Summary: AVOID AVOID AVOID
Comment: What can I say? I bought this to save money on hotel travel with my family. The first time I used it, it lasted 4 days and burned out. Two out of the last three times I used it I GOT AN ELECTRIC SHOCK! The plug on my unit had copper cabling coming out of both sides (the thin sides, not the flat sides.) So when you unplug it from a sideways wall outlet, you are likely to touch both copper cables and ZAP ZAP ZAP !! BIG SURPRISE !!!
STAY AWAY !!! DO NOT BUY !!! COULD NOT BE WORSE !!!

Summary: Simple and well-performing product - BUT READ DIRECTIONS!
Comment: The name of the product is pretty self explanatory.
Its PORTABLE.
Its IMMERSIBLE.
And it HEATS.
So why would anyone not think this works well?
You can't heat soup, or lasagna, or hot chocolate or even coffee or tea if you follow the directions to the letter. You can heat WATER. PERIOD.
Anything else and you're likely going to be disappointed that the unit dies a premature death.
That immersible thing is tricky too, because the cord is short.
You can't plug it in before you immerse it.
You can't remove it while it is still plugged in.
You can't let it boil off the water leaving it above water level (meaning you CANNOT leave this unattended).
Follow these three simple rules, and I think you'll be more than pleased with yours.
One that I had lasted over a year...until-distracted-I forgot about it.
Came back to find a half full cup of water and a dead heater.
My bad.
Learn from my mistakes.
Enjoy hot beverages anywhere on the go!
AND FOR ANYONE WONDERING...
ACEHARDWAREOUTLET folks are GREAT.
Fast shipping, quick email responses, good customer service.

Summary: piece of garbage worked for 30 sec and that's it
Comment: I can't believe I actually wasted my money on such a product. It doesn't even worth it to reship it to the seller. I don't know what to write about it. It just didn't work long enough to write something about it. Don't wast your money, this is my advice.

Summary: Comforts of home
Comment: I bought this immersion heater to take with me into the hospital. I was having radioactive iodine treatment for thyroid cancer. I knew I'd be able-bodied, but bored, under orders to drink lots of fluids, and seeing very little of the nurses, as they do these treatments in special isolation rooms. It was such a good thing to be able to have a cup of hot herbal tea, or some cocoa, whenever I wanted, just as I would at home. The immersion heater worked perfectly. The key is to remember that you must never plug the heater in until the coil is immersed in your cup, and never remove the coil from your cup until you unplug it. The heater boils water so fast, you really do need to watch it- a watched pot may never boil, but a forgotten immersion heater would boil your cup dry very quickly. I had to put my heater away in a box with the books I read in the hospital, as they scanned my stuff with a Geiger counter when my treatment was over, and it read "hot". Everything will be safe to use again after a month, and I will be glad to have the heater to use when we travel. My post-treatment scan gave me a clean bill of health, so I will be enjoying this heater for a long time to come!
