Convenience and energy efficiency

I've had a Zojirushi water heater for 3 years now and I love it. While it seemed expensive when I bought it, I find it is well worth the price. Near boiling water is always ready to make tea, and I've saved countless minutes of what used to be a process of filling the kettle, turning on the heat, waiting, coming back, and then making tea. Instant oatmeal, soup and other products of course are similarly made faster, but also many "real cooking" tasks. Adding boiling water to a pot of fresh green beans for instance gets you cooking faster, and on a number of occasions I've emptied the entire water heater into a pot to make pasta without waiting.
I've also found other uses. If I only have one or two dishes to wash, I don't want to waste tap water waiting for it to warm up, so I dispense a little hot water into the dish I want to wash, then rinse with cold water, saving both water and energy.

Excellent product

I didn't even really need one of these damn things but bought it anyway and love it. It's solidly built, well engineered, and in general, just the sort of well-thought-out product that the Japanese are famous for. It ain't cheap, but IMHO, if it lasts five years, I would consider it a very reasonable price/value tradeoff.

The only minor complaint is that the time to boil the full load (3 liters) from room temperature is a little excessive -- 27 minutes. I think they should have Tim Allened it ("More Power") to speed up the "boil" mode.

Have fun with it. Keep the cat away from the steam vent. :)

Perfect for tea lovers

I used the hot pot while visiting my relatives in Japan, knowing how well theY pay attention to energy saving products, I decided to purchase one myself. I find the product to be the perfect fit for tea drinkers and coffee press users. Not bad for the occasional Ramen noodles in a cup!

Great way to save energy and have hot water on demand

This little pot heats up 3 liters of water in a flash and holds temperature with little power consumption compared to repeatedly heating a teapot on the stove. You can select the hold temperature, reboil or use 7 hour delay heating... Gets rid of chlorine and degases the water, hence water tastes better. The unit is teflon coated and so it doesn't rust like some cheaper models. To descale (get rid of calcium build-up) you can use 1/8 cup of vingear in the water, close top, boil and pump to dispense the acidified water; rinse and use all neat and clean. High quality kitchen device - Small foot pad - Looks great on counter top!

Zen!

My Zojirushi helps me get so relaxed!

In Japan where I grew up these "Magic Decanter" electric pots were at every household. After many years of living in the U.S. and not having it I finally bought one from Amazon and realized how much I had missed it!

Now, I can have my cup of tea instantly, don't have to fumble and wait with a kettle or a stove. And when I'm really famished, I can make cup noodles instantly and scarf it down. When I have surprise guests, I can serve them hot tea immediately.

I'm loyal to the brand so I had to have this one, but if you want something cheaper Amazon sells Panasonic NC-EH30PC 3 Quart Electric Thermo Pot for about $70 with free shipping. Check it out - it's essentially the same thing. As for the Zojirushi, I love the brand and it's a really good product but I took 1 star off for the price, as well as the lack of "ON/OFF" button. (You have to plug on/off instead.)

Also, they could improve the ease/difficulty of using the timer setting in order to have the machine shut off automatically (most people shut it off during night to save electricity, and have it automatically turn on before you wake up in the morning). I still can't figure out how to set my timer, it seems confusing to me.
