Question: How much clearance does the spout have below it?
Document: We are so used to having instant hot water for coffee, ramen noodles, and boiling pasta (much quicker on the gas stove than starting water from cold). The larger size allows for our Melitta drip coffee pot to sit right under the spout.
Needless to say, I've been drinking much more tea than I used to. I'm very glad I didn't go with the smaller 3 liter model as I'd be refilling much more often.As for features, the delay timer is great. I refill the water before I go to bed, set the timer, and have a full pot boiled and ready when I wake up. The dispenser spout is big enough to accomidate a teapot or travel mug, which is nice.
My only criticism is that you have to keep it plugged in to use the dispenser spout, so you can,t heat the water and move the kettle to the table or somewhere away from an electric socket. So, I ask, why does it have a carry handle? So far, it has been worth every penny I paid. I would really recommend this to my friends.
The kettle is just the right height so I can easily slide the pot and funnel under the pour spout. The two pour speeds are handy. I use the slow speed to get the grounds wet (if too fast at first, the grounds float on the hot water in the funnel) then switch to high speed to finish the job. Can brew a pot in about 4 or 5 minutes!
I'm a big green tea drinker. I was stuck with microwaving my water and trying to guess the temperature. This usually ended up with me getting either lukewarm tea or yellow, disgusting tea. I now do not have that problem with this neat little contraption!The inside is stainless steel with a Teflon-like coating. There will be a plastic smell the first time you use it and I'm guessing it's coming from the spout, but don't worry.
Bought this a little over half a year ago. Has been working great since and no complaints. My parents owned a Zojirushi water machine for YEARS. They replaced it because it looked &#34;dated&#34; and they wanted a new looking one, so I don't expect any problems with this one anytime remotely soon either (fingers crossed).Simple to use and reliable. One hint, hold your mug close to the exit spout when dispensing if you have the water on the highest temperature setting.
I have had a hot water dispenser for years that had a sink mounted spout. The water heater was under the sink & was very convenient. Since I was used to that kind I was skeptical about using a table top one. It is very easy to fill & keeps the water at the proper temperature all day long. I drink a lot of hot tea & make hot cereal everyday also. I love being able to set the timer & have the water hot when I get up in the morning.
Oolong? No worries, 195 degree setting there. How about good, old fashioned, drip coffee? 208 degree setting. And, speaking of drip coffee, this item has a great feature to slow the dispensing water for the drip coffee. I use a Chemex coffee maker, and it slides right underneath the spout; hot, fresh coffee, bingo. The entire device also swivels, has a (changeable) chime when the boiling is complete, and gives constant read outs of temperature and water level.
It is a bad produce, it will be rust after a few days use. I hate it very much. don't to buy it.
very nice product, as described in ads, still need much more time to absolutely sure it's quality, but, so far everything functions as it should be.
Answer: From my counter to the opening of the spout is 10 1/2 inches. Mine is not the Hybrid water heater.
