I searched for a rustic, unique fireplace screen for many months and they all started looking the same to me. I have a large stone fireplace in a post and beam home so, I didn't want a fancy or frilly screen. This is perfect, it seemed rather imposing at first but, the fit is exactly what I was looking for. It's very heavy and beautifully made. It was worth the wait.

I love the looks of this fireplace, but it is cheaply made.. It had alot of scratches and also missing parts.. Don't waste your money..

This has got to be the most expensive piece of crap Ive ever paid for. Normally I would flush it down the toilet, but this wouldnt fit. Theyve had to ship out a new base, the original was cracked. One of the middle pieces fell apart as i was screwing it together, must be that high quality china glue. When i recieved the new base, i started putting it together and one of the cheap plastic threaded inserts was missing. So now i still cant put this thing together. Almost every part has some type of damage to it. Typical China crap!!!

Other than every other complaint, it does look really nice. haha

Id give it a zero if i could, but for some reason it has to be at least a one.

I bought this item but with the gel fireplace insert. The entertainment center is still the same model number but this product has the electric fireplace insert.

POORLY CONSTRUCTED AND PACKAGED!

When I received my items:

*the top panel trim on the left side was coming off, there was a dent in the middle, and the trim on the right side was barely hanging on

*the base panel was cracked in the front

*the upper firebox trim was broken (piece that supports the top panel beneath the television and above the firebox insert)

*the 2 back panels had either a large vertical scratch or had a hole

*multiple discolorations (white where it should be black) and scratches throughout every piece

*Assembly guide included with the fireplace insert but not for the entertainment center (I had to Google search for it and found it on the Home Depot website.)

I beg you. Please do not buy this item! It is NOT worth the money and you might as well invest in an already assembled/mostly assembled fireplace/entertainment center locally. I called Cymax to get a WHOLE product replacement and they wanted pictures of the damages, which I sent. Although Cymax claimed it was a whole product replacement, Real Flame DID NOT send out a whole product replacement but only sent the replacement parts after reviewing my claim. Unfortunately, some of the replacement parts did not screw properly with the original parts that I had already. Also, the left side of the top panel was beginning to come off just like the original top panel that was being replaced. Since I tried to assemble the fireplace, it is not in it's original condition. Hence I did not even bother with returning it, getting up to 50% of the price paid, and deducting even more for shipping the item back to Cymax. Needless to say, I threw everything away out of sheer frustration and bought an electric fireplace/entertainment center from Havertys.

A complete disaster, waste of money, and time!!!

Arrived in 2 days with Prime. Assembly was extremely easy and only took 30-45 minutes. Fireplace looks great and the Walnut finish looks fantastic. The space behind the fireplace unit offers a lot of room for surge protectors and cords so the unit can sit flush against the wall. Highly recommended.

This is actually a beautiful entertainment center. i love it and everyone that has seen it so far has said how much they love it.There is a strong odor when you remove it from the box but it goes away quickly. I gave it 3 stars due to the cons but overall its a nice piece.

Pros: Beautiful. nice color, Sturdy, movable shelves, good overall width and height. The fireplace is really nice with the ability to give off heat or not and the dynamic flame. There is a large area of open space behind the fireplace unit.

Cons: Very little room between shelves and the back covering board. So for larger plugs it is a problem. The width of the individual shelves is an issue. My receiver did not fit (i looked up a bunch of other receivers dimensions and they would have the same problem). I had to take the back board off and push it in from the back. I left plenty of space above for overheating issues. There were some defects in the wood but you can only seen them when your right next to it. Many of the bolts that are locked in did not match up perfectly. The front right portion also did not match up with the molding from the sides to the center portion. The fireplace portion has chainmail type covering over the glass. This does not sit perfectly vertical but you only really notice when your close. The fireplace unit (which is separate)does not fit perfectly against the rear of the hearth portion (center) but it does screw in so it is secure.

