" ... We use the hot water for teas and cooking. ... "
" ... so far like it, fast boil water and easy to use, only one thing, each time to get warm water out you have to put the electric on, other than that, like it, use it as daily base. ... "
" ... I have a couple rice cookers from this brand and I could not be happier so that was one reason for going for this one. ... Second thing that pushed me to this one was that it has a stainless steel ceramic coated container, just like the rice cooker ones. ... "
" ... This product better that other Small Tea Maker & Kettle. ... "
" ... It is handy for cooking, making tea, or any other reason you could think of. ... "

" ... The inner tank is definitely not stainless steel. ... "
" ... 5 months after purchase this product, I found that inner lid around screws area is getting rusty. ... "
" ... It appeared to have rust already at the bottom . ... "
" ... According to the product description, it says "The material of the inner container is stainless steel." ... If I understand correctly, stainless steel does not get rusting. ... "
" ... I bought water heater in November 2016, not even an year to use, and already the piece of inner lining fell off. ... "
" ... The plastic on top where the steam vents had become brittle over the years, and was crumbling into the tank. ... 2 seems to be a genuine design flaw or poor choice of material, but pretty harmless-- we could have just clipped out the remaining brittle plastic and carried on. ... "
