I can’t imagine my life without this thing, I can’t live without it. Makes everything perfect. If I want tea I can have a boiling hot water or just hot in a minute, if I’m running late and only have time for a k cup if I have people over and I need to brew the whole jar. It’s just perfect, quick, easy. Makes the most beautiful froth to make a capuccino. I specially love the delay function because I can wake up to a hot jar of fresh coffee before dropping my daughter at school
