Provides instant hot water. Very versatile in the kitchen. We love it!

It works—it heats water, what more can I say?

These devices initially seemed like an extravagance to us. The first one we had was part of a new house package we bought. Through our experience we have come to depend on these Instant Hot Water Heaters.We are now on our third or fourth unit, the last couple being Insinkerators. While the heaters work very well and reliably, the failure point seems to be the flow control valve which eventually starts to leak after10 or 12 years.Without the leaking valve issue, I would have rated it at a 5 Star.

First off—we are not plumbers, so we watched videos on the installation process and this unit was replacing an older model. It seemed pretty easy. It was NOT. After unplugging the old model, we found that we could not reuse the brass nut and ferrule that attaches the copper tube to the water source. The instruction manual says (on page 10), that one is provided. We called the AnswerLine, waited on hold for a while, and finally were told it doesn’t come with it, but because it says one is provided, they would send us one and would take 10 business days to get it. We didn’t want to wait, so a trip to the hardware store and thankfully, our local Ace Hardware had one left.Then we had a problem with the under-counter decking. The HOT150 comes with a plastic spacer that would not fit under the counter and the rubber gasket was too soft and would get bunched up. So we had to get a chisel and chip out part of the wood decking under the granite countertop in order to get into it better. (Our granite installer had put the sink/faucet and old hot shot in a few years ago and we could see that he had chiseled out a section for the old gasket. Also note, since granite is so heavy, they have to have a thicker decking to hold it up. There is still room but it might be very tight, depending on how close it is to the edge.) Well, the big spacer was still too big, so we just put the rubber washer and the old gasket over it, pushed it up so it was sealed, fit the mounting plate on, then screwed in the long nut. It worked! No leaks! We were happy.It’s a great product! But I wanted to be sure to share a couple issues that caught us by surprise.

Where do I start. First off, this product is not sold with all of the parts you need, which will simply disable a large number of otherwise capable homeowners from installing it themselves when they get it. Yes, you can purchase those extra parts but it might take you several trips to the hardware store by which time you might as well just just called a plumber. (And depending on where you are a plumber is going to gouge you for anywhere from $500 to $1000 for this installation, even though it's probably a hour of their time max.)That's what happened to me, only the plumber couldn't get it running and had to call Insinkerator hotline, which told him that the tap itself was likely faulty. They then sent me a replacement faucet (a week later), and this also seems to be faulty according to the hotline person. They then wanted to send me another one, and I finally said "no," and had them send there own plumber out here to install/fix their seemingly terrible product. Sidenote, I also learned from the plumber that the plumbing products sold on Amazon and at big box stores like Home Depot are often of a lesser quality than the same products made for and sold at plumbing supply stores. The former often have cheaper plastic parts whereas later have more robust hardware--so, unsurprisingly, you get what you pay for.Moral of story is unless you're very handy, I'd bite the bullet and have a plumber buy and install this type of product for you, eliminating many of the sketchy variables with this thing. Good luck

Over the last 35+ years, we've had these in 3 houses now. We use it several times a day, every day and they're very reliable. We typically get 5-6 years of service out of them before they finally conk out, but after looking at other models and their respective reviews, I always go back to Insinkerator's units. This last swap out was a piece of cake, since it was for an identical model.
