre-selected optimum temperature. It works with both iOS and Android and also lets you customise the little LED light on the front of the mug to glow different colours depending on your preference.
80 minutes of battery life is plenty, but you can also place it on the coaster and it’ll stay warm all day. I don’t know anyone who needs a full day for a single cup of coffee, but this feature is available if you need it. The coaster charges the mug via two small gold pins, and the aforementioned LED lights up red while it’s charging.
One last thing to mention is the build quality: both the mug and coaster are made from ceramic, so they feel very premium, and as expected, they’re IPX7 waterproof – though you should still hand wash them and not put them in the dishwasher.
Unfortunately, this mug doesn’t come with a lid, so it can’t function as one of the best travel coffee mugs, but I still believe it’s one of the best investments for anyone who works from home regularly. The only drawback I found with Ember products is the price, but thankfully, this awesome Prime Day discount has fixed that issue.
