Virgin Pure Hot Water Dispenser
Discussion
My thermopot is on its way out so am looking for new kettle. I like to have instantly boiled water rather than wait for a kettle every time so have been looking at hot water dispensers. Had a look at the virgin pure water dispenser. Just wondered if anyone here has any experience of it & if it's any good. cheers.
I’ve looked at various boiling taps and this week logged into a demo from the QUOOKER showroom.
Yes, it is more expensive than available alternatives but I have heard some horror stories (from plumbers and sparkles) about Fohen and Franke so decided to avoid the hassle and go with QUOOKER.
Searching on line you can get a better price than the advertised price on their site.
I opted for a Flex Pro 3 for just over £1k.
It’s hopefully being installed in a few weeks along with a kitchen refurb.
their soap dispenser was a kick in the nuts ... no way am I spending circa £250 on that!

A £30 tap and £20 kettle will achieve the same results.
The same as a £2 bottle of soap will work the same as a fancy dispenser.

£1k is expensive for a tap, but add it onto a full kitchen refurb and it it's definitely justifiable if you want it.
Everyone knows you can but a cheap chrome tap for £30, and a plastic kettle for £8 - it's not what he's asking is it?
I could we could go through anyone's home and find cheaper versions of what they have.
I agree with him. I want a Quooker and I'd happily pay £1k.
I'd like their soap dispenser too but I wouldn't pay £250.

Whilst my investment was significantly less than £1K and I squealed at spending that on a "tap", I'd now not ever think of returning to a tap n kettle! Each to his own, but the convenience of instant boiling water for a cuppa and cooking is fabulous - once experienced you really don't know why you didn't do it years ago A £30 tap and £20 kettle will achieve the same results.

It’s a big sum of money but in an open plan kitchen I’m looking to minimise clutter and ease , so this hits the spot.
£1k is a lot for a tap but I’m OK with it as it’s a luxury item.
Shrouds don’t have pockets...

Once you’ve had one you wouldn’t choose to go without.
If you’re going to buy a boiling tap, Quooker is the only choice. I have a kitchen studio and had problems with other brands and the Quooker after sales service is second to none - they have their own engineers, who carry spare parts and the £99.00 installation deal is great. In addition, it’s the only one that boils over 100 deg.C (boils the water under pressure) expensive but so worth it

I used to too, Zip are also a good product but very very ugly.Cheers guys. I'll look into a tap instead. Using a thermopot means I'm used to having boiled water there ready all the time which is why i didn't want the kettle route.
Anyone tried Qettle?
Installation will be no problem as I'll be doing it myself, thinking i should've taken the quooker rep up on his offer of being an approved installer a couple of months ago so I could've got a cheap one 😂

At the moment they are knocking off the £99 installation charge.Anyone tried Qettle?

I got them (the manufactor) to match a price I had seen online.
They were wanting circa £1,300 for the model I wanted, but showed them the online price I was getting and it's circa £1,050...
(my plumber / sparky are installing so the £99 saving for them fitting is redundant to me)
