Great water machine love the 3 settings!
I bought this water machine November 2021. 2.5 years later I need to replace it. This water machine has been great! We use it constantly, the hot water is perfect for tea/coffee etc. The cold water is very cold and ready to drink. I especially love the room temperature water feature, I use an automatic waterer for my dogs, their waterer sits next to the water machine and I easily refill 3-4 times daily. Our water here is very hard and tastes terrible. I have not had to replace the dog’s waterer since I bought this machine. I love drinking water, but buying in gallons is a lot of waste and takes up so much room. Ever since buying this water machine I definitely have been drinking more. This machine is very easy to clean and being a bottom loader it is great. I feel this is a great value. Getting ready to buy another, highly recommend this one.

Excellent for the price
Hot– Heats up quick. From room temperature to scalding in about 10 minutes. A ‘how hot?’ temperature dial would be preferred. [Perhaps for the next-level-up version, rather than this: the basic model?] As default-set, I need to wait 10 minutes for my tea to cool enough to drink. Using a kettle, I do not let it get that hot: do not want to burn my tea-leaves.Cold– Yeah, it is cold. But, I don't like cold water. So I never turn on Cold, unless I am expecting guests who might prefer that. [Which I then shut everything off again when they've gone.] Perhaps it is a bit too cold? Perhaps a ‘how cold?’ dial would be pertinent, for the next-level-up version? Again, I am not expecting perfection/exceptional at the cost of ‘cheapest available.’Temperature Conflict– All the internal tanks are interconnected within the fountain. [They all drain into Cold: but perhaps that's just the slope of my floor dripping it that direction, when powered off?] So, if Hot is left on long enough (3+ hours), the heat starts seeping over into Cool and Cold. Hot left always-on requires Cold to then be always-on too: lest you want your Cool to be warm, and your Cold to be tepid. [Leave it to engineers to expect end-users to turn (and leave) everything on, as the only way for it to work ‘properly.’] So then I must question whether that means Hot and Cold are constantly fighting over temperature, the battleground being within Cool, wasting how much electricity?Noise– I keep the entire thing Powered Off most of the time, preferring my drinking water at room temperature. I have the fountain wired to a switch, turn it on only when the water is running low, to prevent hearing the pump run every time I get a drink. It is not terribly loud, but unnecessary to hear. As it stands, given the volume of water the internal tanks store, I only need to power on the pump every third day or so for my drinking water. [Takes 90-120 seconds to refill.] If left on, there's always a high-pitched ‘eeeee’ noise. I suspect that would be the pump keeping itself primed. In a busy house or office nobody would hear it, but here alone in the woods, where one can hear everything, the sound grates on the nerves.Potential Problem– This fountain keeps pumping nothing, does not auto-shut-off, when the water-bottle runs out. The longest I left it ‘huffing air’ was 20 minutes, just to see if it would stop, as I didn't want to burn out the motor. So, what happens if you get a drink on the way out the door in the morning and thereby it runs out of water? Will it keep pumping nothing all day? I suspect that would kill it.Overall– Excellent. Looks classy. Works well for what it was designed. Five Stars. Would buy again, recommend to others.

Great product that dispenses hot/cold water on demand at low cost
Had some water dispenser which stopped working. Absolutely needed a bottom load motorized one. Bought this based on reviews. Product is really great. It easily sets up. And you get hot and cold water on demand. I pair with a Tapo outlet and monthly bill for the constant heating was really cheap - $2-$3 for all the heating it was doing per month. Avg usage is 0.5kWh per day.But you get hot water immediately. My older unit had a button to press and then wait ~1m for water to heat up. This is no waiting. You get hot water asap. Been a few months and so far so good. Their thermos insulation seems to be keeping hot water hot for easily 18-24h without consuming another small electric round to heat it again. that's where the 0.5kWh/day comes in. 15kWh/month is fantastic.Because it is bottom load, no need to flip and spill water etc. The unit goes over the mouth of the 5g water bottle easily and snugly.Overall great buy

Great addition
I spent a while researching water dispensers and narrowed it down to a couple different ones. I ultimately went with this one and am glad I did.It was very easy to setup and within a few minutes, I had it running. I like having the option to switch off the hot or cold water compressor.There are a few things I'd like to see improved, but don't affect the use at all. The cold water is cold, but I'd prefer a little colder. The night light doesn't really work very well. I am usually filling 30+ oz Yeti & Milwaukee bottles so they might block the light more. Lastly, the door for the water jugs can be a pain to open. A finger recess or small handle would really help out.
