Thank you so much.

I can imagine it would heat the water up much, much, much, faster than a coffee maker wouldn’t it?

I pour the amount of water I want into the reservoir on top, push the button, wait for it to boil and shut off, stick my cup under the outlet, and hold down another button until my cup is full of hot water for tea or coffee.  I like it a lot.  It gets the water hotter than the microwave, and it's quicker than putting a kettle on the stove.

>> Basically, it’s the same concept as a cure egg, except, you don’t put a cake up in it. It’s just for water. You push the button and it quickly heats up the water and dispenses a certain amount of water. Has anyone ever heard of this before? If so, what is the proper name and what prices have you seen it at?
