Customer reviews
USED TO Love this Kettle like a Hobbit Loves Second Breakfast.
MY FIRST REVIEW: uhh... seriously this is one of the cutest, awesome working, easy kettles i've ever had, hands down my absolute fav of all time... and I'm nearly 50:) I don't have anything really technical to say about it. its a qualtiy product. use is intuitive. I could easily keep this one for the rest of my days. and barring any unforseen weird malfunction, I would buy another one to replace...just a great all around product. I would definitely recommend as a gift. there is a wide color assortment too. FINAL: I PURCHASED THIS KETTLE July 22, 2017. TODAY IT STOPPED WORKING (2/08/2020). I am very sad - i loved this tea kettle. Truth is, This has been a work horse in our kitchen. Daily morning and often evening use as well. I'm not sure how long i expected this countertop appliance to work but it was longer than this. I have to say, that I still enjoyed using it everyday, the aesthetics bring a smile to my face still. On closer inspection the base has a small melted blemish, (I'LL POST PICS) but it's not near the connectors so i don't know if that's the cause or what. But now I have to make another purchase, and I'm not sure what to do. I've tried connecting with kitchenaid via their live chat but it isn't working today, so i sent them an email and have to wait a few days to hear back. In that time I will have already decided what to do. In fact I will most likely purchase one more and give this little dynamo the benefit of the doubt. I may also try just using the kettle on the stove...it is stainless steel after all. I still highly recommend this product. We are high use users, and this would probably have lasted another year or so with avg./normal wear.

It gives me hot water and it does it fast
It has a nice look And it shuts off automatically whether you wanted to or not It does not leak I use filtered water Heat the water Quite quickly I won't say instantly Definitely faster than on the stove top So I am pleased with it's performance It has a spot that you could hang tea if you wanted to in it And it also has a filter for the spout It seems to be made of good material. I haven't had rust yet How high to fill it Marker inside You don't have to feel the side. It's actually so easy I wish I took a picture and maybe do so but I have some time Washing it isn't as easy but I've never run across the teapot that's easy to wash.. Lol. But my hand is small enough to get in there and move around I try not to let water sit in it when I'm not using it. With any teapot. . It's just not good to do that with metal My tea tastes wonderful It's hot Though I wish it would heat for just a little bit longer. There is no button to change it to heat for a little bit longer that is the 1 downside. I wait a few seconds and press the button down again It is pricey compared to what that you would put on the stove Repeat for the quality That's why you pay more

Finally a Kettle That Looks as Good as It Works
I hate shopping for kettles. Most of them either look cheap or overly bulky. This one is neither. The design is modern and clean, simple in the best way. The brushed stainless steel gives it a durable, high-quality feel, which I really appreciate since so many kettles now are mostly plastic. This one feels solid and built to last. It heats quickly, pours well, and just does what it’s supposed to do without any fuss. Bonus: it looks great sitting on the counter. We liked it enough that we ended up buying the matching toaster too. If you care about function and how your kitchen looks, this is a great choice.

I really like it!
So far, I am very happy with this Electric Kettle. Very good quality, it looks beautiful. I like that it has a filter inside, it seems that the water comes out cleaner than the one I had before. It is also easy to clean, I just get the kettle filled with water and I put a little bit of white vinegar, make it boil and leave soaking. When the kettle is not that hot, I just wash it with soap. The filter is super easy to remove, and I cleaned it with a soft brush.
