Panasonic NC-EH40PC Water Boiler 4.2-Quart with Temperature Selector
Whether hosting a business meeting, catering an event, or simply upping the convenience quota of everyday life, Panasonic's electric thermal hot pot makes it easy to quickly and safely boil and dispense hot water--perfect for anything from tea, instant coffee, and hot cocoa to instant soup, noodles, baby food, and more. The exceptionally versatile unit can be used throughout the day for various applications and at different temperature settings. The pot's fold-down carrying handle makes it effortless to transport from the sink for filling to the buffet table or counter when entertaining guests or working in the kitchen.
Choose between heating water to a rolling boil (212 degrees F) or keeping it hot at one of the following Keep Warm temperature settings: 208, 190, 180, or 140 degrees F. The unit can also be set to start boiling up to six hours later thanks to its energy-saving timer.
The thoughtfully designed hot pot gracefully dispenses hot water from its built-in spout with a gentle press of the button. Once the mug, bowl, or other vessel has been properly filled, simply release the button to stop the flow of water. For safety, the hot pot provides a locking lid to prevent spills if it tips over, a locking dispenser that prevents unintended dispensing, automatic shut-off if water levels get too low, a cool-touch body, and a breakaway magnetic power cord.
Other highlights include a non-stick coated interior, an easy-to-read water-level gauge, an LED control panel with handy indicator lights, a low-water-level warning, and protection against overheating for peace of mind, as well as de-chlorination mode, which boils water for a longer amount of time to help reduce the taste and amount of chlorine for better tasting beverages (great for tap water high in chlorination).
Awarded the Good Housekeeping Seal of Approval, Panasonic's electric hot pots carry a one-year limited manufacturer's warranty, plus an additional one-year limited warranty (two years total) from Good Housekeeping--it's more than just a Seal of endorsement.
Choose from three useful sizes--2.3 quarts (NC-EH22PC), 3.2 quarts (NC-EH30PC), and 4.2 quarts (NC-EH40PC).
Kitchen Tip: Thermal Pots save energy because they use trapped heat to brew.
