This kettle is a good, no-frills choice if you are looking for one which boils water quickly and quietly. I got this kettle for $5 off to augment the Hamilton Beach kettle I bought at Target for $15 bucks a few years ago, because my HB kettle is too noisy and I needed the spout this kettle has.The contact springs on the bottom of the kettle are a bit tight, which makes it harder than it should be to place the kettle onto its lightweight base. There is no temperature control and there are no buttons to press - just a lever switch on the kettle to turn it on. The switch flips itself off when the water is boiling hot.As others have noted, the kettle does NOT switch itself off when lifted off its cheap, plastic base (my cheaper HB does). This kettle's base has a short (28 inch), stiff, heavy duty power cord with a three prong plug (not sure why) which cannot be wound up in the base. The length of the power cord is a problem for me - I needed it to be 36 inches, so I'll have to get a short extension cord (the base has no screws, so you cannot replace the cord either).At 1000 feet above sea level, this kettle quickly boils cold tap water in a few seconds shy of 4 minutes and it does so reasonably quietly in comparison to my HB kettle - it could be a bit quieter if its base was solid (you can hear it boil, but it won't wake the whole house). The kettle and funnel surface get boiling hot, so be careful to only touch the handle.I am pleased its slender, goose neck funnel pours nicely without dripping. So, it's a good choice if you are looking for a slower, consistent pour-over kettle for your drip coffee.I took off one star for the power cord and base complaints, as well as it not turning off when lifted.
