Zojirushi CD-WBC30 Micom Electric 3-Liter Water Boiler and Warmer, Champagne Gold Review

Zojirushi CD-WBC30 Micom Electric 3-Liter Water Boiler and Warmer, Champagne Gold

My old Zojirushi water boiler conked out after 8 years of regular use, so I ordered the CD-WBC30. Features have gotten better in 8 years: the LCD display shows the temperature, and I have 4 thermostat settings instead of two. I used to have to choose between 208 degrees (too hot) and 140 degrees (too cold). I can now also select 195 degrees and 175 degrees. The 175 degree setting is just fine for instant coffee and oatmeal. I've used this boiler for two months without problems.

Perfect for serving hot beverages to a crowd, this electric water boiler and warmer provides up to 101 ounces of hot water for instant coffee, tea, hot chocolate, and more. The unit features a micro-computerized temperature-control system and four keep-warm temperature settings that include 140, 175, 195, and 208 degrees F. Simple one-touch controls supply a reboil button, which reboils water to 212 degrees F; a dispense button; an unlock button that must be pressed before pressing the dispense button; and temperature- and timer-setting buttons. The unit's energy-saving timer function--from 6 to 10 hours--automatically turns on the boiler at a later time to save electricity, and its LCD display shows the actual water temperature at all times, as well as the temperature and timer settings. The dispenser also comes with a cafe-drip dispensing mode, which decreases the amount of water dispensed to 60 percent of the normal setting, making it suitable for brewing cafe drip coffee. Even more, its steam-save function automatically lowers the power just before boiling to reduce the amount of steam emitted from the steam vent. Other thoughtful details include automatic safety shut-off, a wide window water-level gauge that shows how much water remains in the unit, and an interchangeable melody or beep indicator to alert the completion of the boiling process or a low water level. A removable 3-foot power cord, swivel base, carry handle, and easy-to-clean nonstick interior provide added convenience. The 700-watt water boiler and warmer measures 11-3/16 by 8-3/16 by 11-1/2 inches.

Copco Strata Satin Finish Stainless Steel Whistling Teakettle Review

Copco Strata Satin Finish Stainless Steel Whistling Teakettle

The only redeeming feature of this kettle is how fast it will boil water.
It's a bad sign when the owner's manual includes instructions on how to get rid of the rust spots that will develop on the inside of the teakettle if you don't dry it between each and every use. I drink a lot of tea and coffee, so that's really just not practical.
It's impossible to get water into this thing because the handle is rigid and does not move from side to side like most good teakettles.
The whistle is so noisy and piercing that it feels like my ears are going to bleed every time it goes off.
Oh, and did I mention the rust spot? I only got my money's worth because I got 4 free coffee mugs with this kettle when I bought it. There's nothing worse than having to throw out what seems from the outside to be a perfectly good thing.
Spend more on something that will last a lifetime.

Early evening? Put your feet up on the ottoman, it has been a long day. What better time to brew the perfect cup of tea, or perhaps warmed milk, hot chocolate, mulled cider? Your teapot, a versatile tool, does more than boil water.

Panasonic NC-EH30PC 3-Quart Electric Thermo Pot Review

Nice and simple pot. Has six hour timer, however, would like to have a longer delay for the day use. Also, when using the timer, it always resets the final temperature to 190 degree. Would be nice if it can "remember" the previous temperature setting. The inner container is coated with floury charcoal, not teflon coating that any other brands offer. It claims to bring out the fine taste of water. To me, at least it looks better than the grey teflon coating. Another feature missing is it does not come with the audible alarm.
Extra spec that I would like to know before ordering:
Power: 700 Watt
Temp setting: 140, 180, 190, 208
No audible alarm for any events.
After all, I am happy with the pot for the price and the build quality. Not sure if I would pay extra $30+ for the fancy features Zojirushi brand offers.
