Review on πŸ”Œ Cuisinart JK-17 Stainless Steel Cordless Electric Kettle, 1.7 Liter by John Salleh

Revainrating 1 out of 5

The problem is a poorly designed switch.

We ordered this cordless kettle from what appeared to be a reputable company. When the device arrived it was not working. When the switch is pressed it should stay down and pop up when the water boils. The switch didn't work. (Another reviewer said they used a weight to hold it down but then it wouldn't pop out and could be dangerous if forgotten!) But without checking the reviews I figured the switch issue was a must have been an accident. So we exchanged it for an identical model that just arrived a few days ago. It worked! But only for about a day, and then the same problem appeared. Since the people who rate this highly are very happy with it, I'm inclined to try again. I'll definitely get it with a working switch sooner or later, right? However, some reviewers say the switch fails a few weeks after purchase (rather than on arrival or a few days), so we decided to try a different model.

Pros
  • Home & Kitchen
Cons
  • I vaguely remember
