A manual stop facility puts you in total control, while the removable, adjustable and dishwasher-safe drip tray means clean, mess-free drinks to accommodate your preferred size of cup.

Breville HotCup with Variable Dispense is rated 3.5 out of 5 by 41.
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Incredible energy efficiency I love it, it has a huge water tank but only boils what’s needed. I compared usage from my kettle & this on my smart meter and the difference is astonishing. It’s very quiet and being able to adjust the cup size makes it way worth going for this model over the first one that much better. I bought the first one as a gift for my mum and this is by far the better option. The only downside is if making multiple hot drinks it needs boiling per cup so a standard kettle would be quicker in the case but not on energy usage. For the price this is a really decent it of kit and well worth the money.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from VKT111 v pleased but a suggestion Works very well but the nozzle is a bit close to the body and a dribble of water escapes past the cup quite often. This could easily be eliminated with a minor design change.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from To be avoided For the first few weeks the product worked perfectly then even on full scale I only get about half a cup, FAQ offers no useful advice at all

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Button not working Only been using this 6months ( 2 person household) and the button just stopped working... after checking fuse and letting it “cool” down .. nothing. I’m assuming a spare part / fix will be as cheap a buying a new new kettle. As the one cup is a sealed unit it probably isn’t the best to prise open and fit back together.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Utter garbage Bought it in December 2021 to replace our old dispenser, the unit now only dispenses 200ml of water. Do not buy this item.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from One Cup Kettle with faulty adjustment dispenser, I bought this kettle SK8 3GQ ( to replace old one cup kettle which worked great ), this new one will now ONLY FILL THE CUP HALF FULL ,The adjustment doesn't work, very disappointed , it's only 8 weeks old. ( will have to use the old one cup kettle )

Rated 5 out of 5 by from I was sceptical... But pleasantly surprised! Really impressed with this, as originally I thought it was going to be one of those things that keeps the water hot constantly and costs a fortune to run. Quite the contrary, it boils enough for a quick cuppa in a matter of seconds. The only negative I will highlight is the fine tuning for cup size on the dial is nonsense. There's a difference between small and large, certainly. But from 50% to 100% there is no difference in the volume of water that goes in to the cup. Still, really impressed and love the speed in which you can a good hot cuppa!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great item! This is such a great dispenser. I use it many times a day. I don't fill with a jug, as i'd probably end up pouring it all over the place, so I use a strong ergonomical 1.5 litre plastic water bottle that I refill from the cold tap. I then just fill it when it gets to the bottom, with no fear of overfilling. It holds more water than the previous model, so I fill it less often. I found the dial very useful for making instant gravy in a small jug, once I'd mastered the right amount! My only negative with this dispenser, is that the drip tray is just that, for drips, so if I ever forget to put the mug underneath, I have a lot of water to clear up. So to avoid this, I usually put a clean mug in place as soon as I've made the last one.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Design fault halves output My last dispenser gave 5 years good service before the switch failed . The VKT111 lasted a month before the filler tube came loose halving output and producing nasty noisy airlocked underheated drinks . Headsup to BREVILLEYOUOWEME and at least 6 others reporting this potential safety fault over 2 years . Breville chose to ignore this presumably to save money

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Faulty pouring is frustrating I bought this a couple of years ago and it stop working on the pouring selection after a couple of weeks. I used one in my cousins house and it was filling her extra large tea cups no problem, on the highest pour setting and our mug holds the same amount. It is disappointing and so frustrating that I got a faulty one and I just could not find the receipt to return it to Argos. We have to constantly wait for 2 boils for a mug of tea on the highest setting since 2 weeks after we bought it.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from Terrible Bought this to replace an Aldi version which had finally failed after many years use. Only bought as no other similar brands were available. It's absolutely terrible. Never get the same amount of water twice and the settings bear no relation to the amount dispensed. Get less water from Max setting than from middle setting. This is going back to Argos. Should have known better than to buy breville as all previous purchases of this brand has had something wrong with it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Efficient and stylish With energy prices through the roof there has never been a better time for the HotCup. I love the design with older attempts at this product looking clunky and cheap, but this looks sleek and modern in my new kitchen. It's crazy how quick and efficient it really is, and really easy to use while still giving plenty in the way of volume options. Feels like a real game changer in my house!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from So easy to use Absolute game changer for a kettle. Makes making a drink so much easier. The unit itself is strong and sturdy whilst being very modern in look. No more standing around waiting for kettle to boil. Simply press the button and wait for it to do itself. Great for those busy mornings I get when no time to wait about. Made even better when have lots of people round and it’s a quick and easy swoop to make the drinks. Great product!

