The Ember Smart Mug is made from premium materials, the charging coaster can keep your drink at optimal temperature all day, and the battery life is pretty good if you don't use the coaster while drinking. And if you're burying yourself in work (as I often do), you may forget about your drink until it's too late. I also just like to have a mug of coffee while I work to help me feel energized and focused. Yes, one could argue that the person should just drink the beverage faster, but some of us like to sip and savor our morning coffee or tea. While this fancy mug costs a pretty penny, I think that it's worth it if you drink coffee or tea at home, and often get tired that it's cold by the time you finish it.
