I'm a tea drinker and I travel frequently. I always travel with my own tea and disposable cups so I only need to seek out hot water. Most hotels (and even Starbucks at the airports) will fill your cup with hot water for free (and to my surprise, some places will actually want to charge for hot water). My challenge is wanting hot water first thing in the morning or late at night in my hotel room without wanting to get dressed and seek it out, and NOT have to rely on the in-room coffee maker (who knows how or when those things are ever cleaned and what fluids have been run through them). My first stop when I travel is to pick up a case of bottled water ($4.00 per case or $6.00 for a single bottle in the hotel room no brainer), and this kettle is sized for a 16 oz bottle of water. It is small enough to put in your carry on, and light enough not to eat up that extra valuable pound for your checked luggage. I've traveled three times so far, used it about 25 times and it is just perfect. It boils the water quick, is maintenance free, and is easy to clean. What more could you ask for? I've seen this exact looking kettle for much more around the web. On my next trip, I will add some packs of instant oatmeal for those early morning calls (and who wants to pay twenty something dollars for a $6.00 breakfast delivered to your room). I love this product and will take this everywhere with me.

I read the review of this product and thought, this is just what I want, even though the other review was so negative. Well, it showed up in delivery yesterday and it is just what I was looking for.. it's a sturdy little pot and heats the water very quickly, and there is no plastic touching the waterstainless steel body. It has a "max" line to show where the pint marker is, but there is room for another cup or so in there. I think if you boiled it with the lid off, you would be okay, but it might not turn itself off, as it does when the lid is on and you stick to the "max" line. The cord is sturdy, and it is perfect for how I am going to use it,, in my little trailer, when I want a hot beverage and don't want to light up the propane stove. It would also be good for people who want boiling water, not just hot water like you get with a microwave. In a pinch, one could boil an egg or heat up soup in this, as long as you do so without the lid, and are careful cleaning out the pot without submerging the base in water. I hope it is as sturdy as it looks. Looks quality, feels quality,, I love it!

Hi, I was looking for a small kettle to make tea in my home. The size is perfect. Would be better if the base was detachable, but I can live with that.

I have not decided if I'm going to keep it though. I did 3 "test" runs boiling water as per the instruction booket. I made sure to not fill above the "max" line. The water boils fine, but there is a strong plastic odor and taste I'm assuming from the steam condensing on the plastic cover.

No other reviewers have mentioned this issue. So either I have a defective product, or have greater sensitivity to plastic-tasting/smelling water.

I'll try some more test-runs with the cover off as other posters said the kettle works without the cover, but the auto shut-off is disabled. I can handle watching the kettle for 3 minutes. We'll see....

Update:

Did a few test runs without the cover and decided to keep the little unit. There are no other small electric Kettle options available (that are not plastic). Boiling the water with the lid removed gives the results I need hot water with no plastic taste or smell.

Honest reviews on Bonavita Bona Voyage 0.5-Liter Electric Travel Kettle

I use this kettle every day at work and it's a key part of my travel coffee making kit. The kettle has a suggested max of 500ml, but if you dont mind a wet desk and some hot fingers you could get 800ml. The spout is pretty decent and as far as I can tell the kettle only has 2 flaws. The first is the plastic lid. Plastic is a no-no in water kettles and although this isnt as bad as a full plastic model like the Bodum, it still gives the water an awful paint smell and taste. I used it a couple times and noticed that if I stay in the recommended 500ml water level, the splash is pretty minimal and boils 500ml in about 3.30 minutes without it. Without the lid a Aeropress fits right inside. The second bummer is the cord is fixed to the unit. Wish it was detachable or at the very least some kind of internal storage. Would help for packing, but more for pouring the cord can get in the way if not careful. Especially in a hotel room where there rarely is a outlet where you want it and carrying boiling water with a cord dangling around isn't fun.

I wanted a reasonably priced water heater that also provides nice functions. I was a little worried after reading the first review about the burn marks, but to my surprise it has gotten great reviews elsewhere, so I decided to give it a try.

Funny that when I received the package I was deliberately looking out for signs of previous usage or burn marks. But it was brand new. Shiny stainless steel tank. Now it has worked perfectly for me for about a month, no any marks whatsoever. I feel it is a good idea to provide this review, so people don't just walk away from this nice water heater and possibly go for something more expensive but inferior.

I did realize that there is a stainless steel exterior version of this heater and tend to be about 10-15 dollars more expensive than this one. But if you check the manufacturer's website, both versions are priced almost the same. So you are spending extra for the look.

