Electric Dispensing Pot

Cool Tools reviewed the Zojirushi rice cooker, but I'm surprised you haven't listed Zojirushi's other essential kitchen appliance: the Electric Dispensing Pot.

Like the rice cooker, it's an appliance that EVERY Japanese household has. Its function is simple: it makes and dispenses hot water at just below boiling, as much or as little as you want. Perfect for a cup of tea or a cup of noodles.

We picked up the US version when we moved back from Japan, and it's performed flawlessly for over a decade. Lots of nice little touches -- Steve Jobs stole the "MagSafe" power cord from the Zojirushi -- it makes it easy to move the pot to the tap to fill it up.
