Gone wrong after a month
The water variation no longer works, even on highest setting you only get half a cup, so have to press more than once to get a cupful

Hmmm
This is the second one we’ve bought after the first one developed a fault where the lid wouldn’t close down and the button to open stopped working. It looks like this is a design fault as the second one has this fault also. Going to go back to kettles or another manufacturer. Cheaply made product

Great time and energy saver!
I purchased this Hot Cup dispenser as I am fed up with my kettles (all brands) seeming to give up on me after a short period. I love that this is easy to use, just heats up the amount of water need for my cuppa and is easy to clean. I love that I can put my mug under the dispenser, and walk away from it, it pours just the right amount out and there is no waste. Stop button really handy too as quite a few other models didn't seem to have this function. Great addition to my kitchen!

Great time saver!
The Breville Hot Cup water dispenser is ideal for a busy home! In one easy press you have boiling water in approximately 40 seconds, saving time and electricity! I’ve discovered that I use boiling water for much more than I thought! It’s perfect to boil water for tea, coffee, instant hot chocolate, soups, noodles and just for general cooking on the hob! There is a dial on the top so that you can choose how much water you need to fill the specific cup/jug you are using! The water tank illuminates when in use so there is a definite distinction between idling and operation. It’s easy to remove the tank from the base and fill up with little effort! The dispenser is stylish and classy looking and fits perfectly in any kitchen! It’s a wonderful time saver and allows me to boil just what I need effortlessly!!

It worked fine originally, but now it won't turn off automatically, which is a feature that I really want.

Not suitable for my purposes
I bought this because i have MS and it was becoming increasingly dangerous for me to lift and pour boiling water from an ordinary kettle. However, the Hotcup is not suitable for me: first the reservoir us very heavy and i cannot lift it if it is more than a quarter full of water. Second, you cannot fit anything other than a cup or mug under the spout eg. a teapot won't fit.

Still going after years of use
Our Breville HotCup is still working perfectly after years of being used in a busy household. The cup size selection knob is now showing the white plastic rather than the silver plus the button you press to open top for filling does release the top but the spring has stopped working. Other than those two minor things it looks like new and works brilliantly..

Stylish, efficient
In todays climate any little thing helps. And this is brilliant. It only heats up and dispenses the amount to make one cup of tea, and dispenses it out like a hot water boiler, or a coffee machine. It's very convenient. You have to set it up with cup sizes, which wasn't to difficult, but I can imagine an older person needing help setting it up. Either way ita brilliant, easy to use and hopefully save some money on bills.

Time saver
I'm honestly so pleased with this Hot Cup Machine.
It's SO much quicker at boiling than my brand new kettle.
Really simple to use and all you need to do is push a button and everything is done for you... No wasted water, always the perfect cup amount.
My only fault is that it does splash a little but if you have your cup in the right place it's all good.
Really do recommend this

Poor design and quality
1.Water never fully reaches boiling point.
2 Dispenser varies the quantity dispensed depending on how full it is.The adjustment know is inaccurate and very "fiddly" to set the correct amount of water dispensed.
3 Hinge spring broke when only just 2 years old, making it very difficult to open the lid - can only be done by forcing the lid open with a sharpish implement.

Hot water dispenser
I have purchased many of these appliances over the years as we are both disabled and unable to lift a kettle.However the latest one purchased in Dec 2021,so 18 months old and now out of warranty has stopped opening the lid to put water in. So totally not fit for purpose. Breville say out of warranty but offer us 20 percent off RRP. Not good enough.

failure to turn off and therefore keeps dispensing
After a while it has developed a very dangerous fault. As soon as it has dispensed the required amount of boiling water, it automatically starts the next boiling cycle. Even pressing the "Stop" button has no effect. You have to turn it off at the mains socket & wait for it to cool down before you can safely turn to power back on

Fantastic Buy
Bought this for disabled father in law. Absolutely brilliant. Carer keeps main compartment topped up. (Although not difficult and he can do) But he makes a hot drink with the touch of the button. Amount of hot water was calculated and now just presses button. Fantastic, couldn't be easier. Gonna get one for me now.

Works well!
This hot cup dispenser is smart looking. The 250 ml hot cup is dispensed in less than 60 seconds and it illuminates whilst working to a blue colour. I liked the fact that it's much faster than a kettle, thus saving electricity and time to wait. It also saves water in comparison with a traditional kettle. Highly recommended.

Breville HOTCUP ♥♥♥
This was the second version I purchased...
I bought the red one prior and saw this on offer knowing how good they are I couldn't resist a fab bargain
Easy to fill with bottled water no need to lift the machine to fill or to pour hot water!
A real game changer for people who have problems lifting kettles

Big disappointment
Initially this was Almost a dream but although you could change the amount of water dispensed it was obvious that you had to select this before your previous cup finished being dispensed or it would then give the same amount again as it boiled and dispensed the amount sucked up into the boiler. The previous one cup I had used didn't have this function so I had hoped this would be an improvement. The other version had the drip tray as integral to the unit whereas this one it was separate and just hooked on. Sadly this was easily to knock off course if working close to it. The cord was very short so it had to be sited right under the electric socket. After the guarantee expired so did the unit. The on switch failed rendering the unit useless. Single person household who works full time so unit wasn't over used. I don't consider this value for money. Filling the tank was heavy holding it under a tap so I used a jug to top it up. All in all a great idea but not so well engineered. Looked great.

Great
I got this for my Dad, as he's the only one in his house who has hot drinks. Boiling the kettle always boiling too much, or not enough water. This HotCup is great though, as he can change what size cup he wants, and gets the right amount of water each time. I would definitely recommend this!!

Fab kettle alternative
This is great to use instead of a kettle. There are multiple options for the amount of water you need depending on cup size . Easy to fill . Love when it’s working it glows an amazing blue . It’s very quick to boil a cup size amount compared to a kettle.
A fab addition to the kitchen .

Had doubts but great
Didn’t think this was going to be as good as it is. Easy to fill up, boils the right amount of water required to the setting you have put it on. Simple and easy to use, looks lovely and neat on the kitchen side. Very impressed. Easy to remove drip tray, quick and simple. Would recommend

The breville onecup is the best.
I bought this onecup from breville as its the best for my needs as i can not lift a kettle.
My only request is whether a filter could be fitted as i have hard water and have to use a teastrainer to catch the limescale that collects in the onecup dispenser.
Many Thanks
Eileen James
