Default Tankless Water Heaters. Will GPS be the next technology blamed?

Has anyone ditched their hot water tank(s) in their house and replaced
it/them with a tankless water heater?

Just curious as our two 50 gallon hot water tanks are 15 years and
at/near their useful life. Replacing them does not make sense with the
advances in tankless water heater technology. Many of these tankless
water heaters are also eligible for a $300 tax credit.

I am looking at the Bosch 2400E (natural gas) which can supply 2 showers
simultaneously, or so the specs say.

Any tankless water heater users out there?


As an English major, I haven't a clue as to how these devices supply a
steady stream of hot water. Please explain.


Maybe this will help:

Yeah, I know how they work. But I don't see how they supply a steady
stream of hot water, especially for an active household with several
appliances running and someone in the tub or shower.
