Tankless only shines if you have a large household where you need an endless supply of hot water. For everything else, they're going to operate the same or worse than a tank heater and also come with more maintenance.

I figure by the time I get tankless in probably another 10 years the tech will likely be more stable so it won't have nearly as many problems as they do now which is already less than they had before.