Other pros than the product description you can read above:

--very well built

--nice size tank

--great easy to read instructions

--energy saver features (save energy during night)

--to me, it boils water fast, so fast I never realized the wait, but maybe it is due to that I don't always fill it to full

--comparatively quiet

Cons:

--it can be a little shaky, because the base enables rotation towards any direction, which is supposed to be a nice feature if you have a kitchen island, but if you don't need to turn it from time to time, not so useful. But as long as you put it on really stable surface like kitchen counters, you are fine.

Thanks for reading.

This product came looking totaly diff from the picture here in Amazon (I did post some actual picture of the product) but manage to be a wonderfull suprice for me. I totaly love the stainless steal version of this product it gives it a more modern look to it now for the pro & cons.

PROS:

Products seems to be well build and feels solid wont be supprice if this one last as long or longer than my old one which is around 3 years.

Come with great instruction one that actually make sence. And I know you know what I'm talking about.

Energy saver features of this product is great I can time it to switch off at night and by the next morning you got hot water waiting for you knowing the unit is not eating up electricity all through the night.

Safety features of this product is great for family who have kids around. (the unit wont dispence hot water unless electronically unlock first.

3 way to dispence hot water, including a manual one which is great if the unit is in sleep mode. GREAT THINKING GUYS!

CONS:

It takes a little long for it to boil water if all the water inside is tap cool but reboil is quick

Safety unlock feature button is starting to show sign of use not bad but noticable.

Be carefull where to put it cause the top do vent a lot of steam when boiling water so please make a note of that before initial operation of the product.

All in all great product worthy of 5 star in my book and highly recomended

Best Deals for Aroma Hot Water Central 4-Quart Air Pot/Water Heater

I loved everything about this appliance, except it doesn't have auto shutoff on low water level. If you don't check the water level (which is a screwy arrangement of diagonal lines) and try to dispense when the level is too low, it will sputter out. Then, if you don't turn it off right away (even the time it takes to go grab more water), it will overheat and damage the thermostat. I also got that information from Aroma's customer service line (known problem). Other heaters on this site have this feature. And it will be inevitable that it will happen sooner or later to you with this appliance.

Honest reviews on Aroma Hot Water Central 4-Quart Air Pot/Water Heater

Before buying this product I used a Zojiarushi brand in a condo I was renting. When I bought my own place I wanted my own -it was so convenient -but was a little put-off by the price of Zojiarushi. Aroma cost less, but it is easily as nice! I can't find anything inferior about it at all! I especially love how easy it is to dispense and that it locks after a couple of minutes.

Thank you Aroma!

When it arrived it was defective and did not work. The seller refunded my money and told me to dispose of the water heater, so I decided to open it up and see if I could find out what was wrong.

The manufacturer in China made the wiring harness for the circuit board too short, so almost half of the connectors had pulled away from the circuit board. I moved some wires around I was able to reconnect them to the circuit board without them pulling out again. I Plugged it in and it worked perfectly!

So, while I love the features such as the choice of manual pump, push button pump, cup switch and 3 temperature settings, the quality control seems to be lacking, and it is not very well insulated. The outside is quite warm when in use.

One more thing, the water will not dispense when it is heating up. The boiling cycle needs to complete before the water pump will work, but you can still use the manual pump if you don't want to wait.

I would like to warn anyone who wants to buy Dimplex Wall Heaters period, "don't". I bought 3. Two for my home and one for a friend's home. All three work and preform the exact same way, Terrible. You half to turn the thermostat all the way up to get it to come on when its cold. They then continually go off and on, off and on. On for about eight minutes each time. They don't stay on heating but about maybe five minutes, which does not heat the room at all. Like I said all 3 work just alike. Now one of them will not go off period unless I turn the knob all the way off. Because they keep going off and on continually for a short period of time the heater does not put enough heat out to warm the room. The heaters should since the room temperature before they go off so that when it gets warm, then cut off. But not so. Please do not buy Dimplex heaters thinking they will warm your house. Made only, I repeat only for indoor spaces, whether placed in a vestibule, entrance way, stairwell, kiosk, or other area subject to cold drafts and at that I can't see how they would work.

I am having to buy another brand called Q-Mark which is made to heat a 480 square foot room. I since then I have done a lot of research on wall heaters and found Q-Mark to be one of the top brands. Just cut my loses and move on. Like they say live and learn sometimes the hard and expensive way.

The heater was received in new condition. Installation was extremely simple. Works great. Nice feature to have the built-in thermostat. The only issue I have is the dial on the heater unit doesn't indicate temperature, so you have to guess where to set the dial for the proper temperature. Other than that, a great unit.

