Quooker boiling water taps, opinions?
I'm finishing off the kitchen and my wife talked me into getting one of these things against common sense, I have installed it, everything about it seems micky mouse, they are obviously not designed for the UK and are adapted from the Dutch version, I also think that you wouldn't have to be that absent minded first thing in the morning to run it over your arm, what do other people think about them.
on standby it turned itself off twice yesterday, so we had to use the kettle!

Fair enough, but just wrong to state energy consumption as a negative. Same with water but again, minimal cost.
On the wider issue of cost, most things we buy never recoup their cost, we often just find them nicer than a cheaper alternative. Personally, I would like the convenience, think looks neater than a kettle and their safety doesn’t worry me. They are just too expensive...
