 A nice electric kettle July 19, 2008
I had this kettle for about a month and have been very satisfied with it. I use it at work, and have it right on my desk. No smells, it's quick, takes up very little space, and is fairly atractive.
I gave it four, rather than five, stars because it's a little larger than I'd like, I would have perfered all stainless steel, and the cord is about 2" too short to reach a power strip on the floor when placed on a typical desk.
 Fast boiling and energy efficient July 19, 2008
My house does not have natural gas and the electric stove is astonishingly wasteful of energy. This kettle is a lot faster and more energy efficient in comparison. It is also well designed and convenient to use. Another big plus is the auto-shut-off feature. No longer do I have to rush to the whistle.
Fast, Easy, with piece of mind July 16, 2008
Let's keep it simple...
The Pros:
- Auto on/off...No more worrying or having anxiety attacks about whether or not you left the kettle on. When the water boils, the unit automatically turns itself off.
- Clear, see-through water indicator/measure. Nice and easy to see and measure how much water is in the kettle.
- Dead easy, no thought process required to use. Just press the button and in LITERALLY SECONDS you'll start hearing the heating element heat the water.
- My Wife uses it to boil water for pasta! SOOOoooo much faster then waiting for it to boil in the pot!
- Easily detaches/attaches to the base. No special twisting or unscrewing or having wires attached. Just lift it up or put it down, very little fiddling required.
- Nicely ergonomic shape. Handle fits nicely in hand and the position of it makes it easy to hold and pour.
The Cons:
- None. If you pressed me and threatened to force me to watch reruns of Roseanne, then MAYBE I'd say a longer power cord would be nice. But that's not even a big deal since only the base needs to be by the power outlet, the kettle can go anywhere you need it to.
My Wife is forever rolling her eyes whenever I get yet another UPS package with some new "gadget" in it. But when I told her what this one gadget was and that she'd no longer have to worry about leaving the stove on for the kettle (not to mention the bionic speed it boils water), well the eyes weren't rolling anymore!...She's got enough going on in the day, this one little bit of piece-of-mind turned out to be a real blessing!
Great product for a great price! July 14, 2008
i bought this kettle for my new apartment, my significant other and i drink a lot of tea and this kettle is great for getting the water ready in a short amount of time. As soon as the water gets hot enough it shuts off and you can take the kettle anywhere with the hot water inside. its great for guests or just to take to the dinner table. Concerning some of the negative reviews : yes the cord is a bit short but you dont need to move the base from the counter so its not an issue, and as for the plastic smell or taste its non existent, i had no such thing. great product a must buy for tea drinkers

This is our second water kettle... our first one was alright, but was as durable. I really like this water kettle, its sturdy and holds about 3 travel mugs of water. It takes only 60 sec to boil one to 2 cups of water. Its great! We use it mutiple times a day!
Love it. I like the fact the heater element is in the middle of the kettle. I like the view of water on both sides and that is automatically shuts off. The water gets extremely hot when you let it boil completely, not drinkable. Love that fact too!
