Buyers beware. This dispenses a full glass of water. Nothing less nor more. You cannot have 1/2 or 3/4 or stop it midway. Unless you choose to chuck out some water each time you fill it for a cuppa, it's meaningless.

just seen this priced £24 at asda,but £26.66 still a good price

you can stop it once you have the water you need,you just press the off button on the top

not true Terry, it keeps pouring one whole cup regardless. Now this is fine until you realise half the mugs you own are too small and you then have to tip out some of the hot water. I have this exact model and whilst it's faster than a kettle, I'd only recommend it if you live alone and have only average size cups/mugs.

if you want bigger you just get this one instead

the same size but it is for small cups to big cups you pick what you want ans a big stop button lol

These are great! had one for a couple of years and hardly use the kettle at all now. Yes, they only dispense 300ml of water - it's a fixed size. However, the benefits outweigh this single disadvantage. Would buy another immediately if mine packed up!

Had this for two years, it's great.

Not designed for multiple users, a standard kettle would be better for that.
Adjusted my cup, to a smaller one, and it's perfect. Also meant I cut down on the two sugars I used to have in my bucket cup.

Nothing understood why you'd want one of these when you can buy a coffee machine for a little bit more with a hot water function.

Had 2. Both leaked at base of handle. Loads of other customers have the same fault too.
Water leaking onto the contacts in the charge base is not worth the risk.

Just boil a kettle....

Anyone know if variable temperature ones of these exist? Currently I use a temperature adjustable kettle I got from Aldi.
