Advantages: Energy efficient, very fast and filtered water Disadvantages: Maybe the price, water cools down quite fast, but it could be me!!
The Tefal QuickCup is somethig quite like no other. It offers what you want from a kettle, but in the sort of time you want - 3 seconds! It's very handy if you're a little short on time or fancy a quick brew. Its clever system is designed to measure out a 200ml cup of hot water at the touch of a button, and poured in a very short space of time. Its small and so doesnt take up much space on the kitchen work surface, and has a very appealing design ... ...with a kettle. However, the Tefal Quickcup only holds 1 litre, as opposed to the normal 1.5litre kettles found in most homes. This is, of course, only minor. But it does mean that if it runs out of water half way through your cup, you've got to stop and start and watch how much it fills your cup 2nd time round so you dont drown your tea bag!
I'm on my 2nd Tefal Quickcup, as the first one had a couple of problems with it. The first was that it leaked ...

Advantages: Fast, economical to use Disadvantages: Noisey, doesn't boil properly.
The Tefal Quickcup is not a kettle. It has been advertised as a fast boiling kettle but the fact is that it never boils. This need not be a problem unless you are 'dyed in the wool' tea brewer who has to have the water boiling and the pot warmed in order to enjoy your cuppa. If this is you, then this water heater is not for you.
The water is just off the boil when it spurts out of the nozzle on the top and just the right amount to fill a mug is ... ...you want to use.
The appliance is very modern looking with its stainless steel unit and black base but at £49, I would have thought that the 'jug' which holds the water and the 'Claris' water filter, would have been a little more substantial. It looks fine but feels quite flimsy as it is made of fairly thin plastic. The concave water container on the back is made of very thin plastic and when full of water this doesn't feel very stable to carry ...

Advantages: Warm water in 3 secs, energy saving Disadvantages: Doesn't boil water
The Tefal Quick Cup is a type of kettle, but instead of boiling a whole kettle of water to make a single cup of tea, the Quick Cup heats only the amount of water required, therefore saving energy. Tefal claims that a cup of hot water takes only 3 seconds and I was sceptical at first, but its true.
The machine itself is mainly black with a stainless steel control panel on top, and has 2300w of power. The machine is made from high quality plastic, ... ...If you look on the Tefal website, nowhere does it says anything about boiling the water, it only says it provides hot water. For me the temperature is ideal, but if you like it really warm, you won't be happy.
Similarly the cold water is really room temperature, the machine doesn't do anything to chill the water, but if you use the filter, it will be room temperature filtered water.
In the home the noise may be fine, but in an office, it can be ...

Advantages: Time & energy saving Disadvantages: Seems to be faults with this product, a little noisy
The Tefal Quick Cup is basically a water dispenser from which you can get filtered hot or ambient water in just 3 seconds with the touch of a button. It consists of a clear(ish) water tank with a black front and a brushed stainless steel top (control panel) with the water outlet underneath. The idea of this appliance is to save money and time as only the amount of water required for one cup is heated at a time, and is done so really quickly. It is ... ...mention of it on the Tefal website. That would make the product even better. I would definitely recommend the Quick Cup. Yes, there seems to be a bit of a fault somewhere with the product, but when you get one that works, its a great time and energy saving invention. Touch wood this one carries on working!!! It might be worth mentioning that the first two were delivered, so maybe they had been damaged in transit? 4 stars given as I am discounting ...

Advantages: Energy efficient, very quick & convenient Disadvantages: Buy costly filters regularly, not as hot as a kettle, noisy!
Bought this kettle for my husband who not only enjoys regular cups of coffee but is a sucker for a new product!
The first thing that struck me was the price, not the cheapest thing around and definitely more than I had expected.
Setting up was easy although was also disappointed to find that no extra filters were supplied which considering you have to chnage it every 5/6 weeks I would have expected one extra before the expense of buying new filters ... ...cup of tea on demand is ofcourse great and a definite advantage when you have several to make and can't be bothered to wait for a full kettle.
The fact it is energy efficient and therefore environmentally friendly is also a fantastic selling point.
Although for some reason, I am sure it never seems to make a cup of tea aswell as my freshly boiled trusty kettle did. The water does not appear to be as hot and the tea bag doesn't infuse as quickly ...
