How long is the power cord ? Must one use distilled water?

yes you must use distilled water to avoid leaving deposits in the sprayer. power cord is quite long- I haven't measured exactly, but at least 4 feet

The power cord is 10 feet long. ( I find it is adequate). You must use distilled water so the minerals in tap water don't build up and clog. All questions and a video may be found at www.vapamore.com

The cord is reasonable long, can't tell you much as I used once and it wouldn't work again

About 4ft, I believe, but I have not measured it because it is long enough for most setups. Do not use an extension cord as the unit draws too many amps and the cords/plugs get too hot. I had to create a cord using 12/3 heavy electric cable with a heavy plug on one end and an outlet box on the other end for safe operation. I bought the cable and ends at the local home improvement store. The cable is sold by the foot, so you can make the length you need.

I have demonstrated the PowerWheel using regular tap water (with variable flow and pressure). If you are using this "off grid" then I'd agree with Sasha that a few meters would be good.Yes, it is made of high quality plastic. Not sure of the exact type but it is made in northwestern Washington state.

Yes, the power cord is about 6 feet long. I stopped using it though, would burn the shisha too quickly.

I read not to use distilled water. The minerals in your tap water help the "water low" sensor realize when to turn off the unit...

The cord running from the spa to the large power supply is about 8 feet 2 in. The power supply itself is about 6 in. long, then the cord that runs from it to the plug is about 16 in.

It actually need distilled. The chemicals in tap water will kill it quickly. Mine is now 10 inches tall. and eats flys and has grown two smaller plants as well. The distilled water is not expensive, a gallon lasts for a month or more. Water from the bottom in a saucer.

I gave the coffee maker to someone for a gift so I do not know how long the cord is.

5 maybe 6 feet long I believe. The hose stretches far tho so all you have to do is leave the unit next to a outlet anyways or plug it into a extension cord of you really need more length.

It takes about 10-15mins to heat up. You can use it thereafter up until you run out of water. It is highly recommended to use distilled water. Personally, I find the distilled water does not come to highest heat, therefore steam is not optimum. I seem to get a lot more water spitting out than steam using distilled water. Although distilled supposedly extends the life of the eating element and/or reservoir.

10 inches. You have to buy an outdoor extension cord. That is standard unless you buy a cordless model--and then you will have to keep buying gasoline for it or getting less power with a rechargeable battery-powered one (and, eventually, replace the battery).

About 3 inches. I jpined both hot and cold to a T-piece then that to an adjust valve to controll the pressure. If you turn it down too low it will turn on then decrease in pressure. I found a good pressure works great and my 4 yo daughter loves it and i know she now uses less water w/o supervision. Be sure to be specific that you want an US power cord, they sent me a Euro cord. Then after contacting them they sent a plug adapter. Whatever it works. Takes batteries too

The cord is about a foot long. You will need a heavy duty extension cord. The unit is powerful and does a great job.

Very short power cord may be 2 feet. It can be plugged. It did not last but one season and quit working so I threw it otherwise I could have measure cord length.

i use Purified water. I don't recommend using Tap water. Haven't tried distilled.

I used non-distilled water. It didn't work either way. The water dripped through the bottom of the machine, all over my dresser (and the electronic components inside) rendering it useless (many of the reviewers had the same problem...defective). Save your money. :-/
