No. We replaced our regular water heater with one and ended up having to take it out. There was not enough water pressure to keep it turned on. It was especially troublesome when trying to draw a bath or take a shower and it went off in the middle leaving only cold water. Not to mention that if your tub or shower is several rooms over from the w/h, there will be cold water in the line until the hot water reaches it. It was a huge expense to install and even more expensive to take out and replace with a standard water heater. Not to mention extremely frustrating!

I have a tank-less hot water heater powered by propane. I will never go back to heating a tank and holding hot water.
The issues with tank-less? You need water pressure, duh.
I had to install a large diameter shower head due to flow requirements. One needs to match flow rate for your plumbing with the proper capacity heater.
Most tank-less models chosen are too large for the application. The unit does not flow enough water to meet the pressure switch range in some applications. Smaller capacity unit required, or put in a booster pump for more pressure.
I have no problem with the large diameter shower head and unlimited hot water.........
