You savages have to wait for hot water? Why not join all of East Asia in the future and get yourself one of these? Four liters of perfectly temped hot water anytime you want..... I honestly don't know how people who drink a lot of hot beverages live without them.

300$ to save maybe s few minutes a day??

Every hot drink, every time you boil anything.

My kettle was $200 specifically for good pour over 🤷‍♂️

Depends on your electric output and how often you do hot beverages/noodles . But we prob use about two to three liters a day, which would take quite a bit of time with 120v.

Also, you can get some that only run like a hundred bucks.

Makes more sense then. I’m on 230V so boiling water for one cup is a matter of maybe a minute or so

I take it you don't make pasta often?

It's for families of tea/hot water drinkers who drink many small cups throughout the day.
