Boils FAST: Update 08/27/20

I would like an oval teapot but they don't seem to make it. I timed another Hamilton Beach kettle and it boiled the water 2 minutes faster. (Plus, it costs $10 more) The higher the power, the faster it cooks. This is my first kettle and I really love it. The only downside is that the cord doesn't retract but wraps around the underside of the base. So you won't get "exactly" the cable length you want, but that doesn't matter. He does what I want. Fast boil. Then it turns off immediately. Update: I can't believe this product has gone up in price by so much! When I clicked buy again, the price was $43. I only paid 29€. I would wait to see if it falls again. Also, some people have noticed that this kettle keeps boiling and doesn't turn off automatically. (Dangerous!) I thought I had the same problem today. However, I was wrong. Even though I had a lid, it didn't snap into place. As soon as I did that, it turned off. Make sure you push down on the lid until it closes. I still love my kettle!

Pros
  • VOLUME 1.7 LITERS: Prepare water for a cup of tea or as much as needed for a group.
Cons
  • Negative impression
