Can it handle boiling water? Water is temperature restrictions?

I don't think it could handle boiling water. It doesn't mention water temperature in the enclosed instructions one way or the other. But it's specifically meant for outdoor use on a hose bib, so that would obviously exclude boiling water. I could imagine that warm water would be fine, but it's an all plastic construction, I would be very surprised if this would withstand actually boiling water.

I could find no mention of water temperature restrictions on the box or in the instructions. Since the unit is all plastic, I would guess that very hot or boiling water would damage it or at least limit its lifespan. I use the meters on outside hoses and drip irrigation, so I have not run any hot water through them.

This is a teapot for holding tea, not for boiling water. You'll still need a kettle for that.The handle doesn't get hot when using it for serving.

I haven't used it for water only, but...the directions say that it does. You can custom set to heat to 212 degree (which is the temp. fo boiled water) with a max. 10 minute brew time. I suspect that would definately boil the water for you. You just need to select that option. It will keep it hot for you also, for up to 4 hours I think (I do not currently have the directions in front of me). It is like that for the tea anyway. You will not regret purchasing this. I it is one of the best purchases I have made in a long time.

Yes. It's very thick sturdy glass. You can put it in the oven so boiling liquids should not be a problem.

I was able to use them in boiling water (212+ degrees F) to monitor boiling beer and they survived well. They were submersed past the metal shell and including some of the plastic. It seemed to work pretty well in those extreme conditions. Not too sure about maximum depth

To be honest I'm not sure, but I don't see why not. You can always use the "old fashion" method of boiling water as well.

Not sure what kind of cooking you want to know about? But have used it for boiling water and just food. As long as you can adjust the heat it works great. Doesn't take as long as a regular pot.

Yes it will boil water. You may use it as skillet but the surface of it is not flat.

Yes--I probably wouldn't put boiling water in it, but we used warmed water in it a couple of times when we needed/wanted hotter water.

I don't see why it wouldn't. It's not going to melt unless the water is beyond boiling.

I've used very warm water and it is fine. It is medium to heavy vinyl so it could probably handle pretty hot water. Don't know about boiling water.

I'm sure you could pour boiling water into it with no harm, but if you are using it for sous vide cooking it doesn't matter. The temperatures used for sous vide are far lower.

I have one of these,i don't know how heat resistant it is. But I styled it using boiling water and had no issues

It's ok to keep hot water but I don't think you can use the bottle to boil water like on the stove.

The temperature of boiling water appears to be no problem but the moisture might be ... I'd be careful not to submerge the probe connection to the cable or the cable itself in water.

Yes but I would not pour boiling water in it. The pot is made of thin glass
