    For me it’s the sign of ultimate home luxury. You can spend 1.5k to move your kettle into your faucet, the ultimate thing that is as unnecessary as it is cool, as cost-ineffective as it is weirdly efficient.

      It’s definitely a luxury if you’re doing it on its own. If you’re remodeling a kitchen or building a new house, it’s more like a rounding error.

      I live in a house with 4 other tea drinkers; our instant hot water tap has paid for itself 20x over lol

            I’m glad you like it, but a kettle is about $20, I can’t imagine that’s anything near “paying for itself.” I love my tea, but I’m a broke bitch, those words mean different things.

        Oh, I’m a bit crazy about my teas, half of the time I drink greens, and the boiling water is too hot for it
