Bought this thinking that it is better than the ordinary pour-type kettles since its description says it can make up to 8 cups of hot water. From this, one can only imagine that once the water is boiled, it can dispense more than 1 cup of hot water. Instead, you need to keep pressing the "start" button to boil another "cup" of hot water!!Pity, that this was not explained or even described fully in the features of this product. So annoyed with my purchase!