I was hesitant to buy this heater because I saw a review saying it did not look good, well, I took my chances and I am SO glad I did! Not only the price was great, but the product itself is all I wanted, safe, energy efficient and great looking!, the seller was very helpful too.

It took my husband 15 minutes to install it and it looks great in our bathroom!! I agree that if people have tiny little bathrooms it might seem bulky, but in our bathroom looks spectacular. We went with the slate white, as we have dark tile and wanted to accent it. It takes only 15 minutes to warm the bathroom.

Will recommend this product to anybody!

This does not mount "flush" on the wall. If the product had been correctly represented in the ad, I would have put the wall outlet on a different wall. It looks good and I think will work out well, but I am totally fritzed that I have to call the electrician back in and put in another outlet so that the "back side" heater apparatus will not be as prominent. Had I known, I could have easily had the outlet put in the right wall. Now the drywall is in and the bathroom painted... Grrrrr...it looks good, but the product description is waaaaay off. Understand that there is a good 4 inches of utility chrome heating element behind the granite slab and that the heating element is vented out the top, so it cannot mount with the granite flush to the wall or you would be venting heat into the space inside your wall. Picture is totally inaccurate. The only way the picture is accurate is if they are heating the room behind the granite slab. LOL! Not likely.

This product works as billed. It opens when powered, and closes when the power is shut off.

However, it looks and is cheaply built.

For starters, I had to remove the damper and straighten it by bending it back in shape and placing a couple of washers on the damper bar to shim it and make it close properly against the cheap foam weatherproof strip. Then I had to carefully peel off and reapply the weatherstrip against which the damper rests when closed. It was put on crooked. It's a cheezy setup.

When looking to purchase a motorized damper, I reviewed the different products on line and chose this one because it was $20 to $30 cheaper. Their are not a lot of options for a 4" motorized damper.

The more expensive dampers looked to have a better weatherstrip design, as well as a smaller motor. Some seemed to incorporate a flange inside the vent, against which the damper firmly rested. Not just a dinky piece of foam crookedly slapped on the inside.

But in the end, it cost me more for this product, because I had to purchase the 24 volt transformer, which cost me $27 dollars at Radio Shack. This is important to consider.

In the end, had I bought one of the better designed dampers, I would have paid less, because they ALSO provided a transformer in the package.

This damper is doing the job ok for me, I'm just saying that there are probably better designed products out their for the same money.

I bought this product in an attempt to replace a fireplace. The fireplace was worn out and the replacement cost was 10k which I wasn't going to pay. this product appeared to be a decent replacement for the wall and would throw a little heat. But product flaws resulted in a product return.

Pros: The flame looks really good. It has that fire mesmerizing effect. You can stare at it a long time and it keeps your attention. It isn't burning wood but I think it's better looking than gas.

Cons: In my opinion, in order to look good you need to mount it IN the wall at least partially as it is shown in the Yosemite videos on Youtube and that's where the trouble starts. If you mount it ON the wall as the skimpy manual describes, the front just hangs in space 6 inches from the wall and looks kinda weird. I didn't like that look. Maybe it would be ok on a far wall or a recessed wall area but in my room the fireplace is on an exterior wall that also contains the entrance door. I don't want to be able to see the ugly metal box behind the front every time I enter the house.

But mounting it IN the wall appears dangerous to me because the heat is sourced from vents in the bottom. I can't figure out how to mount it in the wall in a safe way to allow the hot air to circulate through the unit. I suppose you could mount it in a sheet rock lined enclosure bigger than the box and mostly covered by the face plate but without any guidance in the manual on this, I'm worried that I would be creating a fire hazard.

The bottom vent is open, the heating element appears to be accessible, and seems that a young child could stick their hand up and burn themselves pretty easily if you mounted it on the wall as required 50cm off the floor.

The controls on the box are on the side which is another problem if you want to attempt a flush mount. The remote worked 50% of the time and I couldn't figure out where the receptor was to get it to work more consistently.

