Sunbeam SEK17 1500-Watt 1-4/5-Liter Electric Water Kettle Review

Sunbeam SEK17 1500-Watt 1-4/5-Liter Electric Water Kettle
Average Reviews:

Terrible odor makes the water undrinkable. They treated the inside with some chemical that even after frequent washing still does not come out. No, the odor is not from the water as I used the same faucet with the previous kettle I owned but replaced with this when the top broke off the other kettle. The problem is this Sunbeam. This company used to make decent products then went south and I have now been disappointed for the last time. I sent this back for full refund.

Rival 4071-WN 32-Ounce Hot Pot Express Review

Rival 4071-WN 32-Ounce Hot Pot Express
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I bought one of these close to ten years ago and it's still going strong, though I've taken it on three cross-country trips, countless weekend getaways and even to Guatemala.
Why? First, I don't like using hotel/motel coffee units -- who knows how clean their innards are? This holds more liquid, is easy to clean, and I know where it's been!
Second, it's useful for more than just heating water. I once took my daughter to a nice Disneyland hotel for four days, and did all our cooking in this little pot because food was so pricey. I heated soup, ramen, veggies, all kinds of things... and we actually ate well (though simply) the whole time.
Other reviewers have noted that it doesn't have auto shut-off. That's a good point, and it's a bit of a pain, particularly when you're as forgetful as I am. But the water always boils loudly enough that I hear it. Could be a problem in everyday use if you are wandering from room to room; fine for a motel.
The flip side is being able to adjust the heat level, which I don't think you could do if the unit shut off automatically. I've found that VERY handy for things that need a gentle heat, and use that feature a lot.
Power cord is frustratingly short, but necessarily so for safety reasons.
Naturally, anything that holds 32 oz. of water is a little bulky, but when I put it in my suitcase I just jam socks and breakables into it, so it ends up taking less room than you'd think. You can snap the top off, which is also a help when packing it. It's fairly lightweight.
The reason I'm back at this page is that my daughter just went to college and took the pot with her. I need a replacement for my travels without her! I was amazed to find the same pot is still being sold after all these years. That's probably a good sign about its quality in an era when things get redesigned every year.
At this price, if it lasted a year or two of steady use, I think I'd still be happy.

Panasonic NC-EH40PC 4.1-Quart Electric Thermo Pot Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I love my thermo pot. I use it everyday. I used to boil water in the microwave prior to having this pot. It used to take 2-3 mins for each cup of water. Great quality. It saves me so much time,especially in the morning when I need to rush out the door with a hot mug of tea.
To avoid build-up in the pot, I fill it with purified water instead of tap water. I've had it for several months and I haven't had to clean out any deposits yet.

Secura 4-Liter Electric Water Boiler and Warmer AirPot, Stainless Steel AX-400 Review

Secura 4-Liter Electric Water Boiler and Warmer AirPot, Stainless Steel AX-400
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Great water boiler and warmer, boils water fast and keeps it warm. I like coffee and my wife drinks tea, with this water kettle and we have hot water available all the time. What I like the most is the non coated stainless steel interior. The water out of this boiler tastes fresh, unlike my previous boiler with coated interior which had a trace of plastic smell in the water. Well, I know the plastic coating is to protect the boiler, but I spent my money to get a boiler, I really hoping it works for me. Stainless steel is the only material proven to be safe for contact with food.

Secura 5-Liter Electric Water Boiler and Warmer AirPot AX-650-2 Review

Secura 5-Liter Electric Water Boiler and Warmer AirPot AX-650-2
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This hotpot boils water really fast. We like the water capacity, 5 quart, do not need to refill frequently. At the beginning, we worried about the energy consumption to reheat the water, maybe we should go with 4 quart hotpot. The 1 quart more water capacity probably cost a few cents more electric per week, but we don't have to disconnect power, bring it to the sink, add water, take it back and plug in that often. It holds up heat pretty good, once it boiled, it seals the temperature and does not need to reheat very often.

