Product Information

A word of caution however: none of these is literally instant. You only have to wait seconds for them, but you will have to wait. But only a short while… How to buy the best instant kettle Let’s take a look at BREVILLE Hot Cup VKT124 8-cup Hot Water Dispenser in more detail and see what makes it worthwhile of a review score of 9.8 out of 10. At this point, you should have a good idea what kind of instant hot water dispenser solution will work best for you. Always switch off and unplug your HotCup water dispenser and allow it to completely cool before cleaning. Never immerse the base unit, power cord or plug in water or any other liquid. Do not use harsh abrasives, chemicals or oven cleaners. Okay, okay, we hear you thinking “ another hot water dispenser from Breville?” Suffice it to say, you’ll find this is one company who have taken great pains to corner several niches on the hot water dispenser market. Think of this as a sort-of medium tier between our first two product listings. It’s got 1.7L capacity, 3,000W of true-boiling power, plus delivery of the good stuff in under a minute. Sounds standard fare at this point, right?

As we covered earlier choosing a brand can be really key to getting the right product in the Kettles category. There are loads of great brands out there each offering great products at different levels of quality and price. If brand is important to you, we’re sure you already know that Breville is a great choice. With 43 products available from Breville there’s plenty of choice too. As with urns in general, the water tank is integrated into the body, which means that you would have to move the whole unit to a sink to fill it. While this is theoretically possible, the smaller of the two sizes holds 3.5 litres of water and the larger holds 5 litres and that would be a lot of weight to carry so filling the tank with a jug or bottle would probably be a better idea. Then we thought that we should be looking at Breville Kettles rather than just looking at Kettles or just looking at Breville products. By combining the two pieces of data it helps to ensure that the prices and analysis we’re carrying out is as accurate as possible and gives you the closest match to the average price of similar products to BREVILLE Hot Cup VKT124 8-cup Hot Water Dispenser as possible.The large water window also makes accurate filling easy, so you never run out of water halfway through making the teas and coffees. What’s more, with a patented variable height drip tray, Breville’s HotCup Water Dispenser lets you fill everything from your brother’s comedy two-pint mug to your mum’s tiny teacup without ever spilling a drop. From the stylish and sleek appearance to the permanent, fuss-free limescale filter, this is a water dispenser where every element of design has been crafted with user experience in mind. The stainless steel finish promises durability, the carrying handle is useful when it’s time to fill up the tank and we like the overall ease of use on offer. A one-touch button dispenses up to 600ml of water in one serving, while the LCD display is handy for seeing what setting is currently selected. The specification we have listed from Currys PC World for BREVILLE Hot Cup VKT124 8-cup Hot Water Dispenser is: It’s also worth noting that although our instant hot water dispenser review was created for people looking for instant hot water dispensers for their home, we think that the options we list would also be appropriate for small businesses and could have health-and-safety benefits as compared to standard kettles.

The VonShef Hot Water Dispenser Instant Kettle is currently offered in two colours, which could be handy if you’re struggling to find a larger instant hot water dispenser, which also fits with your kitchen style. It has a capacious 2.5L water tank, which can be removed for cleaning or filling, although we would suggest that you’d probably find it easier to fill it with a jug or bottle. The opening is wide enough for this to be done easily.

Performance is sprightly, with water up to 99-degrees available in 5 seconds. The nozzle is nice and accurate too while a small drip tray in the dispensing area takes care of any spillages. Oyu has since added a higher drip tray accessory too, making slashes a thing of the past. Not to be confused with the Breville HotCup Hot Water Dispenser above, this Breville HotCup Hot Water Dispenser is also a big hit with consumers. If you’re looking for an affordable but hugely practical hot water dispenser then this appliance is up there with the best of them even if the model above looks rather better. It can supply you with five 250ml cups of hot water without refilling, which is more than adequate for average needs. Notwithstanding this, and perhaps rather surprisingly given its headline selling point, the Breville VKT124 only dispenses water in 250 ml servings, which means that if you want to fill up a large mug you will need more than one serving. If you have an “in between” mug, then there is also a manual stop button. On the plus side, however, you’re not going to be waiting long for your hot water as the Breville VKT124 has a 3 kW flat element for fast boil times and easy cleaning.

I’ve lived with the Breville HotCup for a while now and it’s undoubtedly a handy edition for any kitchen or home office workspace. Admittedly, the servings are a little on the miserly side. For me, that’s one of the weaknesses of this particular model because I tend to use my YumAsia instant hot water kettle for washing up purposes. Want something that stays hot all day without costing you dearly in energy or counter space? Then the aptly named brand Perma Therm intant hot water dispenser demands a second look. Yes, it makes a rather utilitarian first impression, with basic LCD, chunky buttons, and wide plastic handle which makes no attempt to hide within the design. But you’ll find that hidden underneath is a thing of beauty: a 3.5L tank which has been aggressively insulated. If the previous hot water dispenser was Goliath, here we come upon David in the form of the VYTRONIX CUP01 one cup kettle. Nevertheless, when you need to move it, there’s a sturdy handle built right in. If the obviously solid construction doesn’t give you confidence in the VonShef as a true workhorse, consider the 2-year manufacturer warranty.

You work at BID, what a legend.

We think that the shaping of the Breville VKJ142 gives it a bit of a “space age” look, which we rather like. It does have to be said that its functionality is very definitely not space age, the Breville VKJ142 is Breville’s first-generation instant hot water dispenser and it shows, but on the other hand, the reason it’s still for sale is because there are a lot of people who want an instant hot-water dispenser which “just does the job” and comes at an affordable price. What the Breville VKJ142 does it does very well, hence its place on our list. An instant hot water dispenser consists of a main water tank and a smaller reservoir. When you want hot water, the instant hot water dispenser transfers the appropriate amount of water from the main tank into the reservoir and heats it there, before dispensing it into your cup or mug (or other container) without the need for you to pour. Instant hot water dispensers are not, therefore, quite instant, but they are very fast indeed, often much faster than a standard kettle. A drip tray gives you the option to change the height – from grandmas old china cup to your larger novelty cup – the HotCup can take on most cup varieties. The sleek and stylish design will allow the HotCup Water Dispenser to fit perfectly in any kitchen in any home. If you have your heart set on a particular brand or even a selection of brands then we’d suggest you spend a bit of time writing up a list of the brands that you would happily buy. This can really help you in narrowing down the selection when it comes to choosing a product. For example, over at Currys PC World you can filter products by brand, so you could filter just to show the brands on your list. This is especially useful knowing that there are 128 Kettles to choose from at Currys PC World. On paper, yes. However, there are a few extras the standard HotCup doesn’t have. First, just look at the thing. In the midst of most modern homes and offices, the Breville VKT124 HotCup strikes a pose whilst blending in with its understated design.