NEW Energy Efficient Ceramic Electric Space Heater Star Reviews

I've owned Pelonis heaters in the past, and this is not a Pelonis heater. It's a cheap copy made in China. You can tell as soon as you lift it that it's a piece of junk.

We bought it for a vacation home. As soon as I put it on the floor and turned it on, it quickly overheated and short-circuited. The outside became so hot that you couldn't touch it without burning yourself.

The printing on the outside of the box says it's UL-Approved. I don't believe it. I have worked in a factory producing UL-Approved products, and there is no way this heater would have survived their tests.

This is by far a great heater, really heats a room quickly. It is so small and compact, it can be stored anywhere. I gave away a brand new bulky space heater that I had previously purchased once I used this Pelonis heater . Not to mention its safety feature, if it tips it turns off. Truley a worthwhile investment.

Review of Portable Woodburning-Style Large Electric Stove with Stay-Cool

Customer Ratings:

We just started using this stove in our living room and really like it. It puts out a nice amount of heat. My 3 year old son calls it our "fireplace" and likes to have it on while he's playing. The flames are pretty cozy and even though they aren't super realistic, they create the ambiance of a fire. The fan makes an audible sound, but I don't find it to be unpleasant. The stove itself is quite attractive, but the color in the ad is totally misleading. It's definitely more of a dark brick red (almost plum) color. It's going to look really nice with holiday decorations on top of it. My mother-in-law came to visit and liked it so much that we just ordered her one as well.

I like the item itself but the dealings I had with the company is enough for me to rethink ordering again. Placed my order several weeks ago, received first stove about a week later and it was dented. I called, they sent a return shipping label and a replacement. The second stove came another week later and the metal strip that hold the glass in was broken off with broken chunks of plastic still screwed on it and was rattling around the box. I called again. They sent another return shipping label and another replacement. The third stove came and the door was broken. All 3 boxes, when they came were gashed and torn all over and there was no protection around the stoves to prevent any damage. I called and got angry and they sent one more return shipping label and the 4th replacement. The 4th stove came on Dec. 19th(this was for a Christmas gift). This one was in a box, in a bigger box. It was finally packed the way they should have been to start with. The customer service was very questionable and they did nothing to make up for the unbelievable hassle of having to repack and return 3 large heavy boxes.

I have a red one and the paint looks like enamel over cast iron. The logs look realistic, just like glowing embers, and the flame effect is fairly realistic. The room just seems cozier, and I find it relaxing. I have lived with a real wood stove...carrying wood in all winter, cleaning up the mess....this is a nice alternative! My cat is not impressed, but then he never carried firewood or offered to sweep up ashes.

I don't really like to use the heater, (I have seen how portable electric heaters can run up an electric bill) so I can't honestly rate it.

I think it may have been a little pricy because of the Plow & Hearth name. I paid around $220 including S&H...probably really only worth around $150. I looked for a couple of months before buying this stove, and there are nicer stoves out there, but you are going to pay a lot more money.

I think this is a good quality stove for the price range. You will have to attach the legs, and the doors feel a little flimsy (this is why 4 stars, and not 5). You should know that it is mostly heavy plastic, only the sides and back are sheet metal, but if you are just sitting back and LOOKING at it, it looks good.

Review of Swan SNCHW34050 Premium Hot Water Heavy Duty 3/4-Inch by 50-Feet

Customer Ratings:

I was looking for a hose mainly to hook up to a auxiliary sump pump. I saw this on the Amazon warehouse for about $20 and figured it was a better option than the cheap 5/8 inch hose I was considering. Plus, I could use this for draining my hot water heater.

There's a couple of good features to this hose. The ends are very solid brass couplers. Well-made with zero leaks. They are hefty enough that I don't anticipate any problems with them for the life of the hose. Plus, the 3/4 inch size has a noticeably greater flow than a 5/8 inch hose (especially when using it with a pump), and it comes with a life-time warranty (according to the packaging, if it breaks you need to send back the ends and they will send you a new hose).

But the hose itself is problematic with regard to kinks. It's more manageable when used with hot water, but cold water (or any outside temperature below 80 degrees) makes it very cumbersome to wind/unwind. It kinks VERY easily and the kinks are difficult to work out. The hose came with two kinks that have set themselves permanently into the hose restricting the flow, and the outer casing at the kink points is cracked. No leaks, but just a matter of time before the cracks extend further.

Even though it was so inexpensive I returned it and replaced it with a 3/4 inch Flexogen by Gilmore (got two 25 foot hoses on the Amazon Warehouse for about the same price I paid for this -$20). As usual, Amazon was a breeze to deal with regarding the return.

