The simple LED at the front that uses a variety of colours to indicate things like charging, your ideal temp, and whatever customizable identity colour is the only other element aside from the Ember logo. With its minimal black or white aesthetic this mug looks great. This is not a light mug, as the base of the Ember Mug 2 is the built-in heating element that helps to keep your coffee a consistent temperature for over an hour! I’ll share a bit more about that in my second point, but I like the weighty-ness of the mug as it feels substantial, and also well-built. Ember delivers on all three of these points and more! Like any coffee mug, you want it to have that feel, like when you pick it up that it just feels right in your hand, that the handle is comfortable to grip, and that it’s nice to sip out of.

I’ve broken this down into three parts: Form, Function, and Fun. But let me share with you how I got to this point. Why in the world would I spend this kind of money on a coffee mug? Well I was so sold on my mug after just a few days of using it that I went out and bought one for my Dad for Christmas.

I had heard of Ember mugs prior to this, having seen them in a few retail locations over the past few years! But up until this point I will say that the price-point was a bit off-putting.Īnd maybe you have felt the same way. I was sent an Ember Mug 2 back in December.
