Overall Verdict
The Avalon A8 countertop bottleless water cooler dispenser and the Euhomy bottom-loading dispenser are two different classes of machine. There’s the obvious size difference with the Euhomy being a full-sized free standing dispenser.
Some other differences are that the Euhomy has ambient temperature in addition to hot and cold, and uses buttons, not paddle levers, for dispensing.
Both machines are matched by the convenience of a filter for the Avalon A8 and a bottom-loading cabinet for the Euhomy. However, the Avalon is only really suited to a small home kitchen or especially an apartment with no elevator.
The Euhomy is more suited for a house of an office, but it is not without its quirks. The Euhomy has a hot water high of only 189 ℉ and the cold water a low of 55‒57 ℉. The Avalon A8 is calibrated to the more standard 198 ℉ and 52‒54 ℉.
Even still, the Avalon A8 had faster heating times and the flow rate was much better than the Euhomy—31 ml / sec compared to only 28 ml / sec.
One advantage of the Euhomy is that you can stand a large tumbler on the drip tray whereas the Avalon A8 doesn’t handle large tumblers well. The other advantage is the large cold water capacity (at a higher temperature) of 5.1 L per hour compared to Avalon’s 2.7 L.
