Keeps water hot at different temperatures--great for a variety of uses.

Whether hosting a business meeting, catering an event, or simply upping the convenience quota of everyday life, Panasonic's electric thermal hot pot makes it easy to quickly and safely boil and dispense hot water--perfect for anything from tea, instant coffee, and hot cocoa to instant soup, noodles, baby food, and more. The exceptionally versatile unit can be used throughout the day for various applications and at different temperature settings. The pot's fold-down carrying handle makes it effortless to transport from the sink for filling to the buffet table or counter when entertaining guests or working in the kitchen.

Choose between heating water to a rolling boil (212 degrees F) or keeping it hot at one of the following Keep Warm temperature settings: 208, 190, 180, or 140 degrees F. The unit can also be set to start boiling up to six hours later thanks to its energy-saving timer.

The thoughtfully designed hot pot gracefully dispenses hot water from its built-in spout with a gentle press of the button. Once the mug, bowl, or other vessel has been properly filled, simply release the button to stop the flow of water. For safety, the hot pot provides a locking lid to prevent spills if it tips over, a locking dispenser that prevents unintended dispensing, automatic shut-off if water levels get too low, a cool-touch body, and a breakaway magnetic power cord.

Easy-to-read water-level gauge.

Other highlights include a non-stick coated interior, an easy-to-read water-level gauge, an LED control panel with handy indicator lights, a low-water-level warning, and protection against overheating for peace of mind, as well as de-chlorination mode, which boils water for a longer amount of time to help reduce the taste and amount of chlorine for better tasting beverages (great for tap water high in chlorination).

Awarded the Good Housekeeping Seal of Approval, Panasonic's electric hot pots carry a one-year limited manufacturer's warranty, plus an additional one-year limited warranty (two years total) from Good Housekeeping--it's more than just a Seal of endorsement.

Choose from three useful sizes--2.3 quarts (NC-EH22PC), 3.2 quarts (NC-EH30PC), and 4.2 quarts (NC-EH40PC).

Kitchen Tip: Thermal Pots save energy because they use trapped heat to brew.

Safety Features:

• No spilling with locking lid
• Dispenser Lock button guards against unintended dispensing
• Breakaway magnetic power cord releases under pressure
• Automatic shut-off if water levels get too low

Reviews of Panasonic Nc Eh22pc 2 3 Qt Electric Thermo Hot Pot

Great thermo pot
Rating by : Dancin,

My relatives have an equivalent Zojirushi model. The only difference is this one only has a 6 hour delay whereas the Zojirushi has a longer delay setting. It actually seems like the Panasonic insulates and holds the heat in better than the Zojirushi as it doesn't seem to reheat as often. I'm sure it would save a few pennies in power costs if I could delay it a little longer while I'm away at work all day but it isn't worth almost double the price to get that. That's the only reason for the 4 stars instead of 5. I actually like and prefer the nonstick interior and unless you've got hard water, you don't have to clean it as often as they suggest. It's over a month for mine being used every day and it doesn't look any different than when I bought it. I figure I'll clean it with lemon juice every other month.

Note that you don't have to buy the special cleaning solution. Make your own citric acid with a half cup of lemon juice concentrate mixed in with the water and then run it through the cleaning cycle. If you use fresh lemons make sure you get the pulp out.

Update 3 years later in 2012: Still working great. I clean it about twice a year as our water is already softened and we filter it before pouring into the boiler. One time after not running a cleaning cycle for over a year it stopped working in that it couldn't tell when to stop heating and overheated. I ran it through a cleaning cycle and it was fine after that. I suspect the thermometer had some calcium or other deposits built up on it.

Great all-day alternative for the electric kettles
Rating by : Michael Sung,

For Valentine's Day, my fiancee wanted something to get her up and running with tea early in the morning. After looking at a number of other electric kettles and pots, the Panasonic/Zojirushi style pots caught my eye and seemed like an interesting alternative to the teapot styles offered elsewhere.

After a few days of use, this has turned out to deliver on all promises made. It holds about 4-5 healthy cups of hot water. The alternatives for boiling, super-crazy-hot, green tea setting, and baby-milk setting (all digital) are more than you'll find on all but the most fully featured carafe-style pots.

At the end of the day, however, distinction should be made between the teapots and this. The teapots boast the ability to boil water in under 5 minutes. This model takes around 20 minutes to get to a boil: not much better than a stove-top model. However, for an energy efficient and convenient way to have hot water on hand all day, it beats the pants off other solutions.

Good product
Rating by : C. Huang,

Nice and simple pot. Has six hour timer, however, would like to have a longer delay for the day use. Also, when using the timer, it always resets the final temperature to 190 degree. Would be nice if it can "remember" the previous temperature setting. The inner container is coated with floury charcoal, not teflon coating that any other brands offer. It claims to bring out the fine taste of water. To me, at least it looks better than the grey teflon coating. Another feature missing is it does not come with the audible alarm.

Extra spec that I would like to know before ordering:
Power: 700 Watt
Temp setting: 140, 180, 190, 208
No audible alarm for any events.

After all, I am happy with the pot for the price and the build quality. Not sure if I would pay extra $30+ for the fancy features Zojirushi brand offers.
