Tools and Hardware Reviews of Princess International Smart Mug With Temperature Control Red - Princess International PI168R
Customer Review: No problem if you follow directions & use common sense!
Summary: 4 Stars
The only problem I've had with this is that I wish they'd made a little lip on the lid to make it easier to pry off--wedging my short fingernails in there between the lid & the rubber gasket is sometimes downright painful, but you can also use something like a knife blade to pry the lid off. I love the fact that it beeps every time it brings the drink back to the set temp--reminding me it's there & to drink it; I'm starting to feel like one of Pavlov's dogs, drinking on the command of a beep! I also love that I can drink my coffee or tea slowly, sipping over as long a period as I want, & have it still be hot.
RE: other comments: 1)Of COURSE you shouldn't have it plugged in with nothing in it! (I'm pretty sure the packaging SAID that.) 2)You won't get the outside wet if you UNSCREW the liner & wash ONLY the liner, like you're supposed to! 3)This is the first one I got & I've used it for a couple of years & it has never overheated/melted/smoked; sometimes when you get down to only having a couple of ounces left in it the liquid gets a little hotter, but that's understandable since those last couple of ounces are down in the metal bottom of the liner right next to the heating element. 4)I have occasionally had some trouble with the plug in the cigarette lighter of fleet cars I drive not seeming to be keeping a solid connection (you wiggle the plug & the lights on the mug flash on briefly), but I always assumed the problem was the car, since they're old vehicles. I also discovered that sometimes when I thought the cig. lighter outlet wasn't working because no temp was showing in the window on the mug, it was just that I hadn't yet hit the button to set the temp.
Maybe the reason for the vastly varying reviews is that not all of these are being manufactured in the same place?
And since Amazon put my business name on this, let me assure you that no, I do not sell these.
Customer Review: Not Hot Enough
Summary: 3 Stars
160 degrees may seem very hot but in reality its just bordering on hot--would be nice if temp setting went up another 15-20 degreesCustomer Review: Red heated mug for auto
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this heated mug for my wife. She loves her coffee very hot and this can keep it very hot or heat it up if she has left it in the car without power. A great gift.Customer Review: SMART MUG
Summary: 1 Stars
I recently received this item for Christmas....the first one I got did not work at all...the second one stopped working after three uses...I am currently using a third one and it does not control the temperature at all. It is very dangerous since the temperature on the coffee just keeps getting hotter and hotter. I almost burned myself on it today. I will be returning this item and will not try a fourth one. Three strikes and you're out! I would not recommend this item to anyone. It does not work properly and is very, very dangerous and could cause serious injury. I am very disappointed in its performance.Customer Review: Should include a smoke alarm
Summary: 1 Stars
The first 2 melted down and filled the car with smoke. The third one worked well for 3 months and stopped heating. Steer clear of this product and if you do use it make sure you car insurance is paid up.
