Zojirushi CD-FAC22 Zutto Micom Electric Dispensing Pot
I purchased this so I can have hot water all the time without having to boil on the stovetop. I returned this product, after receiving because I don’t like the non stick coating on the interior. Instead I purchased Sunpentown SP-3618 Stainless Steel Hot Water Pot with Multi-Temp Function. This was much cheaper in price and had the stainless stain interior without the nonstick coating. It also has a nice light up feature when you press the unlock button for dispensing the water, which is good at night. You don’t have to turn on the light to see where to put your cup.

This dispenser doesn’t have the On/Off switch, which was not immediately clear from reading the item description. Unplugging it all the time is not a good or safe option. I returned it to the seller and was charged approx. $9 for shipping

This pot is easy to use, convenient, compact, good looking and a great investment.

I have high expectations for Zojirushi’s products. I’ve purchased a similar water dispenser (CD-JSC22) for myself a year ago and I swear I can’t live without it because I drink tea all the time. I wouldn’t expect it to malfunction in 10 years, but I’m quite bummed by the fact that it’s Made in China. I was ready to return it if it’s not the best looking dispenser in the market right now.
The recipient/user of this pot will be mostly using poland spring bottled water in this pot, so he’ll be unable to test out the filter.
One can expect to get hot water 24/7 from this pot (except for the 20min down time when the water’s boiling), nothing fancy. My family has a larger water dispenser of this sort at home, which is already 10+ years old. If you keep it in one place and take care to not soak it in water, it’s an extremely stable product. I’ll update this review with any technical issues I have.

If you use hot water throughout the day, this thing is the best. It’s the best looking of all the water dispensers, but I only wish that it had a bigger capacity. By the way, Zojirushi is really the standard for Japanese small appliances, and I know at least 6 households with some model of their hot water dispensing pot. All of the newer ones are superb and it just depends on the look, size and volume to determine which one you prefer.
We use it to make tea, add water to espresso for americanos, and any other time we need hot water. It was virtually indispensable when our baby was born since we used it constantly to warm up breastmilk.
