No options for different temperatures

I like this as it is a smooth surface so no edges to trip up your cup. It turns off as soon as you remove your cup. This also means it turns on when something is placed on it.

I changed my mind about the temperature from an earlier review. After using it for a week, I find it keeps my coffee suitably hot; not as hot as I'm accustomed to, but agreeable. The cord is too short to reach any typical outlet near a side table but could adequately reach a power strip on a desk. Love that it shuts off if the cup is not on it!! Makes it worth it.
