Wow! Talk about a First World wonder. I’m not criticizing, only expressing my amazement at something I never even conceived of, much less gave thought to needing.

My only question, though, is if the pot is too heavy to move to the stove after filling in the sink, how does it work out when it’s full of hot food?

I am paranoid. Lived in older apartments when I was a kid, always told to run the water before using it to get the lead out. I still do the same nowadays. Run the water for 60 seconds before using it for cooking or drinking. So for me I'd end up running over to the sink with 3-4 full pots of water to dump out.

Also what happens when you leave water sitting in the pipes unused for 3-4 days at a time? Sediment and stagnant water sitting in those pipes can't be good for the taste of the food.

Luckily I have a small kitchen and the sink is 10' from the stove and I am young enough to walk from one side to the other. They should put in a drain at the stove though so that you can drain the water.

What problem does having one of these solve?

I'd post a pic of my automatic pot filler, but she doesn't like her picture posted on the internet...



The sad truth is it would be a picture of me, or the delivery driver.

They're not good for the taste of food and the water does go stagnant in them and gets funky when they're not used for days on end. Waste of time in a home kitchen.

And "stale" is the nice word for it. Many plumbing fixtures are made of brass. Water sitting in the faucet, even over night, can leach measurable amounts of metals including lead. There was a study about this a few years back.

This is why when you turn on the tap in the morning to fill the coffee pot, you should always let it run for a few seconds before using the water.

Kinda hard to do that with a pot filler.
