Less then a week after DrFaulken’s review of Spectra Merchandising International INC.’s Hello Kitty Mini Water Dispenser, Hamilton Beach’s line of desktop water coolers is making the rounds. These hot and cold water dispensers can hold either three or five gallon bottles and feature child-resistant hot water safety valves and a spill resistant piercing valve. Their desktop line comes in white, black, red and chrome. For some reason these aren’t on sale many places, maybe water consumption is going out of style? Snopes does contend that the eight glasses of water a day guideline is false after all. The only place I saw with one of these for sale was HGTV selling the red model for $68. While it heats and cools the water, its sure a lot more money then the Hello Kitty dispenser. |
But is the hot water hot enough to make tea? Green, perhaps. Black, perhaps not.

I was thinking the same thing, Tommy. I would love to get an electric hot water heater that had multiple temperature settings. The Adagio kettle I’ve been after seems perpetually backordered.
