I purchased a Bajaj Majesty 3L instant water heater almost 2 years ago and it has been running smoothly so far. I have also looked for reviews of instant water heaters of other brands and no one seems to be complaining much about instant water heaters. So why I bought Bajaj Majesty? - Horrific logic - I have a Bajaj Pulsar which I absolutely love, so went for Bajaj. My guess it that, any brand is as good when it comes to instant water heaters.
My aunt has USHA instant and that's also good(3+ years) from experience. For those who think instant water heater is really instant, here is the shocker. its NOT! You have to switch on the water heater and open the tap very little. So getting 1 bucket of reasonably hot water will take 5-10 mins. You can’t take a shower for sure even though some reviews have mentioned otherwise.
My current house owner has fitted a Bajaj Majesty 15L storage water heater. Not sure when it was bought but there was some problem. We had a tough time trying to get the service guys. Also they said the coils are gone and need to be replaced and we agreed, costed 1500+. It worked fine for 1 day and we had the same problem again. Then another 10 days to have a service person look at it. To our surprise, we accidentally found out that the replaced coils(for which we were charged) were not new. Again he changed something, it worked for 1 day and stopped working again. I have called them a week back but still no response.
So I will recommend Bajaj water heaters only for USE AND THROW purpose only. NOT for SERVICE AND KEEP like our good old televisions. Still trying to decide on a good storage water heater to buy and substitute for this defunct one.
