They are really common in Japan. I think every house and office I
was ever in there had one. I bought an earlier version of the
Zojirushi in Japan before you could find them here and have been
using it for a long time.

I like the look of that! I don't need hot water all that often,
though.

I use mine all of the time. Not the device above but my faucet that
runs hot water. I use it when I clean out the hummingbird feeders,
when I make ramen, iced tea, some soups and I use it to bring water
to a boil on the stove faster. The thing is great. I am determined
to keep it but I'll get a new machine that installs under the sink.
The thing is really handy, especially ramen tea and cocoa like drinks.

I wonder if this thing (the one George posted) would be helpful to my
mother? She doesn't make ramen but she likes the occasional cup of cocoa or
tea. I didn't think about the hummingbird feeder I'd just made "nectar"
and hung hers up a couple of days before I left.
