Redmond RTP-M801

Advantages: Handsome, comfortable. Three modes of temperature maintenance - 65 degrees, 85 and 98. 85 - just for tea, - not scalding hot. 65, apparently, will be appreciated only by young parents. Recognizes water refill. You open it, pour it - it itself turns on the boiling mode.

Disadvantages: Tight buttons can, of course, soften over time, but so far you have to make an effort. Tight, including the lever for pressing the cup. Timer step - 3 6 12 24 48 99 hours. The number 9 is not enough, so that it is not late in the evening that you can already turn off the heating until early in the morning.

Comment: There is a timer that allows you to save electricity in the presence of a two / three-rate meter (I poured it overnight looking, set a timer, in the morning there is already boiling water). Even after switching off, the high temperature remains for a very long time. In fact, it is a thermos. The inlet is set just above the bottom - even when (if) scale appears, it will not get into the cup. I fill it with water either from the store or from Aquaphor - while everything is clean. There is a manual pump, although I do not know what it is for =) since the electric one also works smartly and quietly. UPD: A year later, the switch began to junk, I have to tighten my finger at the moment the heating element is turned on. You can, of course, solder, nothing complicated, but I don't have a soldering iron, it's a shame. The switch itself, by the way, is exactly the same as on the system unit, and the cable is the same as for a computer / monitor. And one more know-how: the kettle was slightly overgrown with scale from the inside, so as not to suffer with soda and a sponge, risking pouring the electrician of the device under the tap under the tap, I bought an 80-gram pack of citric acid. 1/2 of this pack was enough to keep the kettle perfectly clean, like new. I just poured 1.5 liters of water, poured 40 grams of acid and boiled it. Just do not forget to drain it all later, otherwise in the morning relatives will complain that the tea is somehow sour. =)

Advantages: There is everything you need in a thermo pot: 1. Normal volume 3.5 liters. - not a lot and not a little. 2. The shutdown button on the case is a trifle, and it's so convenient when you leave for a couple of days you don't need to pull the cord back and forth. 3. The presence of a manual pump. It is very convenient when the guests are at the table - you put it in the middle and each one will pour himself a shake of a grandmother. No wires needed. 4. Ability to select the desired temperature (65, 85 and 95 degrees). I usually always have 95, and in the evening I put 65 and the electricity is not consumed by the device, since the water cools down without heating for a long time. 5. Snooze timer. Convenient thing. Since I set 65 degrees at night to save electricity, the water will be boiled again by the specified time. 6. Protection from children who need it. 7. Normal information content and clarity of the device. Everything is in Russian. The water scale is clearly visible and illuminated when water is poured. 8. Boiling starts automatically after pouring cold water. 9. There is a protection - if there is no water, the device will shut down from the overheating sensor.

Disadvantages: There are no significant ones.I threw off one point because the pump does not pull the last half liter without tilting the device.

Comment: Redmond is, of course, expensive compared to other thermopots. But this is practically the only model in terms of functionality with such a volume for such money. For more than 2 years it has been working as a watch. The most used appliance in the kitchen. I recommend without a doubt.

Advantages: Great thing, convenient for family use. Looks good, how to use it is clear and without instructions. After the first wash, it did not smell of anything "chemical".

Disadvantages: Someone writes that the pressure is strong and everything is sprayed out of the mug. So that this is not possible, you can raise the cup higher to the spout. So this is not a disadvantage.

Comment: We didn't immediately find such a thing as a "tongue" under the filling spout, that is, you can use it, or you can use a button. If you pour water from a minimum to a maximum, then you need to wait 20 minutes, but then the temperature keeps stable, quickly switches between temperature modes. It does not show the current temperature, but I do not consider it necessary.

Advantages: Metal on the outside, stainless steel inside. Automatic and manual filling method (manual is very important when everyone is asleep - because it is silent) Normal volume 3.5 liters, on / off button. backlight for water level and display. Swivel base, removable cover. three heating modes 65-85 and 98 degrees. Ie everything that might be required.

