I tried two of these hoping that the first one was just defective but it was not. This product is dangerous because as soon as you plug it in, it immediately begins to heat up, even without any water inside. The power button does nothing, no standby, doesnt stop it from heating up, nothing. What's the point of the button then? It was also supposed to have a temperature safeguard where it should shut off if it started to warm up without water and that did not work. Again, it immediately heats up, empty, as soon as it is plugged in and the power button does not stop it! I returned the first one and ordered another and same issues. I concluded this was just how the product was developed unfortunately and bought another brand that actually has a power button that works (and does not immediate start when plugged in) so that I can actually plug it in, put water in, and choose a setting before it begins to heat up.