If you are tempted to put it in just for looks and flush mount it, beware, because the controls are on the side you are only going to have the remote to control it, and since you can't disable the heater, you might press the wrong button on the remote and turn on the heater while it is embedded in the wall. There is no visual indication of the heater setting except on the side mounted control so the first indication that you made a mistake might be smoke from your house burning down.

Bottom line(s): Look at the photos that show it mounted on the wall and decide if you can tolerate that look before you buy. Do not be confused by the "insert" Yosemite fireplaces shown in the video. If you have young children I wouldn't purchase this unit due to the bottom vent design.

Nice flames, good modern look, quick shopping and it even has sound. I am very happy with this purchase. The only downside is it must be mounted on the wall not in it because of the location of the buttons. Still looks good.

Cons:

A bit subjective but the flame did not feel that real or "warm" even though it was a lot nicer than units that were in a lower price point

Did not have the heat output that my room needed, I don't think it could easily handle 200 square feet as specified

I am very pleased with this heater. It has one or two quirks that I didn't expect (hence the 4.5 stars), but it puts out a terrific amount of heat, looks great and was a real bargain Amazon is the best.

What I didn't expect:

* It's much larger than I expected. My impression based on the pictures I could find was that it was much smaller, but be prepared for a sizeable heater;

* Contrary to the description, it doesn't have a digital temperature readout. I was a little annoyed at first, but then most temperature gauges don't work well anyway, and I heat the room to feel comfortable and not to a specific temperature, so this doesn't matter much to me now;

* The thermostat works differently than I expected. The unit puts out a constant amount of heat, regardless of the setting, but the higher thermostat settings make the unit run until the room is hotter before it shuts off, which works fine;

* I run my heater on a 40 lb. propane bottle. If you plan to run on a bottle, be prepared to buy a pressure regulator, hose and some fittings. Oddly, I couldn't find the right combination from Mr. Heater, but did buy the Red Dragon kit on Amazon, which works well. The only other fitting I needed was an adapter from 3/8" NPT to 3/8" flare, which was only $3 at the local hardware store;

* I read reviews elsewhere that the internal fan is quiet. I like the fact that it has the fan, but find it a bit noisy to my taste. Since I have a vaulted ceiling and ceiling fans, I will rarely use the internal fan. It seems to work fine without it and runs almost silently, which is very nice.

Overall, a real deal in my opinion that suits my needs almost perfectly.

August 2011 Update: A few more observations after using the heater for a while:

* we can smell the byproducts of combustion in the room when we use this heater. This is not surprising since the combustion gases are vented into the room. As a result, we use it sparingly (usually just to warm the room) since the smell can be unpleasant, and undoubtedly isn't good for your health if used extensively;

* burning propane relases a fair bit of water vapour into the room, so we get condensation on the windows. Again, this is not a surprise;

* this heater is certified by the Canadian Standards Association (CSA), which is one of the reasons I bought it. However, the CSA approval is only for use in the USA; these types of unvented heaters are not approved for use in Canada;

* I did some reading online about unvented heaters (sadly after I bought this unit). Anyone interested in buying unvented heaters would do well to read up about the pros and cons before buying.

Ordered the heater back in May of 2012. A licensed plumber (certified in propane) installed the 16 feet of propane line. My jaw dropped when I got his bill: $400.05 -did he really need to include that nickel? The heater cost me $179.95 and I see that it is now going for $239.95. You might want to purchase it off season.

I hooked up the heater to a 15 gallon propane tank and connected the line to the tank using a Mr. Heater 5-Feet Propane Hose/Regulator Assembly. It says right on the regulator, "LOW PRESSURE." ***BE SURE YOUR REGULATOR CAN DELIVER LOW PRESSURE (i.e., it may be a hose rated for high pressure that you can turn down, but you need to run low pressure into the heater or it can damage it. I didn't want to take that chance of any faulty guesswork, so I purchased the hose that had the words "LOW PRESSURE" stamped right on the regulator).

