Very practical water heater, heating very quickly, the material is also very good

High quality, easy to use, always have hot water whenever you need it. My first Zojirushi water boiler worked for 10+ years and started to show some wear and tear. This is my second one, which I expect to work for another 10 years!

We've had another Zojirushi water boiler before but the plastic cap under the lid had a screw that fell off due to the plastic melting. We've had that model for a very long time. Instead of replacing the lid which you could do easily, we decided to upgrade to a newer model.It is a solid water boiler, especially if you have elders with/without dementia. It's accident proof and very easy to use. The big orange button helps them remember how to dispense. The built quality is chef's kiss and I can tell because as soon as you let go of the button it will not drip. I can't say the same after a few years of use but it will not be unusable.

We went to Japan in 2004 for the first time and of the many discoveries we made on that trip, we remember the Zojirushi hot water heater in just about every hotel room. It was the small version but there it was, with ready to dispense hot-water. GENIUS! Japanese engineered to perfection, this device became our essential home kitchen appliance 11 years ago. In fact, we have got our family into the whole thing too. It makes a great gift!We have since gone through three Zojirushi units since then, counting this one. The first one was a smaller unit which just got old after 5 years of every day -multiple times a day - use, but did not break. So we gave it away and upgrade to a 4-liter version, which unfortunately, after 6 faithful years of service, started a leak at the very bottom. That's when we bought this unit. Something like that would have turned me off any other brand but I love the Zojirushi and I'm glad we bought the new unit.The advantages and great ways of using this unit are as follows:- With the amount of water we use for tea, coffee, food, cooking, we had to refill the 4-liter unit a couple of times a day. This unit gets us through most of the day if it's full at the start.- The black and silver color is extremely stylish.- The temperature settings of 212, 195 and 175 are wonderful especially if you are into green teas which require a less than boiling temperature. You can also adjust those settings mid-way. Start at 212 then go to 195 then back up. It takes it just a few minutes to readjust.- Slow vs. fast drip options are great, and can come in handy especially if you are making fancy coffee or slowly pouring water over fine tea leaves.- We use filtered water from our Brita filter for the water. I find it tastes much better than unfiltered water but this varies depending on the water source in your areas and the minerals in the water.- When we contact Zojirushi about the 4-liter version that started leaking, they said: "If you have hard water in NC like we do in CA, please make sure to using the CLEANING MODE to clean the unit with citric acid cleaner or lemon juice concentrate every one to three months due to calcium build up." Well, to be honest, we were slack in cleaning our Zojirushi. Now we are going to put it on the calendar to clean it regularly. Sharing this bit of information just as an FYI for you.In summary, I LOVE Zojirushi as a brand. We also have the rice cooker and some other products by the brand and we are truly lifetime customers. Enjoy yours!

Had our last one for many years. This updated model seems to heat up and retain heat more efficiently.
