ZOJIRUSHI CD-NAC40BM Micom Water Boiler & Warmer, 4.0 Liter, Metallic Black

This water boiler is so convenient! We use it several times a day. I don't need to run gallons of water at the tap to get hot water. This makes the availability of hot water an immediate option. I appreciate the opportunity to set the temperature and love that it is spot on. My hubs uses a neti pot and this boiled water is safe to use because it is held at a high temperature all the time. Highly recommend!

Boils water quickly, nice colour grey, excellent quality item. My previous Zojirushi water boiler lasted 10 years (every day use) but the seals started to degrade and they no longer make replacement lid, so I had to buy a new one.

I’ve read the commentary of lots of people comparing this to a kettle. It is not a kettle, it is a device which provides instant boiling water. It takes a while to boil when refilled (~45min) but that’s because it only pulls 800Wh. While holding the water’s temperature it pulls around 35Wh. Consequently it is very quiet while boiling and does not risk tripping your breaker if you’re doing other things. Its dispenser is very high quality & does not drip. You can set a timer to delay boiling and it will be DONE for the time you set. Additionally there is no auto-off (aside of dry boil) because, again, this is a device which provides instant boiling water and not a kettle. It also sings! Highly highly recommend this device.

Great so far

Hands down my most favorite appliance! The price at first is a bit daunting but it has paid for itself more than once. It gets used every single day. I purchased the Japanese 4L model and set it to the highest water temp for teas, coffees and even soups. The size is perfect and it does not take very long to warm up and the water stays hot all day all night. The song it plays when the water is done boiling is also a nice touch. If you drink a lot of tea or coffee or even instant noodles, having hot water available 24/7 is a game changer. I do have to do the citric acid cleanse about once a month for calcium, water deposits and build up even though it is filled with filtered water but it has never affected the taste of the water or the function of the machine. Very pleased with my purchase!