11/07/2012 -EDIT: I wish I had seen this before I bought the other hose hookup. I would have purchased it: Red Dragon SL-1C Low Pressure Propane Hook Up Kit With 10-Foot Hose. Just copy and paste it into the search bar and see what you think.

The instructions tell you to put the control knob on "Pilot" and then press it down (push on it straight down, toward the floor) and hold it for 30 seconds if this is the first time you're using it. Boy, were they ever wrong. First of all, it depends on how long your line is from the tank. My 16 foot run took about 3 minutes to get gas to the pilot light! So, be patient and don't do what I did -wasted some of my AA battery by clicking the igniter constantly for about 30 seconds before I realized what was happening. Just keep holding that big knob down in the Pilot position and then try the igniter every 15 seconds or so until it flames. Once that flame starts, they say to continue depressing the knob for another 30 seconds. Well, that's a bunch of bull crap. You can take your hand off after 6 seconds. Count 'em. The flame will not blow out the pilot once 6 seconds have ticked by.

Our house is 1,727 sq ft. We keep all three bedroom doors, the guest bathroom door and the laundry room door, closed. I'm guessing we're heating around 1,100 sq ft with the heater.

Here are some statistics you might find interesting...

A gallon of propane weighs approximately 4.2 lbs.

A gallon of propane has a burn rate of approximately 100,000 BTUs (British Thermal Units) per hour. This means that if you run your heater continuously (30,000 BTUs) you will be consuming propane at a rate of about 1/3 gallon per hour. At 33,000 BTUs, your heater would be right at the1 gallon per hour approximation. I am guessing that my 15 gallon propane tank could therefore run for about 50 hours (because I'm only burning 30K and not 33K). The shorter the time you have your heater on, the longer you'll go between refills of your propane tank. (What's HUD spelled backwards?)

Since I don't want to do the math to calculate how long I can go (in theory) between refills by running my heater for 6 minutes on after each 50 minutes off (see my experiment below), 14 times per day, I went ahead and wrote the date of the last fill on the tank itself. When it becomes empty, I will have my answer and I'll let you know. I started with an empty tank and it took on 14.4 gallons of propane when I filled it at the local station. By the way -I paid $2.99 per gallon! It is much cheaper at other locations, but I was too excited to wait.

Here are some results from a runtime experiment I've conducted:

Cycle #1:

Outdoor temperature: 55.6 F

Indoor temperature: 68.4 F

Time heater not burning: 56 min 46 sec

Time heater burning: 5 minutes 50 seconds

Cycle #2:

Outdoor temperature: 56.8 F

Indoor temperature: 68.5 F

Time heater not burning: 44 min 3 sec

Time heater burning: 5 min 54 sec

Cycle #3:

Outdoor temperature: 56.8 F

Indoor temperature: 68.5 F

Time heater not burning: 51 min 39 sec

Time heater burning: 5 min 32 sec

On the large heat control knob, there are small raised dots. There is a dot right at the "1" and then four more dots is where the "2" is. To achieve these runtime intervals (i.e., on/off times), I have set the dial to one dot past the "1" and this is where we achieve our 68 degrees (with temps in the 50s outdoors).

Something you should also know, and I had to find this out from experience. I thought that the low setting would set the flame lower and on the high setting, the flames would be larger. Not so. The dial is merely a thermostat. The flames are pretty much full whether the heater is on LOW or on HIGH. I did notice a little more flame at the very top end of the dial, but it's not much. To control the temperature in the house, therefore, all you need to do is select a spot on the dial and leave it there.

We keep our house at 68 degrees and dress warmer if we get a little chilly. But I am here to tell you, you'll burn a lot more propane if you keep your house just 2 degrees warmer and to us, it's just not worth it. We "wear" our 2 degrees and it doesn't cost us a penny more.

Here's something else -the pilot runs while the flame is off. BUT -when you are not going to be running the heater, just turn the whole thing off, including the fan.

