ABOUT

Back in 1995 I was a kitchen designer in the exclusive Manhattan A+D Building. We installed a new display just as you walked in our showroom that highlighted a large cooktop as well as something entirely new – a pot filler. No one had ever seen one. Now, pot fillers were not new items in commercial kitchens, but in residential kitchens they were – and in time I started incorporating one into every design that featured a cooktop.

     Clients would walk in, see the pot filler, inquire as to what it was, and listen as I “educated” them about wonders of filling your pot where you cook. Clients thought it was brilliant! I even felt brilliant.

Then one day, I met Mrs. Weismann.

Then one day, I met Mrs. Weismann.

Mrs. Weismann walked in to our showroom, saw our new display, and listened intently to my thoughts. I finished my presentation by bringing her attention to the fixture above the cooktop.

“What is that?” she asked.

“It’s a pot filler!” I said. “This cabinetry is a must if you plan to have a cooktop, and if you have a cooktop, you must have a pot filler in your new kitchen.” She was silent for a moment, staring at the fixture, and then turned to me and said:

“That’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever seen.”

Now I was silent. How could this fixture be a dumb idea? More importantly – how could anyone not want one? She then “educated” me, by saying, “Pot fillers may be great in your mind, young man, but to me they only get you half the way there. Drain the thing once you’ve filled it, and then maybe I’ll want one.”

And she was right.

By simply draining the vessel while it is still on the cooktop surface, injury is eliminated and convenience, flexibility, and new productivity is introduced.

There is a lot more to this story, but the evolution of today’s residential cooking has yielded home cooking appliances with professional capabilities. With these added capabilities comes increased potential for serious injury if not used correctly. 

BoilSafe changes all that.

The Boilsafe option is an innovation whose time is long overdue. Its simplicity, accessibility, and immense potential speak for themselves. With the correct representation, I know that potential will be fully realized and transform the time-honored tradition of household cooking.

And by the way – I did design and sell Mrs. Weismann her kitchen, and I remember it had a very large cooktop.

But guess what it didn’t have?
