Out of a dozen or so water coolers I looked at, I chose one for my home that did not have hot water feature, because they allow bacteria to grown in the warm water.  I bought one that is Energy Star approved to help save on energy costs.  The large stainless steel basin is removable so I can easily sanitize it in the dishwasher periodically.  The high flow faucets fill a coffee or cooking pot in just a few seconds. It is completely silent to run since I dislike annoying electronic hums and rattles. The white with black trim is very attractive, and I am very pleased with the unit.