The fan is rather wimpy, but adequate. I think it moves more air than we might think, but if you want more "wind," you might want to augment it with a small electric fan.

CARBON MONOXIDE CAN KILL YOU! -Having researched many opinions about vent free heaters running inside a home, I decided to go out and purchase a CO (carbon monoxide) detector with alarm. I have a model that includes a digital display of actual levels of Carbon Monoxide and it displays the reading in parts per million. The very first sign of CO poisoning is a frontal headache. Go read all you care to about CO poisoning and what symptoms are brought about by what levels of toxicity (you never want it above 70ppm and you definitely need to leave the house if it ever gets up to 100ppm, but my device detects zero Carbon Monoxide. I have placed the device atop a set of shelves about 30 inches, nearly directly above, the heater. That said, we still have plenty of ventilation in our manufactured home (bathroom fans pull air into the enclosure through vents in our window design) and the heater does come with a low oxygen shut-down safety feature. Which I don't trust. Which is why I bought the CO detector/alarm unit.

Obviously, it is still a warm Autumn with mild outdoor temperatures. But that's all gonna change soon. We bought this heater in preparation for the power outages we'll face when the big Pacific Northwest storms start pounding us.

I am giving the Mr Heater Model #VF30KBLUELP 30,000 BTU Vent Free Propane Heater 5 stars. Wimpy fan or not, this is a kick-butt alternative to any dependence on electric furnaces when the power goes out. And I think it can also hold its own as a primary heat source in any area with adequate ventilation (along with a CO detection device, just to be on the safe side).

Hope this review helped.

I have used several different types of this kind of stove in different locations. Currently have an all electric house with a pellet stove. Found a really nice like new 50 gallon upright propane tank at a yard sale that I'm using right now.

This is not a good do it yourself project for a home owner. These things require a real installation from someone trained and qualified. Once I got the tank, it needed a regulator, a POL, two pieces of flex (one outdoor, one indoor) a ball shut off valve, some schedule 80 black iron pipe to go through the wall with a lot of other pipe parts and a sediment trap.

THEN once everything is set up, it REQUIRES a real leak test and a gas check before it's put into service.

Once all that was installed correctly and completely tested out? It worked great. Probably took over half an hour to get gas to the pilot light though. Which is normal, air gets in there and it has to be purged out while the thing is attempting to get lit up.

Settings on the control go from 1 5. Have not had it beyond the '1' mark yet. 3 bedroom, two bath house getting into the 20's at night, mid 30's during the day I used 10 gallons of propane the first week.

Can't hear it come on and off as it cycles through it's thermostat. Fan has an automatic setting so it doesn't have to run all the time, either.

Big plus with this one for me was that it comes with the legs and fan. Isn't as much fun to watch as my old vent free fireplace but it sure does get the job done for heating this house and is probably less than half what the stupid pellet stove was costing me. With NO hassle. And the propane company will come out and fill the tank the day after I call if it starts getting low.

Couple of the wood stove die hard neighbors are coming around to check this out. Can imagine it won't be too long before they have one of these, too!

It probably took a little over 2 1/2 hours to install.

The shipping on this was a real treat, too. Came right away in perfect shape. Sure don't have any complaints on this one!

This heater works as well as I had hoped it would and I couldn't be happier with the purchase. The "auto" function for the blower fan, for example, causes a delay in the fan operation until enough heat is built up from the flame before it comes on. When the target temperature is reached, the flame goes off and the fan continues to run until it is no longer blowing warm air, then it stops blowing. In other words, this little portable heater work exactly like the furnace in your house is designed to work. It exceeds my expectations.

Ok, I took a little time before reviewing this heater because I wanted to use it for a few days. Here is what I found. Some have said it is large. Yes, its a bit large but it puts out 30,000 BTU's and heats my cabin of 1,000 sq ft. It's not a portable like Mr Heaters Big Buddy's which I also have. There are no handles on it to carry it around. For me at least it is a permanent heater. You can hang it on the wall or attach the legs for floor use.

