Never had the problem of heat on the slate. Really like to use a fire log (pressed wood). Do not remember where it was made.

I did not know where it came from......It was very heavy and it is very nice.....Yes agree drinks would be come very hot......you do need to put it together but it was not hard at all to do.....

The slate doesn't get terribly hot, but a drink sitting that close to the fire would probably melt/get warm quickly.

i havent used mine for hot drinks , and would probably avoid anything HOT HOT . one of my coworkers also has one , and said it got screwed up when he put it in the dishwasher instead of hand washing it , so i would think anything HOT HOT would ruin it . . but if its just really warm , it should keep it warm for quite a while .

I would not since it has a "straw". If you are just looking for something to keep it hot, it would do that.

It doesn't get very hot - would be fine on the coffee table. I was very pleased that it doesn't have to cool down or anything as it doesn't get that hot. It also has a button that's similar to a screensaver that lets you shut off the screen but as soon as you push the button again, it's right back on with no wait time.

I would differ with the suggestion it doesn't insulate well. We recently took them on a hot beach vacation and they kept our drinks cold for hours.

It doesn't get really hot, but it is hot. I use the attachment that makes it a fluffy froth and it makes a fabulous latte type coffee. I love the frother so much, I take it on vacation with me. It can also make a cold froth for iced coffee.

Its made of glass and constant heat would make it hot and burn you. You can put it on top as top surface cools. Between the feet its 8" wide x 17" long x 1-3/4" high. It's great for putting hot foods that are ready off the stove to be dished out.

I have not used this bottle for hot beverages. It is a bottle within a bottle so I think that a hot beverage would not burn your hands since you are holding the outside plastic "layer". I don't know how hot it will keep your beverage. The straw is think rubber so I don't think it would melt it. Good question.

Ours gets warm but not so hot I worry about it. I've used ours to make large quantities of drinks etc over time and found the base does heat up but never beyond the point where I can handle it.

It does get hot and could melt a plastic cup. I use an esspresso metal cup from GSI that is nicely insulated and works great.

I wouldn't use it for hot beverages myself, though it would certainly keep them hot. The problem is, it uses a straw, not a "sippy-cup" style spout, so it would be very easy to burn your mouth badly. Also, though the mouthpiece is silicone (and thus would be fine with even the hottest drinks), the straw is (BPA free) plastic, and I'm not sure how well it would hold up to heat.

In my opinion, this is designed to keep already hot beverages warm. I don't think you will get positive results attempting to actually warm from this. It does get hot but not hot enough to warm water.Hope this is helpful.

No it is not heated and doesn't stay hot. I start with hot water and just use it until it cools down.

not at all. It is hot when it brewes then need a thermo mug to keep it warm.There is no keep warm device.

It doesn't seem to get too hot but we use espresso and milk. It has the handle which definitely is not hot with very hot coffee in it.

It's blue.....it's heavy.....and it only holds enough liquid to serve two people. If you "hotten the pot" as the instructions advise, your tea will stay hot for about an hour. Don't drop it on your foot or your new granite countertops!

I have never put warm beverages in mine personally but I am sure you could! Its pretty durable. I think warmer rather than scolding hot! The cup probably wouldn't keep the beverage warm for very long but would be able to take the heat for a short period.
