Tefal Quick Cup Boils Water Faster Than You Can Read This Abnormally Long Headline That We Are Stretching Out OK Done

Does the ability to heat a cup of water in 3 seconds interest you? Then take a look at this Teal quick Cup, which produces hot (we’re not sure if it’s near boiling) water by spinning the cold water you pour in around the spiral heating element. Not only is it fast, it’s supposedly more efficient than a standard kettle or hot water heater because it only needs to be “on” for those three-ish seconds. Useful for your instant cups of tea or filling up a bathtub the dumb way. [Quickcup via Giz Mag via Boing Boing Gadgets]

    We’ve got one at work. The water comes out at 90degC which is fine if you like weak tea but near useless for a strong cuppa. And yes, it really is that fast.

    First one I got lasted all of 20 seconds before it blew a lot of steam and the fuses. After that it only passed room temperature water. A call to TEFAL and they said take it back to the retailer. The replacement unit has been going well… yes its noisy, splashes a bit but it sure beats having to wait for the kettle to boil.
