Another kitchen doohickey well never use…”. Ooppss! This is a case where the womanses new best.
I have to say I really come to love this thing. I use it on a pretty much daily basis. If I need hot water, screw the microwave this thing is quicker. I use it for oatmeal, hot chocolate & dissolving peanut butter for my after workout drinks.

My only dislike is that the space under it, where you slide your cup or bowl is pretty small. It’ll fit a typical coffee cup but not much else.

The water capacity is about a coffee cup full, maybe a little bit more.

The first time I used it I got a bit freaked out because of the way it shuts off. The shut off is basically a weird pop that reminds you of an electrical circuit that blew. When I first heard it I ran over checked everything out thinking something blew up or went wrong. I expected to see smoke or something. It is made in china after all. But that didn’t turn out to be the case. Thankfully.

I have to say I’m very happy with it and it has become a valued piece of equipment in our kitchen. My hope is that when it finally dies they are still making them so we can replace it.