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Nice design. Heats quickly. Have been using this water heater now for a couple of weeks. Took a few cleanses to get rid of the plastic taste but all good after about 5 heat throughs. Lovely sleek design. Only niggle is that the nozzle could be a few mm more away from the body of the heater when placing a cup under. I’m able to fill my small flask for tea under it, as the bottom tray easily clips off magnetically… very good heater. Would recommend.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great! I really like the design of this it’s nice and compact fits anywhere in the kitchen and it looks really nice. It is easy to set up and use. You have to set how much water you want for ur cup, the water does not come straight away u have to wait for a minute or two before it fills your cup. It is great for one cup at a time but f you want to have a cuppa with someone then u have to keep waiting in between cups.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from This might get us through the winter We got an opportunity to try this as part of a promotion and as a family of heavy tea drinkers we were more than keen. Boiling the kettle costs a lot in energy and pounds these days and we found this not only always had hot water ready, but was more energy efficient! The only thing we would say to watch out for is to clean it regularly if you live in a hard water area like ours!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great energy saver This Breville HotCup is very well designed, it boils a cup of water in seconds and even allows you to select from 11 volume settings. I have used this to make cuppa soups as well as tea and coffee and it works wonders! It also helps me personally due to a health condition which leaves me struggling to lift heavy items at times. Its very good quality and I highly recommend.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great alternative to a kettle This a great alternative to a kettle. We as a household aren't big tea or coffee drinkers so we end up wasting a lot of water and energy using a kettle. This hot shot product is ideal as it only heats what you need. It's easy to use- fill the chamber between the min and max lines. Then select the size of mug or cup and press the button. We have already got rid of our kettle!

Rated 3 out of 5 by from No different to a kettle... I bought this item thinking it would save me time, be easier than boiling a kettle, but in all honesty, as much as it looks great and is a great piece of kit, just a plain old kettle does just as good a job! I really wanted this to be a great addition to my kitchen but sadly, just filling the kettle with the water I need and boiling (probably in the same amount of time), works just as good.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Really Impressed Myself and my partner are really impressed with this hotcup, no waiting around for the water to boil in the kettle, just pop your mug and tea bag under, ale left the setting and go. There are different settings in terms of the size of your mug, my only Criticism is that it could cater to larger mugs, I have some quite big mugs, and have to use the cup setting twice to fill

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great cost saving water heater Really easy to use, you select the amount of water you need and press the button - out comes a measured amount of water. It only heats the amounts of water needed and is great at helping to save energy and thus money. The water tank is of a great size and the water is at boiling point. It also looks attractive on the counter top - a great alternative to a kettle.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from The best hot water gadget for kitchen Quick to boil easy too use should have extra big water tank as filling up more as it’s so easy to make hot drink
Date published: 2020-05-26
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Perfect for everyday I drink one cup of coffee in the morning and this water boiler takes no time to dispense the hot water. As it boils one cup of water at a time it does not waste extra electricity like a kettle. If your cup is big or small the water dispense level could be adjusted so that you can carry on doing house chores, while your cup gets filled with hot water.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great Dispenser but flawed with an obvious fault Worked great for about 2 days then started to dispense less than the 300ml. Found the large pipe in the kettle had a grommet type seal at the bottom that had slipped up the pipe. Kept pushing down daily and have now put a cable tie around the pipe to hold it down - lets see if this does the trick - shame as it's a good and attractive bit of kit

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Amazing The hot water dispenser is a league of its own. Variable dispense meaning you can dispense as much or as little hot water as required. With the price of energy it saves a fortune on continuously boiling a kettle. Heats in about 1 minute piping hot water. What did I do without this. Cup of coffee / tea super quick

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great for those who work from home! As a home worker, I drink copious amounts of tea. This is a fab gadget to quickly make cups of tea (or coffee) without wasting water. I like to think this will help with playing a small part in reducing the amount of energy we use! I should add that it also looks pretty slick on our worktop - it's a nice design!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from It's great I got the breville hotcup to try and think it's brilliant. I love that you can change for the size for the different cup size and like the fact it only boils the water for the cup size your using meaning your using less electricity. It's really easy to set up and use and I definitely recommend it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Really good We had a instant boil type kettle before and found that it just wasn’t hot enough for the tea, so reverted back to a normal kettle. This one the water is actually boiling so I find it really good. Takes some getting used to where on the dial to chose for your cups but once you knots it’s great.
