Best Norpro 5569 Decorative Cup Warmer
I read a ton of reviews for all the different cup warmers. None of them
seemed to work. This one does. The drinks stay hot, but not as hot as
when they were first brewed, of course. At least they aren't lukewarm.
The cup gets hot too so be careful. I even use it for my 32 oz Bodum
press tea pot. I set the pot right on the burner and my tea stays warm
enough to enjoy for hours - not scalding, but between warm and hot.
You have to start with hot liquid. It will not heat cold or lukewarm drinks. The bottom of the cup has to fit flat on the hot plate. Without full contact, you will lose the heat. A super thick cup won't keep the liquid as hot as a thinner one. I tried my 3/8" thick glass latte cup, but it stayed only lukewarm. My regular cermaic and glass coffee and tea mugs work perfectly. The wider the bottom of the cup, the better. A pedastle cup has less surface contact so less heat is transferred to the cup.
There's an on and off roller switch on the cord itself. It seems some other models don't offer that feature. I also like the chunky "marble texture" look of this one. The seller (not amazon) delivered very fast too (less than a week). I'm very satisfied.
