At one point many years ago, there was an fad for a “hot shot” small appliances. I guess it’s a similar functionality to a kettle but with more moving parts. It disappeared as quickly as it appeared though.

Holy crap, they still exist!

My mom still uses hers. It’s great.

So does my mom, but hers is really ancient.

I used to like them but since I got the kettle, I prefer

  • more convenience for multiple cups or for ramen, more flexibility
  • no plastic to drink
  • fewer moving parts
  • easier to empty, dry, put away
  • it looks cooler
