Do you remember when insulated cups and mugs could do this for $20? Pepperidge Farm (or Thermos) remembers.

 

[Choco Taco]

Sure, but after you lose your 4th thermos, you're losing money every time.

[Do I need to mark this as sarcasm? I feel like I probably need to mark this as sarcasm...]

I’ve never lost a Thermos, but you are definitely talking about my father. Problem is, he would lose this fancy one too. 😂

This is so laughable. I have several insulated cups and mugs I never paid more than $10 for that keep my beverages hot or cold for much longer than three hours.

Excited for when CoffeeMugOS 2.0 public beta drops!

“Ember's temperature-controlled mugs are designed to keep your coffee or other hot beverage at your desired drinking temperature for up to three hours”

My yeti does that for longer than 3 hours 🤔

ANY decent thermo mug can keep coffee hot for over 3hrs. Funny as hell.

You can get a really good travel mug that keeps hot beverages hot for around US$20 to US$25. No thank you for this unusual travel travel mug.

Yea can lose that seven times and pay the same price.

Thus the FindMy integration-- problem solved!

For $199.95, it's a bit too expensive or am I tripping?

Wowser @TheYayAreaLiving 🎗️ we must be tripping … was gonna share this in group but not sure now LOL

 

[rjjacobson]

Who would buy this??

not me at $200

 

[rjjacobson]

I predict a cool front from the north settling over the sales plains negating all the hot air the overpriced product advertising emits.

I can buy a lot of Apple polishing cloths for $199.

Yep and for much less just a couple of the cloths that @TheYayAreaLiving 🎗️ wants me to buy LOL

 

[TheYayAreaLiving 🎗️]

not me at $200

I wouldn't even buy it if it was even priced at $20.

Very true I have nice mugs that keep coffee warm in car too much and too useless to me as well @TheYayAreaLiving 🎗️

That wouldn't help him. He loses his stuff in the abyss.

 

[nwcs]

I don’t drink coffee so this would be a waste on me but why not get a Yeti and get half or more the time at 1/10th or so the cost and it won’t go obsolete after a year or so…

 

[Analog Kid]

That wouldn't help him. He loses his stuff in the abyss.

Has Gurman commented on whether Apple's has a solution the abyss problem yet? I've been away for a few days...

 

[GermanSuplex]

Does the lid have an airtag holder, in case I forget the lid?

I'm sure this is a worthy purchase for someone, its just hard to believe that there's a big enough market to produce all these smart products. But clearly, people are buying them because they keep making them.

 

[Kebabselector]

Fools and their money are easily parted.

 

[Kiimora]

I have no words , do people actually lose their mugs !!

“The addition of Find My support enables users to track the location of the mug in the Find My app”

How about check the sink or the dishwasher 🤷🏻‍♀️

 

[beermode]

The ghost of Skymall is back.

 

[Lioness~]

Holy Mother, who pays that for a mug? Ah, well some obviously do.
Temperature control sound good though, but not worth that kind of money.
It gotta be insurance included for that price 😉

Klean Kanteens insulated mugs etc. are good enough for me.

 

[spartan1967]

Is it dishwasher safe?

 

[DracheMitch]

My whole life, all I've been waiting for is a drinking vessel that requires charging.

 

[Lioness~]

I was thinking that you could probably get a portable expresso-machine for that price.
You even get 2 😊

Probably more useful than another Ember in the Apple/Mac world – the abandonware app by Realmac Software.
