Morphing MugsHarry Potter - Don't Let the Muggles Get You Down - Quote - 11 oz Heat Sensitive Mug – Ceramic Color Changing Coffee Tea Mug

The media could not be loaded. I decided that this was a perfect gift idea for my best friend who is a huge Harry Potter fan but I was really afraid that I would order one and have it turn out to be nothing like the description. So I spent hours looking through all the different options for this kind of mug available on Amazon, tirelessly reading all the reviews to get an honest opinion. I settled on this one because it had the most reviews (a good sign it was the real deal), as well as a good overall rating. So as I was reading through the reviews, I was looking for those that addressed my concerns: 1. The color, 2. If it actually worked, and 3. The overall quality. When it delivered, I immediately checked for these things and so here are my thoughts:1. The color- The color is pretty much black/deep deep purple. I was really afraid that the map underneath it would be really visible, but to my surprise, it was hidden pretty damn well. If you look closely enough, you can see some of the map, but if you're not actively looking for it, it's really not that noticeable. It just looks like a plain black mug. When hot water is in the mug and the map is showing, there is a gap of white around/underneath the handle area. I thought it would be more annoying than it actually is, but considering your hand will cover it up while holding the mug, it honestly doesn't matter. It's not a super important area of the mug, visually speaking.2. Does it work- Yes and it is so damn cool! A few seconds after pouring hot water into it, the black color began to fade away to reveal a pretty detailed Marauder's Map. After pouring the water out, the cup took a couple of minutes to fade back to black as it cooled. It was super exciting to watch, it was like magic (teehee).3. The quality- This cup is a nice, comfortable size and the mug itself seems to be well made. None of the paint was chipped and the mug itself was in perfect condition. I expect it to last quite a while.Conclusion:I bought it with low expectations and I'm thrilled that it was so much better than I'd hoped it would be. I love it so much that I may even have to get one for myself! A brilliant gift idea that won't disappoint. Money well spent.

It’s a neat cup! Just don’t put it in the dishwasher..

This mug was a huge hit! It works exactly as expected and everyone loves it (even non HP fans were amused). Still a five star item, just be aware of the following:1) You can still see some of the underlying words when it's black. Not a lot but they arent 100% hidden.2) Even with very hot water (from a Keurig) the picture usually starts disappearing before you are done with your drink. Not really a downside just something we noticed.3) It is not very big. We are a filter that loves really big mugs and this one does not fit the bill at 11 ounces. We still use it for the novelty quite a bit but eventually it will probably fall to the wayside.

Magical map revealed with heat from tea. Nice graphics. Would have liked a visible logo on cold skin, which is very dark and unattractive . Apparently will work well with coffee.

I liked that our 8 year old great grandson loved getting this for his birthday!

I bought this mug for my best friend who is one of the biggest Harry Potter fans I have ever seen. I took the mug out of the packaging and just wrapped the black mug. Her birthday card said to enjoy her coffee in it and then call me. I have never heard her more giddy once she poured her hot coffee in and the map magically appears. She sent me a video the next morning so I could see it in action. It works SO WELL! Such a fun gift and great idea. 5+ stars!!!

We have a few of these color-transforming mugs. Some of them seem to apply some sort of laminate to the mug, and it shows. That was disappointing. But this mug is stunning, and beautifully made. The image is incredibly clear and vibrant when it transforms. You will not be disappointed by its feel nor by its appearance.Just a teeny, well-meaning note of warning; anyone who would really appreciate this mug will also find it deeply bittersweet. It may not be possible for everyone who loves this mug to also want it to be their daily mug – and that's ok. It's a great idea, beautifully and loving executed. Just be reasonably certain that the person you want to give this to can manage a little daily melancholy with grace.

My manager loves anything Harry Potter, so I decided to give this to her as a Christmas gift. When she opened it during our shift together, she was just so happy and excited to receive such a gift. She told me that she uses it all the time whenever she makes herself a cup of tea. She said, "Oh my! My tea always stays warm and I just love the way the cup looks!" I was so happy to hear her say that! Unfortunately, I didn't think to take a picture of this product. But I'm just glad that my manager loves her Maraurder's Map cup. So anyone who's a fan of Harry Potter would definitely LOVE this product! It's worth the price!

De lujo

Diese Tasse macht nicht was sie soll (Farbe von schwarz auf das Design wechseln) und ist in schlechter Qualität gedruckt. Der Händler geht nicht gut um mit meiner Reklamation. Finger weg!

Fast shipping! Packaged great and brand new as detailed. The lady loves it! Thank you again!

I bought this as a secret Santa gift for a work colleague, the absolutely loved it and haven't had a cup of coffee without using it.great gift.

La taza está increíble, fue un obsequio para mi hija que es fan de Potter y está encantada. La transición es hermosa. La verdad se me hizo un poco cara pero mi hija la ama y pues...