Disadvantages: Critical flaws were not noticed, The shutdown function without water either does not work, or it turns on when the unit is seriously heated - it almost burned out on this. The plastic puffs a little, although it does not come into direct contact with water when heated, the button under the pouring spout is practically useless when you press it with a mug - it is very tight, you press and lift the whole thermopot. The timer, that is, its modes are apparently designed for an irregular Chinese working day, otherwise how can you explain the presence of the 3-6-12-24-48-72 and 99 (!) Hours modes? Usually, you sleep and work for 8 hours, it would be logical to add 7 or 8. But apparently the Chinese sleep either for 3 or 6 hours, and work for 12, 24 or 48. Further, 99 hours, I wonder who and why might need this option 4 days + 3 hours? The mystery of eastern nature ...

Comment: A normal unit - among the Chinese "Auchan-brands" made of phenolic plastic, looks like a good fellow. It has been working for almost a year, the water is very calcareous, every two months the inside is overgrown with a thick coating - it is treated with 3-4 sachets of citric acid, the stainless steel has not faded and has not rusted, which means the materials are quite high quality. Once the display was cut off - it stopped showing the numbers - it recovered itself, after descaling. It does not drip from the spout, it keeps the temperature well. In general, it can be recommended for purchase and moderate use.

Advantages: I am very pleased with the thermopot. Cute, not bulky. 3.5 liters boils for me in 33 minutes and maintains the temperature until the water runs out. It is very quiet, it cannot be compared with a stainless kettle. When water is poured, a nice blue light comes on. Automatically put on It is very convenient. To pour water, you must first press the unlock button. Three ways of filling, press the button, you can bring it to the spout and slightly press with a mug or a mechanical pump. I am glad that after pouring from the spout, even a drop will not drip past. Such, when you fill in new water, he himself switches to boiling, then switches to maintaining the temperature. You can choose 65.85 or 98 degrees. I did not use the timer, I’m boiling water for tomorrow in the evening. Inside it is made of stainless steel, it is convenient to wash.

Disadvantages: My open lid also dangles - the design is probably like that. Not critical.

Comment: My husband has long wanted to buy a thermopot, I resisted, could not understand why we needed it. After all, there is a kettle. Now everyone is happy, very convenient. The main thing is to fill in the water on time so that you do not have to wait long for it to boil. The noisy kettle is gone) )

Advantages: A reliable item for more than 2 years.

Disadvantages: The display sometimes turns off on what was taken to work - but this is eliminated by turning it off for 10 seconds and plugging it back into the outlet, or just a switch. There is a danger of getting burned at the moment of heating with steam if you accidentally stretch your hand from above for something (and this is written on the thermopot), but the inscription is located where the steam goes - and the thermopot is at the top and therefore this inscription is not always noticeable to those who do not know. I would like to have a function for blocking the inclusion of boiling in the absence of water, but as far as I understand this has already been implemented in newer more modern models, I certainly do not know anything about their reliability.

Comment: In general, a decent model, she took it to her parents first, then to the office - both there and there she works perfectly, at work for more than a year, with parents for more than 2 years. TTT. 3.5 liters is enough for 10-15 people. Heats fresh water quickly. We use the timer function at work when we leave for the weekend. For parents (and children) safe pouring lock - without unlocking, will not pour water. I looked at the reviews with negative reviews - everything was earlier than 2015, which means that the manufacturer took into account and eliminated the shortcomings, which is good news. And isolated cases of factory defects tend to be present.

Advantages: - ergonomic modern design (chrome-matte body right under similar large equipment) - nice and well thought-out backlight (when you press unlock, then the backlight turns on, the rest of the time does not light up) - very quiet, quieter than water :) - large volume - 1 a day of active tea drinking + enough cooking - when you pour cold water, the thermopot automatically turns on boiling - it is not too hot by itself

Disadvantages: - pressing keys are tight - right now you need to press your finger into the button - the cover is uncomfortable, with such a weight it would be useful to have some kind of closer so that it does not fall down - uncomfortable set of water - it is too time-consuming to pull the wire out of the thermopot, carry the thermopot to the water, then put heavy into place, connect a wire to it ... you have to type with pots. The solution could be a connector that makes it easier to remove the wire.