I'll give it two stars due to the connections and the fact that, in specialized applications, it's workable. But unless you're willing to put up with some major drawbacks, it's not worth getting even at $20, and absolutly not worth the full price.

Also, although the product info says it will handle water up to 200 degrees, the label on the hose I received says the limit is 190 degrees.

We use these hoses daily for cleanup in a food processing facility. I've found them to be very durable. They last much longer than the standard hoses found at hardware stores.

Got this item yesterday and plugged it in. Was very impressed at first. The temperature indicator was showing rapid temperature decrease finally down to 45 degrees. This was inside a 78 degree home. Ok, I then put a thermometer inside the unit and closed it up for an hour. The external display showed 41 but the thermometer I placed inside was showing 52. This is all done inside a 78 degree home. I'm more inclined to believe my thermometer then the display. I placed 3 chilled 16oz water bottles inside and left them overnight. Took them out in the morning and they where cool, but not cold. The 32 degree claim on the box is pure puffery in my opinion. The 40-45 degree drop from ambient temperature is also was not confirmed in my test. I'm returning this unit. It isn't going to 'cool' anything to near the advertised claims.

I know I was not the only one to be misled by the product discription, and when I contacted the seller about the 'missing wall plug' all I got was the runaround. Be aware this item only comes with the auto-plug feature, the optional wall plug is only if you buy it seperately, that is, if you can find it.

The fridge comes with a temperature display that has never worked, the cup holder is a cheap, roughly hewn soda-can holder that flips open akwardly from the top of the front panel.

I have also found the fridge to be miserably under-powered. ALL it will do is lower the ambient temperature of the room slightly, and if you place items in the fridge that aren't pre-chilled, you're wasting your time if the mini-fridge isn't kept in a briskly-chilled room or car.

If ever I was to regret a purchase, this is definitely it.

To note, I have not tried using the warming feature.

I do not know where to begin.

I bought this to replace a similar older Wagan I got from Costco 5 yrs ago. That one used to hold 6 small water bottles standing up (8.25" height each). This one is a piece of junk. The same water bottles do not fit anymore. It slopes down towards the front, so it is much shorter.

I have no idea who could have designed this, they probably never seen a plastic water bottle before.

I guess the product photo showing the cooler open with the content exposed is the way it was designed for.

The whole thing is plastic. The top has a useless cushion.

The latch is so cheaply made, it pop up and leaves the fridge open.

I have to keep scotch tape on it.

The front face does not seem to be mounted securely.

Does not come with AC adapter, so I bought a Black & Decker adapter for $17 at Walmart, and it looks like it can easily outlast the cooler.

It is very under powered, the manual says reaches 34 deg, yes if you place the cooler in you fridge.

Stay away from this, it is a disappointment.

Honest reviews on Wagan 2260 Thermo-Electric Fridge/Warmer - 6L Capacity

Product works OK if you plug in the empty cooler the night before you want to use it. Then put in the COLD beverages, cold fruit, etc immediately before you are ready to go. In that case, the cooler will keep your food cold. To do this, buy the 110/12V adapter, so you can plug the cooler in at home the night before. Then when you get to the hotel or whatever the next night, plug the cooler into the wall and let it run all night. If you do these things, the cooler will meet your expectations. If you are not prepared to do this, better use the old fashion ice cooler.

This fridge is pretty small. Good for a couple bottles of water and maybe a snack. I spend a lot of time driving for my job which is why I purchased it. You have to be driving for a while before it gets adequately cold. If you're going to be driving only intermittently throughout the day, the fridge won't stay cold very long while the car is off. The inside of the fridge is not really insulated to maintain the coldness.

I bought one of these heaters more than 10 years ago from I don't remember where.

It cost less than $20 back then. It is still going strong, never have had a problem with it.

They might make them with less quality now; I don't know. I've used it mostly in my small

bathroom to keep the steam off the mirror while taking hot showers during the winter and it

worked adequately for that. For the past few years I've had it in my 19' travel

trailer with a slide-out while in campgrounds with power hook-ups so I don't

have to use propane for the gas furnace. I leave it on all night on the 750w setting

and it keeps the trailer interior above 70F when it's in the 40's outside. If this

heater ever stopped working I would probably buy another one.

Looks nice, good flame effects, very quiet. It does take a long time to heat up a area if you let it get cold, but will maintain the temperature after you get it the temperature up. We built it into a cabinet in our 5th wheel and it was a nice upgrade. Beats the heck out of a noisy space heater!
