Know before you buy
The VE (Vacuum-Electric) system uses vacuum insulation technology to keep water hot with minimal electricity. It significantly reduces energy consumption by maintaining the temperature through insulation rather than constant reheating.
Yes. The unit features a vacuum-insulated, non-electric keep-warm mode that allows you to maintain water temperature for several hours without needing a power source.
You can choose from four precise temperature settings: 160°F, 175°F, 195°F, and 208°F. These are ideal for different types of tea, coffee, or instant meals.
The unit features a wide water level gauge equipped with a red ball indicator. This makes it easy to see exactly how much water remains at a glance, even from across the room.
The interior is made of nonstick coated stainless steel, which is designed to resist mineral buildup and make routine cleaning straightforward. Simply wipe it down periodically according to the manual's maintenance instructions.
Quick Temp mode allows the boiler to reach your selected temperature directly without reaching a full boil first. This saves time and reduces the amount of steam produced during the heating process.
