I ordered this since it came with a ceramic bowl. I couldn't understand why you would get the other Hot Shots when you can get this one for the same price and with a ceramic bowl. HERE'S WHY... This model is shorter than the other standard ones. You will NOT be able to get a standard 16 oz mug under it without hitting the drain spout. If you look at the description this one says it's 7.8 x 5.8 x 9.8 inches. The other ones that show a mug under it is:12 x 5 x 4 inches...definitely taller. You can get a 16 oz mug under it but it will have to be a squatted one. Personally I think Sunbeam was stupid for making two different types. This is why I give it only two stars since it should have been in the description. Update - 1/10/13 - I originally gave this two stars but have since changed it to three. I still stand by my original review about the height for 16 oz. mugs, BUT I didn't think it fair to judge... |
| See Products Related To Sunbeam 6142 Hot Shot Hot Water Dispenser with Red Ceramic Bowl, White: Sunbeam The perfect addition to your office, dorm room or any place else you need hot water in a jiffy.Perfect for Home or Office The Hot Shot is a fantastic product. It heats a mug's worth of water faster than anything I know of. I own two of these--one for home and one that sits at my office desk. PROS: Heats water faster than a microwave. Priced right for its value. No cleaning needed (because you're only boiling water with it); takes up minimal space. The ceramic bowl is a nice addition, too. CONS: The space between the water dispenser and the platform is not much more than the length of a standard coffee cup. If you have a big coffee mug (like me), you won't be able to fit it under the dispenser. It's odd that the space is not adjustable (or that the unit isn't just a little taller to accommodate travel mugs). The only other con, if you consider it one, is that it heats only water. You can't (or shouldn't) heat milk, soup, spaghetti-o's, etc. Overall, if you want something that doesn't take up much space and helps make a quick cup of tea or anything that just requires... |
| the best idea for college students I had bought one of these years ago for myself and purchased one for my oldest daughter two years ago from Bed Bath & Beyond for college and it was the hit of the floor (hot tea, hot cocoa, oatmeal). Hers along with this one I just purchased from Amazon (because BB&B didn't have them) came with a bowl which was nice for instant soups too. Heats up fast and with auto shut-off I feel that this little item is well worth the money. By the way, the one I purchased yrs ago is still working!! This item came within a few days and was delivered without any problems. |
