Not the one with the variable dispenser (unfortunately) but a great price, the cheapest I've seen it recently. Sold by Amazon and free delivery.

Got one of those last year arround £35 , in my opinion it is not worth the money
In order to make a tea in a regular mug not a small cup , you need to boil water twice.
Once is not enough for a mug , tea comes short and twice is to much.
If you making it for two people then need to boil three times, whether a standard kettle would have done it quicker.
Still cheaper than when I have bought one
heat added.

Does it work with hard water? The water in my kitchen tap is full of calcium.

I have the one with the variable dispenser it provides very hot water but the "variable " isn't very.

Ideal for single person, but when the family comes over and they all want hot drinks it's not really ideal. Only takes about 30-40 secs to boil but also needs topping up frequently if having more than one cup etc. Ours scaled up pretty badly, even though we descaled it.

Had one of these a few years back, the boiled water had a plastic taste and smell to it, returned it after a week as it wouldn't go away.. put me off buying another. good price if your looking for one though

Had two and both ended up shorting the fuse box due to leaks

It is always scaled up , hard to descale it if used frequently as it builds up pretty quick.
