Actually, I mainly drink greens so the cheapie one is sufficient for my
main needs at work even if it doesn't reach a perfect boil (which it
claims it does). I do have access to a "Hot Shot" which produces very
hot boiling water for Pu-Erh or an Oolong if I need, but this was more
just for on my desk to be small and easy.
