Overall Verdict
The Igloo is a small countertop water cooler dispenser. The Euhomy WC-C is a large freestanding and bottom-loading dispenser. It has excellent build quality compared to the poorer quality and shoddy bodywork of the Igloo.
Both machines use buttons and dispense additional ambient water. The buttons of the Igloo are of decidedly lower quality, but the key differences are in performance.
The Euhomy only heats hot water to 189 ℉ and the Igloo to 185 ℉, whereas the average standard is 198 ℉. The difference between the machines is not that much, but the Igloo heating time is a whole minute faster and it produces 6.2 L per hour compared to 5 L.
For cold water, the larger Euhomy is understandably better. It does around 172 fl. oz. per hour or 5.1 L compared to the Igloo’s 78 fl. oz. or 2.3 L. However, the Euhomy temperature is 55‒57 ℉ while that of the Igloo is the standard 52‒54 ℉.
If you prefer a countertop water cooler dispenser, the Igloo is reasonable for its low price. As for the Euhomy, there are better choices among other bottom-loading dispensers, unless you prefer its differing temperature ranges for hot and cold water.
