Ember Charging Coaster 2, Gold - for use with Ember Temperature Control Smart Mug

We have had the Ember mugs for a few years. The charging base for one failed and we ordered a replacement product. It arrive on time and works as advertised. It's a bit expensive but the base and mug work well to keep hot beverages hot. I would recommend the product!

Works as expected for my cherished Copper Ember mug. Recommended if you need Ember mug heating in other locales around your home.

Since I move around a lot it was nice to have the extra charger to keep my drink warm in multiple locations.

I bought my first Ember mug in February 2021. The base finally quit on me a couple weeks ago. One of the charging pins broke. The pins seem to be spring-loaded, and one of the springs must have broken - so one pin no longer made contact with the charging ring on the mug. My Ember mug has become a true guilty pleasure. They’re stupidly expensive — but I do love mine. When my base finally failed I didn’t hesitate to buy a replacement. After making my purchase I wrote to Ember and asked if I could send them my old broken base so they could recycle it. Sadly, they don’t do that, they instead advised me to take it to an eWaste drop off. They also offered to send me a replacement base even though I’m sure I’m out of warranty. If you’re considering buying a replacement base unit I’d advise you to contact ember customer support first.

I'm not happy to have had to buy a replacement coaster so soon after buying the mug, but I'm glad it was available. I didn't care about the color. My Ember mug is black, but the gold looks fine. At least my cup is charging again.