Setting it up was not difficult but be aware you will need some pipes and connections as it only comes with one elbow for floor use. Some parts I got from Amazon and had my local hose guy put it all together. I did the rest.

Now comes the use of it. At first I had a few problems with the thermostat. It would come on and stay on which made my cabin way too hot. After texting with Bill Sisley at Mr Heater, a great tech by the way, He helped figure out my problem. Notice I said my problem not the heaters. The problem was a draft.

Now the thermostat works perfectly and so does the blower fan. The heater works like a furnace in a large house

All in all it's a great heater and I would recommend it. Just know, you will need to purchase some parts.

One last thing, The heater including the fan is very quiet.

Approx size 16.25" high to top of handles, 14.5" wide on sides & 15.5" side to side. Metal bin is painted flat black, slightly textured. Not solid metal but seems strong enough for intended use & light enough to carry around. Easy assembly-just attach bottom to each side using 4 bolts with nuts. Supplied allen wrench fit, but other one didn't-you'll need small crescent wrench to tighten up nuts. Bin has plastic feet to protect floor, sides bow out just a bit & it stores more than bins that have curved bottoms or sides.

Carrier fits inside the bin better than the picture shows, bin can be used with or without carrier. Size is 14" wide by 36.5" long excluding handles-assemble by pushing wood rods thru each end & thru handle loops. Suede leather is chestnut color, is stitched & riveted so should hold up well. It's lined with black synthetic material that makes it easy to keep clean & protect the suede. It's slightly narrower than other log totes, but sufficient for most fire wood.

Made in China by Panacea Products of Ohio, maker of other fireplace accessories. More functional than most other bins, no excessive decoration & good size for most hearth areas. Can also be used for storing & carrying other items magazines, blankets, pillows, toys, books, etc. when not using around the fireplace. Overall a nice bin & carrier.

This log rack is very functional and attractive. It is a bit on the small side, and therefore works particularly well for small hearths such as mine. My only complaint, and the reason I gave it three stars rather than five, is because if it is constructed according to directions the two vertical elements wobble due to the fact that no nuts are provided to stabilize the joints where 4 screws are applied. It was easily corrected: I bought 4 acorn nuts at my local hardware store, put them on and spray painted them black. However this is something the manufacturer should be providing.

My fire pit is built into my patio. The problem has been airflow. I had been placing logs on the bottom of the pit, not understanding that I needed to lift them so air could flow from the bottom (duh) and this is from a woman who has had a wood burning stove for years. Well, this was perfect, although it is really small for my needs. Make sure to measure carefully, as I didn't and will need to order another one. Its very sturdy, holds up under a heavy load of logs.

I ordered this and it came with the center grate missing. When I examined it you could see that the bars were just spot welded. This is low quality and I would not even get a new one. It will clarly start loosing the bars accross the grate over time. Did not get a replacement. Don't waste your time on this product.

works ok with cans, extends coolness of beverage but not for long time .. looks cool at my desktop

While the CoolIT Beverage Chiller isn't powerful enough to even keep a drink cool, I found a way to keep my drink cold until I finish it. Get a koozie (foam can holder), cut out the bottom, put it around a soda can and stick the can on the CoolIT chiller. Granted, most of the job is done by the koozie, but near the end of the can, it does make a difference.

You're delusional if you think a USB port can take a drink from room temp and make it nice and cold. If you want to do that for $30, again, you're crazy.

Now, if you want an apparatus that keeps cold drinks from warming up as fast and also keeps the bottom half of your can of soda colder much longer, this is perfect. Assuming you crack open a beverage when it's cold, this thing is great. The top half of the drink is gone before it warms up. It's the bottom half that causes problems and this does the job.

Not even close to as loud as some reviews say it is. Yeah, it hums...but it's the same level of sound as the power supply on the CPU, so it's not like I even notice. Granted, this thing is closer to the user than the power supply, but it makes no difference.

I liked this thing. Got it as a gift and it is useful only for aluminum can drinks.

