Do your co-workers refer to you as “the one who always leaves half their coffee at the bottom of their mug”? In between checking your morning emails and ducking in and out of meetings, by the time you’ve returned to finish your cup of joe, it’s become a sad, cold latte. As it turns out, you don’t have to worry about coming back to a cold coffee after abandoning your piping hot cup if you grab yourself a temperature control smart mug.
Regardless of its make or model, smart mugs (otherwise known as mug warmers) will keep your coffee, tea or hot beverage of choice at your desired temperature, meaning slow sippers and forgetful humans like yourself can take all the time in the world to drink your morning caffeine hit.
Another perk of smart mugs is that you can also get travel mugs, so if you regularly commute to work and hate having your coffee go cold on the way in, you can just pour a cup into one of these bad boys and voilà: hot coffee. Some of them are even battery-powered, so you can set one up at your desk or in your kitchen. And if you’re pretty forgetful when it comes to boiling the kettle altogether, then try a smart kettle to keep your water boiled.
Ahead, we’ve rounded up some of the best temperature-control smart mugs that are well worth the investment.
