Customer reviews
The quick and easy way to boil water.
I bought an electric kettle on Amazon a while back, a 1.7 liter size, that didn't work out for us. We have a small kitchen and it was too wide to fit the storage spot where we were planning to keep it when it not in use. It went back to Amazon. So, I went hunting for a one-liter kettle last week that would fit. Amazon had a handful of options, but I thought this stainless steel version would probably be our best bet. (They also have a glass-side version of this kettle. It's pretty, but I didn't think glass was a good idea for us.) We're very pleased with it. This kettle literally fits the spot, which is about 6" wide, 8" deep and 8+ inches tall, and it has everything we were looking for: It is fairly sturdy, sits on an included base unit that plugs into a nearby outlet, has a simple on/off switch that you push down to start heating the kettle, turns itself off with an audible click when it comes to a full, rolling boil, and the kettle handle stays cool, so it's easy to pour into a coffee or tea cup. Looks nice, too! It takes about two minutes to boil 10 ounces of water for the coffee cup I make tea in, the same amount of time my microwave takes, a bit more than two minutes to heat half a liter, but it is slower than boiling a liter of water on our induction cooktop. This kettle takes 4-1/2 minutes to boil a full liter of water, where our (Frigidaire Gallery) induction range does the job in 3-1/2 minutes. The thing about the boiling water in a saucepan is it's not as easy to pour . . . and every stovetop kettle I looked is bigger than that 1.7 liter kettle I sent back to Amazon. So, Yay! Nice kettle. I think it's time for a nice cup of tea. PROS: * Looks sharp, boils water. * Simple to operate. * Viewing window lets you see how much water you've put in it. * A push button and hinge on the top of the handle pops the top of the kettle open so you can fill it. * Sits on a power base that stays put when you pick the kettle up to fill or pour it. (Older kettles you had to unplug the cord.) *The kettle handle stays cool, as does the bottom of the kettle if you want to set it down at the breakfast table. * Smaller footprint than other kettles I looked at. So, if you are tight on kitchen storage space, this might be exactly what you're looking for. * $25. CONS: * None I could come up with.

Heats up quick!
This thing is amazing! Yes, it's small and doesn't heat up a ton of water at once, but it's fast! We quit using the Keurig and switch to instant blond espresso because it just tastes better, and my last electric kettle just quit working one morning, after years of sitting on the counter and only being used a couple times a month. That kettle was bigger, and took 5+ minutes to heat up even half a pot. This one, a full pot (which is about the same as half of my old kettle) is boiling within 2 minutes! I put the water in, turn it on and by the time I have the cup out, sugar and instant coffee in, it's ready. It's really that quick! And since it's small, it doesn't take up much space on my counter. It's perfect!

Easy to use, easy to love
Woo-hoo! An excellent product! It has excellent safety features that are extremely important to me: you have to manually turn it on (not just plug it in the outlet), it has clear markings for the amount of water including the maximum amount you should use, it boils the water very quickly and then immediately turns itself off. So there's no chance of boiling dry and starting a fire even if you get distracted and forget you turned it on. I routinely dump out leftover water and let the pot air dry to prevent using stagnant water or possibly having mold growth. I've been using it for several weeks and have zero complaints!

Favorite kitchen utensil
This has quickly become one of my favorite kitchen appliances. It's quick and easy to make a pot of boiling water for tea, or hot chocolate. I use this all the time and it's done boiling in less than 8 minutes and my water stays hot for a long after.
