Whether at home or in the office, every good coffee lover knows that a workday doesn’t start without a cup of coffee. And it has already become part of the work routine: pressing the coffee maker button and bringing a delicious and steaming drink to the desk. However, meetings and tasks can make us forget about it, and when we want to take a sip, it has gone cold.

Here are two options: get up and go heat the coffee in the microwave, or resign yourself and drink it as it is. But to avoid having to choose between one or the other, from EL PAÍS Escaparate we have spotted this electric cup warmer so that, regardless of the time that passes, you can keep your favorite drink at the perfect temperature.

So your drink is always just right
This small gadget works with a cable, so you can plug it in your work area to always have it at hand. It has a power of 20 watts, enough to keep coffee, or tea if you prefer, warm or hotter, depending on your preference. It offers two temperature adjustment levels: between 50ºC and 65ºC.
Besides its compact design, another relevant aspect is the materials it is made of, as they are quite resistant. While the frame is made of rigid plastic, the surface is made of waterproof conductive glass so that the warmer does not get damaged if liquid is spilled.
Equipped with a smart sensor
It is still an electrical device, so it is also important that it has safety measures. In this regard, it is equipped with a sensor that detects the cup when it is on the plate and, when removed, switches to sleep mode to avoid overheating. Moreover, this warmer is designed to turn off automatically five minutes after the cup is removed and after eight hours of continuous use. This is one of the reasons it has earned a good average rating in e-commerce, 4.4 stars out of 5. “Something I would highlight (that other similar products don’t have) is the automatic shut-off. I would buy it again without hesitation,” says a user who has purchased it.

Suitable for large cups
The plate of this warmer has a diameter of 10.4 centimeters, so cups of different sizes and even some glass coffee pots can be placed on it. Regarding the characteristics of these containers, it is preferable to use those with a flat and thin bottom so that this device can perform better. Also, if you are not a big fan of coffee and prefer other drinks, you can use it with infusions or milk.

This product, thanks to its dimensions and discreet design, barely takes up space and integrates well, so it can be placed next to the computer or in a corner of the desk, an area where the coffee cup can be easily reached. “Finally, my coffee stays warm from start to finish. No more trips to the microwave to reheat. It has been a great discovery and the perfect gift,” says another user.