Sanyo U-K170S 1-3/4-Quart Stainless-Steel Electric Kettle Review

Sanyo U-K170S 1-3/4-Quart Stainless-Steel Electric Kettle
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
We loved the look of this kettle and liked the easy-to-read water gauge. Its power is 1500 Watts, which is higher than many comparable kettles.This is a big advantage, as it means that it comes to the boil more quickly. (It's well worth checking the power of kettles before buying them. Some are painfully slow!)
For us, though, there was, unfortunately, one problem. We use our kettle for all sorts of purposes, but mainly for making traditional British tea and we found that after a day or so, the tea tasted odd. My adult son was the first to point it out. I didn't want to believe it, as I loved the kettle. But in the end I was unable to deny it any longer. The tea definitely didn't taste right, even to me.
I did some searching online and found other comments about a "metallic" taste and suggestions for eliminating it. e.g. Boil up lemon juice in the water, and so on. I did try that and it did diminish the scale that had already started to build up. But for us, it still didn't solve the taste problem. I don't know whether the scale was what caused it. If so, the kettle might work well for those who live in soft water areas, or who use water filters. It might also be fine for you if you aren't a tea drinker, or fussy about the taste of your tea.
I hate to write anything negative in a review, but feel I owe it to fellow tea-drinkers to point out this problem! We have kept the kettle, because it's still useful and fast at boiling water for other purposes. But we no longer use it for tea-making. Sorry.

With 1500 watts of power and a concealed heating element, this electric kettle quickly boils up to 7 cups of water, producing hot water for tea, hot chocolate, instant soup, and more--in half the time of a microwave oven. The kettle lifts off its 360-degree swivel power base for cordless pouring, can be set on the power base in any direction, and provides an easy on/off switch under the ergonomically designed handle. For safety, it features automatic shut-off with boil-dry protection to prevent it from operating without water, and to ensure the water doesn't boil away during operation, the unit shuts off automatically once the water reaches a full boil. Side and top water-gauge windows, along with a water-level indicator in ounces and liters, make it possible to see at a glance the amount of water remaining in the kettle. Other highlights include a push-button lid for convenient filling at the sink, a blue LED "on" interior light, cord storage underneath, and a removable and washable mesh filter that extends the life of the kettle and ensures better-tasting beverages. A bilingual instruction manual comes included. Housed in beautiful stainless steel, the electric kettle measures 9-1/5 by 6-4/5 by 10-1/5 inches.

Sunbeam 6131 Hot Shot Hot Water Dispenser Review

Sunbeam 6131 Hot Shot Hot Water Dispenser
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I've used a Hot Shot a whole lot for heating up water for drinking various types of tea and other beverages. If it's right for what you're brewing, it really is a great product--the water is heated within a minute or two, which is way faster than a kettle, and it holds the perfect amount for a large mug.
There are a couple things to note though. Like other reviewers have said, because of the product's design, some taller mugs (especially large vacuum-sealed caddy mugs) won't fit in to receive the water, so you either can't use them or have to dispense the water into another container first and pour it from there. Also, you definitely should empty the excess water after you're done--you might even want to open the lid while it's still warm to let the extra moisture evaporate. This is because the inside is metal, and re-re-reheated water that's been sitting in there gets a bit gross and might not be the healthiest.
The last issue, which affects me more than it may others, is that the Hot Shot heats the water to boiling or very near to boiling. This is great if you're drinking black tea, hot chocolate, or hot cider, but if you're drinking green tea (which takes hot water that is well below boiling), the water from the Hot Shot can be too hot and make the tea bitter. If it's right for the beverage you want to make, though, I can't recommend a more convenient or quick option.

European Travel Water Heater Review

European Travel Water Heater
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I am very pleased with the performance of this water heater. I have burnt up coils before, in just a few days, so I was reluctant to spend the money. I'm glad that I did. This heater worked fabulously on a 3 week trip to Peru at 220 voltage, and a week in Jamaica at 110, and is still going strong. It can bring water to boiling surprisingly fast. It takes up very little space in the suitcase too. I'm taking this baby with me everywhere I travel.
