We recently redid our kitchen after living with it for 8+ years. The kitchen was in the same state it had been when the house was constructed in 1989 so there was no insta-hot or purifying water system in place. I use it far more than I ever could have imagined. It compliments the clean modern style of the sink faucet and has encouraged us to drink more tea. Great product. The only thing I am uncertain about is ease of installation because the contractor did it, not us.