The CoolIT USB Beverage Chiller is a great idea with not-so-great execution. It only keeps the bottom part of the beverage cold, and not so much that you would notice a difference. The fan is loud. All-in-all an unimpressive product. I'm sending mine back.

I got this device as an early Christmas gift and was mildly excited (I love gadgets). I tested it out in a well air-conditioned office on cans of Diet Coke.

Can 1: fresh out of the box, never opened, & placed on chiller for 1hr. Results: no noticable change in temp.

Can 2: one hour in fridge, never opened, then onto chiller for 1.75 hrs. Results: soda got slightly warmer.

Can 2: 3 hours in fridge, opened, then onto chiller where I sipped it over the course of an 1.5 hrs. Results: it got warmer at what seemed like the standard rate.

This device does not work as advertised. It did not keep my drinks cool. It did not delay the warming. Not a worthwhile gift and certainly not worth $25. Save your money and use ice.

Other downsides: No on/off switch, can only be powered via USB, and it is heavy enough that laptop users will leave it behind.

Zojirushi CV-DSC40 VE Hybrid Water Boiler and Warmer, Stainless Steel

I am a recently disabled adult that cannot get enough of a good cup of tea. So seeing this I thought it would make a nice birthday present for me, and make life a little easier around the kitchen. It performs as it says it will.

It looks bulky but is surprisingly lightweight and easy to handle. The whole unit spins on a lazy-susan device making it east to direct the steam vent away from kitchen surfaces.

You will need a water pitcher of some kind to fill this easily. I have a medium sized one sand simply filly the pitcher twice to fill this device once. The handle on top, removable lid, and notched corner makes emptying and cleaning a breeze.

The temperature features are splendid and accurate, there are three:

205 for noodles/ramen etc, herbal infusions, pu-er, Assam and some other black teas..

195 For Darjeeling or delicate blacks like Illam valley are at this temperature as well, let the water sit a few minutes in the brew pot befor adding tea leaves, if you have a very delicate tea.

175 for green or white teas. A few of the more delicate whites fill the tea pot first, then add the leaves. By filling your teapot dry first, this allows the water to lose 5-10F by just warming the pot. Often enough to make a better flavored tea.

On a given day I can go from pu-er tsocha right from boiling, and set the temp to 195. Make a pot of bold assam in the afternoon when at a full boil, then set the temp to 175. Now, after dinner it is set for making jasmine tea for dessert. All with a minimal energy usage and cost.

I have found it a good idea to refill it only 1-2 times then empty the remains, give it a brush inside with a towel, and then let it completely dry. My scale buildup was reduced quite a bit this way.

For a fully able person this unit -isa bit of a luxury. A simple electric teapot with temperature control would do you just fine for a fraction of the initial cost. This will make cost up over time by the thermos nature though, just a fyi.

Have a chain tea drinker in your life though or thoughts for limited commercial use (like a small teahouse), or like tea but have a very full life and time schedule? This would make a great gift for you or even a small splurge to treat yourself.

UPDATE:

Almost two years later and it not only looks fine but functions just as well as the day I got it. I have to descale it about every 9 months or so. Other than that it is pretty maintenance free. Talk about longer term bang for your buck. If you drink tea or would use boiling water on a daily basis, this is a staple for your kitchen.

Some other uses I found. When making soup, rice, thinning a sauce, or deglazing a pan fill your measuring device from the Zojirushi set in slow pour. I now use water from the boiler and the hot water not only speeds up the process, but some flavors are left alone because the room temp water would have cooled the dish and altered the flavors.

I have also found the steel finish wipes very easily. A friend who bought the white version has some staining that stubbornly persists to this day. All in all if you get one you will not be disappointed.

(small edits made above with input from trial and error over the period I've owned this boiler.)

