Rating: - Great product, buy this item!
Great Product! I drink lots of Chinese green tea, make my coffee in a French press, and cook items daily (like old fashioned oatmeal) that need boiling water. This kettle will heat water fast than my microwave oven or my electric stove top. When I'm frantically getting ready for work at 5:30 am every minute is critical. This unit will heat 1 1/2 quarts of cold tap water to boiling in 5 minutes or less. Faster of course if I'm heating just 2 cups of cold water to boiling for my French press. With the auto shut-off I can add water, turn it on, return after my morning toiletries and have the boiling ... Read More
Rating: - Works well, plastic appearance
Don't be fooled by the excellent pictures. This kettle works great, but on your counter it looks like what it is - plastic. It's great to have the detachable base. Great design.
Rating: - Can't get rid of bad taste.
I bought this kettle to replace one I had worn out and I was so excited, I thought I had found a great kettle. But There is some flaky bitter stuff I can't clean out of the bottom of the kettle. Nothing will remove it. I regret buying this. Also the bottom gives you a selection as to which side the cord comes out. I only got one choice, since one side was broken.
Rating: - Good Investment
The kettle is not a bad deal. After living in England for four years, I grew used to drinking tea. The kettle is a bit slower than those in the UK, however, this is most likely due to different voltages. Great if you need to save on time and a must for the tea or coffee drinker. The one thing I did not care for is the flimsy filter and the smell of plastic. It takes a while for the smell to go away, just boil it a few times.
Rating: - Poor Design
the kettle automatically shuts off before the water boils - I found that putting a spoon between the front of the kettle and the heating platform allows the kettle to get to the proper temperature. This makes the kettle's performance acceptable, although it is not what I would call a quality product
