Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Sunbeam 6131 Hot Shot Hot Water Dispenser, Black
Customer Review: Bought it again
Summary: 5 Stars
I've been using one version or another of the Hot Shot for more than 20 years. The earlier versions came with their own carafe; convenient but not essential. The one I just bought is my fourth, and it is doing its work in my office, while the older one stays at home. There is one slight difference with the new one that I'm less happy with. Read on.
The first one our family had (I bought it for my parents) eventually broke. The heating switch shared the front of the Hot Shot with the dispenser button, and it eventually broke off after many years.
The next one doubled as a mousetrap! The cover of it had a little piece at the bottom that was right angle to the main cover. Apparently a mouse got into the house and was climbing over the Hot Shot and stepped on that right angle piece. The mouse fell to the bottom of the heating vessel and the cover closed. (I'm happy to say that it was empty and it didn't turn on!) The next morning I heard strange sounds coming from the Hot Shot, and once I was ready to face whatever was inside I brought it onto my deck and tipped it over. Out popped the mouse who then ran for cover. Needless to say, I decided it was time for a new Hot Shot.
So after using the new Hot Shot for a few years I decided I needed to make my own tea or coffee at work rather than running to the cafeteria for it. When I tried to place my extra-tall mug under the dispenser, I discovered that it wouldn't fit without tipping it slightly--enough so if that if it were full it would spill. The older one at home had no trouble with the fit.
This tight fit is a very minor problem. I use the Hot Shot at work every day, and I use the one at home several times a day, heating water for everything, even for cooking on the stove--it's that much faster than the cooktop for heating water that I can usually heat two or even three full batches (16 ounces each) of water in the Hot Shot faster than the stove can heat one batch of 16 ounces. When I'm impatient (most of the time), I use the Hot Shot as well as the stove to reduce the overall heating time of almost any quantity of water. Too bad you can't use it for other liquids!
Bottom line--A simple and great product. Does exactly what it claims to do and it's very dependable. Definitely worth having.