This is my third Zojirushi electric boiler and the best so far! It boils water quickly, dispenses water at a rate that prevents splashing and saves energy by using vacuum insulation. In response to an earlier review, I placed a digital thermometer probe inside a nearly full pot to gauge the accuracy of the unit. The selected temperature of 195 degrees Fahrenheit was measured to be 192 degrees. This difference seems insignificant considering thermometer margin of error. Also, the water temperature does rise above the highest setting of 208 degrees but this is ONLY after boiling. It does return to the selected temperature and maintains at this setting. Lastly, the unit is so well insulated that after choosing the "vacuum insulation" setting which uses no electricity until dispensing water, 195 degree water was still 150 degrees 8 hours later. This is quite an impressive unit.

If you're looking for hot-water on tap for tea, hot cereals, instant soups, ramen, etc this is a very convenient item.

I drink green teas heavily, and bought it based on the strength of reviews and the Zojirushi brand reputation. I was not disappointed.

I fill it up from the tap, move it to the counter and plug it in. It usually boils in around an hour, and then settles back down to the (adjustable) setpoint in another 1.5 ~ 2 hours. Although I haven't taken a thermometer to its output to verify consistency, I've had great results from the teas I use, so the variations can't be too wild.

As is common with Japanese consumer products the controls are well thought out. It has an unlock button to prevent you shooting water onto the floor or something else accidentally, and the double action lever to open the top makes it hard to have your hand in the way & get a steam burn as you open it.

The water level is clearly visible via a clear tube with a patterned background, and the 4L capacity suits my tea usage for somewhere between 4 and 7 days, depending on just how much I happen to feel like having.

I especially recommend it if you're a Macha tea fan, as it makes the process remarkably fast and easy, simply scoop your tea into a bowl, add some water straight from the Zojirushi, whisk and enjoy.

The only design annoyance I've seen is that the power plug relies on magnets to hold itself in the socket. This is itself a good idea, except most of the body is metal. So if you position the dispenser such that you 're trying to plug it up from behind and can't see where the plug should be exactly, the magnet sticks to the body anywhere you put it until you can feel around for the socket. A fairly minor annoyance, but one that could have been fixed by making the body out of plastic further around the plug socket.

Very solid overall product.

This is the first water heater I've bought although my in-laws have one. And it is exactly what one has learned to expect of a made-in-Japan electronic device: it is cute, functional, very easy to use, unobtrusive (except when if finishes boiling water and plays a short Bach minuet which my wife likes), and most importantly: operates exactly how you want it to with no annoyances! (What could be worse than a device that annoys you every time you use it?) Here's a small example of its design perfection: the unlock button keeps it unlocked long enough so that if you pause briefly to look inside your cup you can continue filling without pushing it again. Clearly a masterfully designed water heater. Its one small design flaw (that displays its primary intent for the Japanese market) is that the English text on the buttons extends slightly beyond the circles (whereas I expect the kanji would fit exactly in the circles).

Another issue that I now realize is important is power consumption. It claims to use only 17 watts when maintaining water at 195 deg (with room temp 68 deg). So I don't feel guilty leaving it on all night and can easily get my wife a hot cup of tea when I wake in the morning. I didn't see this power consumption number anywhere before I bought it, although now I would definitely compare power consumption between models before buying one.

I've been using the Zojirushi DSC40 for almost 3 weeks now. The quality and build of this water broiler/warmer is superb. So easy to use and yet very high tech! My wife loves it. My mom now wants one for her place.

The vacuum temperature (no electricity) option works great! It will keep the water termperature at 150 degree for eight hours. If you want it hotter, just press the "REBOIL" button and you will have 212 degree hot water in approximately 7 minutes. Oh and when it does boil water, it's design to emit steam slowly or as less as possible so as to avoid having too much water build up on your cabinet above the unit.

Although the 4 liter capacity is a bit small for our family use, it's really no hassle at all to add more water when it's low. Come to think of it, the 4 liter is perfect because it's not too heavy to move it back and forth from the sink to the outlet when it's full of water.

This unit is definitely worth the high price. You won't regret it.
