Product Description: This handy electric kettle from Bodum is designed to have a permanent place at the kitchen counter using a minimum of space. Made of a heat-reinforced polypropylene plastic and a stainless steel heating element, it is an indispensable and practical everyday tool for cooking - and certainly when a fast boil is needed. The Bodum water kettle will automatically cut off power after the water boils a short while. No more dry boils!
Amazon.com Review: The miniature Ibis is sized to boil water for one. Its modern Scandinavian design makes it an attractive office companion for boiling water to make tea or coffee. And, with its reasonable price, this kettle travels well to college to make instant noodles in a dorm room. Made of heavyweight polypropelene plastic with a copper-sheathed, nickel-plated heating element, the Mini Ibis holds a maximum of 27 fluid ounces of water (about 3-1/2-cups). It must be filled to a minimum of 7 fluid ounces--just enough to cover the heating element--to operate. Plugging the unit in and flipping up the switch below the kettle's handle turns on the power. The heating process is rapid and quiet: it takes only 4 minutes to boil 27 ounces of water and the sound is almost imperceptible. For safety purposes, the Ibis automatically shuts off after boiling and has a locking lid to prevent spilling and a frosted handle for a secure grip. --Cristina Vaamonde

I found this product very useful. It takes much less
time to boil than even my microwave and easy to clean.
Rating: - I Love My Bodum!
I purchased this water kettle because as a tea drinker, I was tired of using the hotel room coffee pot to make a cup of funny tasting tea when traveling. This model boils water super fast, and although originally purchased for travel, I use it every day.
Rating: - bodum miniibus
I stopped using a microwave and the mini ibus from Bodum is just what I needed. It heats water quickly and shuts off automatically so that I don't have to wait for it to finish.
