Bad reviews due to user error

I really like this and really wanted to take the time to respond to some of the bad reviews that bothered me and might bother others.1. The kettle does not spill water from the lid. The spout on this teapot starts at the bottom, so it needs to be tilted a bit. If the tilt is too strong, the lid won't stand up and drips a little. This does not pose a safety hazard as the electrical element is right in the middle of the floor - it is very difficult to get it wet.2. It doesn't burn fast. What happens is when you have hard water, sediment builds up - sometimes pretty quickly (it happens with anything stainless). It looks like pitting due to the position of the heating element. Boil some water with vinegar in a saucepan and it will disappear.3. Accessing presets is not difficult. There are 2 buttons, one starts you at 120F and you press until you get your desired temperature, the other button cycles through 6 presets - one click for each of the presets and then it repeats. I have never measured the temperature. to test the accuracy of the thermometer, but I found what presets work for my purpose and I'm very happy with the results. This kettle is FAST and the fact that it holds the temperature for 30 minutes came in really handy. That saves me a lot of time. The kettle itself isn't insulated, but since it maintains the temperature, I didn't mind. The only thing left to test is endurance over time. I've been using it for a few months now and it works fine. All in all, I highly recommend this purchase!
