When I first used this kettle I was initially quite pleased. The water was hot enough to make a nice cuppa, but not too long after I found that the machine didn't heat the water enough to make a decent hot cup. Also, the filters are not easy to locate. One would think that Tefal would have supplied filters to the same stores where the machines are being sold. The sales person just told me to get them online.
Overall I wouldn't recommend this unit at all. It is very expensive and simply doesn't work very well.

Bought Tefal quickcup just before Christmas from Costco. Worked perfectly for 3 weeks then stopped producing hot water. Took it back and exchanged it. It appears that Costco have had a lot of returns for the same reason. If it keeps working it's a great device but I have no faith in it and would not recommend it to anyone. I excpect it to stop working again after reading the reviews. Why to Tefal keep selling it given it's obvious reliability problems? DONT BUY ONE

Ours broke after 18 months. Tefal customer services response was that they had fulfilled their obligations as it had worked for 12 months.

Having paid £60 for a kettle I'd expect it to work for a damn site longer than that. A disgusting attitude - I shall never buy Tefal again.

great for a quick cup but it does seem to leave a scummy layer on top of the cup.

Product stopped working after about 6 months (only seems to produce cold water)

Just purchased Breville Hot Cup much better.

Like many others who have written here, we used our Tefal quick cup only 5 times and it suddenly stopped producing hot water. It looks like the heating element just gave out.

We also had another Tefal product (Actifry) which actually blew up after a month of use so I'm starting to conclude that their products are very badly made.

I too have had the very same problem with the tefal quick cup with mould festering in the corners and around and on the claris water filter, all I need now a a couple of gold fish to make it more authentic.. but seriously in my opinion, it is a problem either with the design of the tefal quick cup or with the filter system.. and cleaning the reservoire and or changing the fiiter does not fix this problem as a it soon after some time comes back

I bought this kettle at Easter. It drips water after each use so I have to constantly wipe the kitchen top. The water never was very hot but now after just a few months of use, the water is actually only tepid, therefore I have to heat the tea in the microwave for 30 seconds each time.
I paid £55 for this in tesco. It is definitely not worth that!
I have just emailed Tefal customer service and will wait to see what happens there. I'm hoping that the customer service will be good to ...

Weve owned this Tefal Quick Cup for 13months and it broke down totally which means it is a very expensive kettle i would have got more use out of a £5 kettle considering my last electric kettle lasted ten years for less than a tenner,the quickbrew makes a warm cup of tea and is useless if you want hot water for things like a pot noodle etc.sorry but i took it back to comet today and all they said was to write to tefal.i dont think we will buy another of these quickbrew machines if you only ...

I'm suprised to read the bad ratings on the Tefal Quickcup because mine is just perfect and I've had it for months.
The water is most definately hot enough, the product is well made and, despite one review i've read here, the plastic container isn't thin and easily breakable it's in fact rather sturdy and easily removed to fill up. As far as the noise is concerned it's not actually much different from a normal kettle so don't let that put you off.
I think people have exaggerated a little here ...

Nice product, saves electricity - especially since my wife thinks kettles ought to be full before switching them on.
Some say it isn't hot enough for tea, I disagree strongly, I drink a range of teas including herbals and all have been perfect.
I now find that if I make a drink for my wife I don't feel obliged to have one myself because I haven't boiled a lot of water.
The water is filtered so I use the cold function too.
Unlike some products I have bought, the spare filters are easy to get hold ...

We thought the Tefal Quick Cup was a good idea! I wouldn't recommend it , living in a hard water area I think we have spent more on cleaning it & new filters than we've saved in electricity. The water is never hot enough for my husband so he uses the microwave to heat more.

We were in the market for a new kettle and thought that this tefal quick cup would be a great idea. Worked fine for the first few weeks and then got louder and the water temperature dropped. We were aware that the quick cup did not boil the water, however I measured the water temperature at just a shaving over 70 degrees celsius... just about ok for a quick coffee but useless for tea, gravy or cuppa soups. I run a twin gang Gagggia espresso machine and so I used Gaggia descaler to thoroughly des ...

Bought this Tefal Quick Cup from Argos to replace our kettle. The idea is to save energy by only heating the exact amount of water required for a cup. We only use it for hot drinks. It is great because of its ease of use and the filter with gets rid of the scum on the surface of a cup of tea/coffee. Granted it is on the noisy side, but then what do you expect for £30????

We have had no problems with it at all. A great product

I brought my Tefal Quick Cup from Tesco and thought it was so good I recommended it to my parents and they brought one to. I had mine for about a week and the water stopped coming out hot so took it back and got a replacement.

About a week after my parents brought theirs they had trouble with the water coming out cold so took it back and got a refund, I am just waiting for my replacement to break as well.

The machine also makes a lot of noise, a lot more than a normal kettle.

It is a good ide ...

The first tefal quick cup we had stopped producing hot water after about 3 weeks so we took it back and got a replacement. This one has also stopped heating the water after about the same amount of time......water is also not hot enough for a decent cup of tea. For a quick coffe its ok - (when it heats)! Taking it back today for a full refund.

Liked the fact instant cuppa with a tefal quick cup...quite noisy (and I'm hard of hearing)....quite pricey (just gone up @ Tesco from £41-52...the one I bought from there lasted 2 weeks, water cold! Will probably buy another one because of convenience...may yet get a good one!!
