Rating of the best boilers for 2020

Despite the development of technical progress, boilers have not yet lost their relevance. On the contrary, over time, they have become more perfect and are a necessary thing in the house of any person.

If earlier heating devices worked only from a stationary outlet and were used most often on business trips or trips, now the boiler can work from a car cigarette lighter, a computer and even a portable charger. For example, having arrived in nature, the device can be connected to the cigarette lighter in the car and enjoy hot tea or coffee. In addition, the device is ideal for families with small children in the country, especially in the presence of interruptions with hot water. Modern devices are capable of heating up to 15 liters of water in a short time, which is enough for a bath or washing things, not to mention diluting baby food.

Today, there are a huge number of heating devices on the market, we will find out how to choose the device that suits you.

How to choose a boiler?

A boiler is a device that is designed to quickly boil water. The design of the device is extremely simple: a plastic handle to which an insulated wire is attached, as well as the heating element itself. Most often, the heating element is made of stainless steel, which does not affect the taste and quality characteristics of water, and the device itself operates from the mains, both from a regular outlet and from a car cigarette lighter or USB port.

The coil of the boiler must have at least three turns. The distance between the turns is as large as possible. Such models are more powerful, respectively, and the water boils faster.

A high-quality device should have marks for the minimum and maximum immersion of the boiler in water. And the handle should have a pinch, so that the device does not fall into the liquid. The rules for using the device must be observed. When you turn it on, the spiral must be in the water, to avoid overheating and subsequent explosion. Do not touch the water when it is heated by a boiler, due to the lack of a grounding contact in the device plug.

So how do you choose the right device for you?

1. Decide for what purposes the device will be used.
   All heating devices can be divided into 3 types:

   Submersible is a device consisting of a heating element and a handle, which is placed in a container with water and heats it to the desired temperature. This is the simplest and most budget-friendly version of the boiler, which is convenient to take with you on trips, since it takes up little space, but at the same time has good performance and is able to heat up to 7 liters of water at a time. Such a device can work both from a conventional charger and from a car cigarette lighter or USB port.

   Accumulative type - such a boiler looks like an electric kettle, it can be of different volumes from 0.5 liters to 15 liters. Has increased productivity and a large volume of heated liquid.

   A mug boiler is the most convenient option for use in urban environments. Boiler - the mug works from a car cigarette lighter or USB - port, it is convenient to brew coffee or tea in it, as well as instant lunches. Its advantage is the fact that it takes up little space, does not require additional capacity, and besides, this device is able to maintain a given temperature for a long time.

   So, a submersible boiler comes in handy on a trip, as it takes up little space. A storage device is good to use in an office or a country house, as an alternative to a kettle or mini water heater, especially in a family with small children. A mug boiler is ideal for people who spend a lot of time on the road or are in traffic jams a lot.

2. Technical characteristics of the device.
   The main thing that you should pay attention to when choosing a device is its power and the volume of water heated at a time. The higher the power of the device, the faster it will cope with heating. The best option is considered to be a performance of 1000 W and a water volume of 1.5 liters.
3. Manufacturer country.
   Almost all devices on the market are manufactured in Russia or China. Their principle of operation is the same, there are no differences in quality either. The leading manufacturers of this class of devices are KEND, Starwood (Starwood), Gatrotop (Gatrotop), IRIT (Irit).
4. The appearance of the device.
   Immersion boilers look identical - differences can only be in color and dimensions. The appearance has little effect on the functionality of the device, so when choosing, you should proceed from your personal preferences.
5. Price and place of purchase.
   The cost of boilers is not high. So, submersible appliances cost an average of 150 rubles, accumulative ones from 3500 rubles, and boilers-mugs from 600 rubles. You can buy them both in any hardware store (online or offline) and on the Aliexpress website.