Comment: I work at home, and I'm tired of constantly putting / dialing an electric kettle. I read the reviews and realized that I had to take a thermopot. I bought it in the store, making sure at first visually that it is not too bulky. I started using it, it was unusual, because it is bigger than a teapot. However, now that the full potential of the thermopot is revealed, this is a full-fledged gadget, much more respected than the kettle was. It is very convenient, in addition to the standard function: - when you make baths, boil water and take a thermopot with you (there is a special handle for carrying) - half an hour or an hour of hot water will definitely provide. - for cooking pasta, dumplings, etc., you can immediately put hot water into the pan and save time waiting for boiling. - I always have a temperature of 85 degrees. Taking into account that this is also a thermos, I expect to get some savings in the consumed electricity.- very quiet! - boils slowly (half an hour) and therefore quietly, and during periodic heating of water to the set temperature, a quiet click is heard and nothing else is heard. Not very inconvenient: - once burned slightly and remembered: remove the spoon from the mug so that the water does not splash out. - a handle that extends slightly so that it is convenient to lift a rather weighty lid, firstly, it is not very convenient by itself (you have to scoop it up with your nails), and secondly, it has a silver color (and not black, as shown here in the picture ) and is made of cheap plastic. Most likely, it is already covered with micro-scratches: I double-checked all the thermal pots in the store, there were no scratches. In everyday life, these little things do not appear often and not brightly, so I will write them down not in shortcomings, but in comments for those who are especially picky.

Advantages: The water heats up, he himself is not very hot, water does not get into the control panel (a frequent illness in thermopots, from which they die). There is protection from children - do not pour without unlocking, there is also a piston for pouring water without electricity. There is a button for re-boiling and the ability to select 85 degrees so as not to scald with boiling water. The plastic stopped stinking after the 2nd boil. Outwardly beautiful and even after 2 years paint or some kind of film does not peel off anywhere.

Disadvantages: When there is very little water left, and the overheating protection turns on, the screen starts flashing with the EE symbols, which makes it seem that the kettle is dead. However, this is not so, just turn it off, pour water, and turn it on and everything will work. It would be nice to have a more meaningful alarm for water shortages. Also, at first it is inconvenient that in order to pour water, you must first unlock the kettle with a button, but then you get used to it. It's still protection from children.

Comment: I was specifically looking for a kettle with a metal tank and a body (although here the body is only trimmed with metal), and so that water or steam does not get under the panel with buttons, since I heard that this is a common disease of thermopots. As a result: I am already buying the third teapot of this model, the first has been at home for 2 years, the second and third were bought as a gift to relatives. All three work great, heat water, boil, no complaints. I have not tried the timer boiling function, I do not know why it is, and whether it works.

Advantages: Great thing. Do not compare with ordinary teapots. Helper for a large family. Spacious. I have been using it for two years, no complaints.

Disadvantages: Not identified.

Comment: If some buyers' hands grow out of their ass, then the lids fall off, and the water is not poured, and the temperature is not the same, and the spray is flying, and in general if you give the fool glass horseradish he will break it and cut it !!!!!!!!!

Advantages: Design, display, backlight, temperature modes, temperature maintenance, min. noise when heating, 3.5 liters

Disadvantages: The buttons are tight, I thought it would pass over time, but no.

Comment: An excellent device, a little expensive. Boiling water is constantly available and you don't have to bother with teapots to drink coffee, well, or tea, this is especially pleasing in the morning. There is little noise from it, unlike email. kettles, pleasant lighting, display, which can be useful for young mothers. I cleaned it off a couple of times, since we have water from the tap (piiiiiiiii) well, you know. Generally happy with the purchase as an elephant.
