Great kettle
Really like this kettle. Keeps water hot, boils fairly quickly. Only thing I would like is to see water level without having to open the lid.

great features, heats water fast and can be touched without getting burned
This works very nicely, it heats up quickly and I love how I can go from a low of 104 degrees, meaning I can use it for yeast, to boiling. I almost always use it at the 195 degree setting for coffee, sometimes one lower for hot chocolate. Also heats quickly enough that if you are in a rush for pasta, you can boil the water first in the kettle then pour it (carefully) into your pot to get a head start. The temperature is large and easy to read, and changes in real time while it heats up so that you can stop it at any temp along the way by removing it from the base. It has a 30-minute stay warm function, which is nice but would be even nicer if it were an hour or two. I LOVE how the double wall allows me to put a hand on the outside for stability without burning myself - it gets warm, but not hot to the touch. The spout is ok, sometimes it dribbles a little if you don't have it at the exact right angle. My previous electric kettle had a more accurate pour, but this one isn't bad. The lid will lift a little more manually for easier cleaning, although it stays angled and is not removable. I make sure to dry out the insides after using it (after allowing it to cool down) so that water doesn't sit in there and get disgusting, as it does in all kettles that aren't emptied of water and cleaned frequently. After about a month of use once daily, it started to get some scaling - easily cleaned with white vinegar per instructions in manual. I wanted to knock one star off because of the shiny black finish, which I find rather dated and cheap looking. If it were matte black (or gray or silver tone), it would be much more up to date in appearance and pleasant to look at. But that's just a visual preference, and the function of this electric kettle is deserving of five stars.

Reliable Kettle, But Longevity Could Be Better
This kettle quickly became my go-to for brewing tea and making instant coffee. The design is sleek, and the 1.7L capacity is perfect for daily use. It heats water quickly and efficiently, saving me time, especially during busy mornings. The smart temperature control feature is a big plus, allowing me to choose the perfect temperature for different types of tea, whether it’s green tea, black tea, or even herbal blends. The stainless steel interior gives me peace of mind that no plastic is coming into contact with the boiling water.Unfortunately, my experience wasn’t without a hitch. After about six months of regular use, the kettle suddenly stopped working. It was disappointing, especially since I had grown to rely on it for my daily routine. However, I must commend the manufacturer’s warranty service. They were responsive and processed my repair request, though it did take about 3-4 weeks to get it back. During that time, I had to purchase a different kettle, which was a bit inconvenient.Despite this issue, I still have a lot of love for this device. Once I got it back, it was just as good as new. The boil-dry protection is a handy feature that has saved me on a few occasions when I accidentally left it on without enough water. I also appreciate how easy it is to clean, with the wide mouth allowing me to reach in and scrub it out thoroughly when needed.Aside from making tea and coffee, I’ve found this kettle useful for other tasks too. It’s great for quickly heating water for cooking, like when I need to blanch vegetables or make instant noodles. The quick heating time is a real time-saver in the kitchen, and the ergonomic handle makes pouring comfortable and spill-free.Overall, despite the hiccup with its durability, this electric kettle is a solid choice. It does its job well, and the temperature control options make it versatile for various uses. If you’re looking for a reliable kettle and don’t mind the possibility of a repair down the line, I’d recommend giving this one a try.
