A Perfect Little Pot 5 out of 5 stars.
5 of 5 people found this review helpful.

This little pot boils a large amount (2 litres) of water in just a couple of minutes. The cordless base makes it so much safer and easier to pour when it's ready, the twist open lid helps you to avoid dumping the whole pot on yourself and I like the auto shut off so there is no chance of boiling it dry or starting a fire. The only small criticism I have is that the twist open lid seems a bit cheezy - like it might not last as long as the rest of the pot does. I will update my review if that turns out to be the case. Also, you should be aware that the heating element is exposed in the bottom of the pot so don't get this one if you expect to boil anything other than water as you will coat the element with it. Otherwise this pot is exactly what I wanted/expected.

Editorial Review:

With 1100 watts of power, this electric kettle boils up to 55 ounces of water quickly and easily, producing hot water for tea, hot chocolate, and instant soup in half the time of a microwave oven. Its cordless design allows for lifting the kettle off its base for enhanced mobility or serving guests at the table. The unit's durable nickel-plated heating element resists staining, while its removable, washable, mesh water filter reduces lime scale in beverages. The hot-water kettle also features a hinged lid for convenient cleaning and filling, and a water-level window for an accurate water fill. A power "on" indicator light and an automatic shut-off switch with boil-dry protection ensure added safety. Other highlights include a generous handle, a drip-free spout for graceful pouring, and cord storage to help keep countertops tidy. The cordless jug kettle measures 8-2/3 by 6-2/3 by 9-2/5 inches and carries a one-year warranty.

Thank You.

Plastic smell doesn't go away 1 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

This kettle does indeed impart a plastic taste to the water, and I could not get it to go away. I filled my kettle with water and boiled it every day for a week, and between boilings I let water soak overnight to try to get rid of the plastic smell. Although the smell did improve after the first couple boilings, it never went away and I am going to return it. I've had other brands of plastic kettle that did not have this problem, and for that matter most coffee makers are plastic and do not have this problem, so Krups must be doing something strange in their plasticizing process.

Editorial Review:

This kettle holds up to 54 oz. of water and offers a powerful 1750 watts that quickly and safely boils water for tea, hot cocoa, instant soup, oatmeal and more. It also offers a stainless steel locking lid with trigger-activated covered spout and a stainless steel concealed heating element that protects against corrosion. It is cordless with a 360-degree rotational base that allows the kettle to be placed back on its base from any angle. Twin water level indicators ensure water level can be seen at all times. It also offers an integral lime scale filter for the purest results, an auto shut-off for added safety and an illuminated on switch for added convenience. Cool-touch handle and body for safety.

This cordless electric kettle has turned out to be very practical in design, a pleasure to use, easy to keep clean, and boils water "bird speed". Definitely a good buy. j. price

Great way to heat water quickly 5 out of 5 stars.

My wife and I enjoy tea quite often, and this electric kettle works very well. Don't know how long it will last, so far we're very happy.

fast boiling 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

I drink lots of tea, and after spending a couple weeks in Paris this summer in a friend's apartment, and using the electric kettle there, I decided I'd like one for my house back home. This Toastess model is big for making a cup of tea at a time (the one I used in Europe was much smaller) but I couldn't find one I liked in a smaller size, so I went ahead and got this one. It works like a champ; I fill it just to cover the element inside, so as to make my cup of tea. Boils very quickly, and I like the fact that the pitcher is plastic because it keeps it lightweight.

In reading other reviews of kettles I noticed that some people seem to take issue with an exposed heating element (ie you can see the heating coil on the inside of the pitcher). I'm not sure why this is considered a problem by some; the kettle I used in Europe had an exposed heating element, and this one does too, but I don't have a problem with that.

The fact that it shuts off automatically as soon as the water starts boiling is great, and I also appreciate the cordless pitcher.

I can see this kettle coming in handy during soup season, when sometimes I need to add a bit of hot water to a soup or stew that is cooking on the stove.

I am well pleased with this kettle and don't hesitate to recommend it.

Editorial Review:

This unique looking small appliance is actually a cordless jug kettle that boils water faster than a microwave oven or a stovetop burner. It quickly starts the boiling process at the touch of a switch - it will even boil as little as two cups so it's great for one person only. And for added safety, the jug kettle shuts itself off automatically when the water starts to boil; it will also shut itself off if the kettle is plugged in while dry. The special stainless steel heating element resists corrosion and scale buildup. Please note: Teakettle is cordless, but heating element requires an electrical outlet. Does not whistle.

Great Tea Kettle 5 out of 5 stars.
5 of 5 people found this review helpful.

I moved to the States from Canada and was horrified to see how few electric kettles there are available in stores. The one I had back home is quite old so I left it there thinking I'll just run out to the store & buy one. WRONG! Most stores only carry a couple & they're over $40! And Macy's had one that was just plain weird!

Anyhoo, I found this one and ordered it. Sunbeam is a good popular brand in Canada so I felt confident in purchasing it. It is GREAT! It doesn't have the heating coils in the bottom which is good. The coils can build up mineral deposits over time. It just has a flat metal heating element at the bottom. It is quiet and you can see the water inside boiling away. And the auto-shut off is wonderful. I'm quite pleased with my purchase. Now, if I could order some good Canadian tea from here...

As a fussy tea maker having reliable hot water at the temperature I want is imperative and the Zojirushi delivers and delivers reliably. I do not leave it on all day but if you steep a pot several times it is nice to have
hot water ready to go as a pot is ready. It is great to fill it up in the evening and have it ready to use all evening
long. Highly recommend!

Wow, is this thing great... 5 out of 5 stars.
2 of 2 people found this review helpful.

I thought that I was a little silly buying this thing as I have an electric kettle that works fine. However, I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this thing. I am on a diet and drink a lot of tea now (instead of sodas, juice, etc.). I like to make large mugs of tea instead of making a whole pot each time. This appliance gives me hot water instantly and keeps it hot all day long. I am glad that I got the four-litre instead of the three liter. I am surprised at how often I end up filling the thing! I use it more than I thought I would. The different temperature settings are great if you enjoy gourmet teas. You can set the guage for the optimal brew temp and there is no guessing. The quality of the product is also excellent. The color is very neutral and goes with most everything, but it would have been nice to see a range of other colors to choose from.

Editorial Review:

An electric dispensing pot is a kitchen appliance that keeps water at a constant hot temperature for hot drinks and other culinary uses. Simply fill the pot with water and plug it in. It boils the water to 212??F and keeps it at a set temperature all day.

Common sense and comparison to the Rival (plastic) kettle 4 out of 5 stars.
2 of 2 people found this review helpful.

The 675 kettle has been used at least once a day for several weeks now (after receiving it as a gift from my folks who love theirs). It has now replaced a plastic Rival kettle that the household has not been sorry to see go. Although the Rival had longterm daily use, the 675 is a welcome addition for mainly one big reason: no spills!

The 675 heats liquid quickly, yes, but I simply love the generous pour spout -- we hadn't realized how much we missed fast, dripless pouring. The Rival's interesting spout "hook" design keeps the lid locked down but regular spillage-control (despite slow pouring) was needed. Not fun.

In response to comments about lid warpage issues and steam/condensation damage to cabinets, as well as child-safety issues: I would not put what's essentially a water vaporizor under cabinets. Not even with the lid closed (the spout is open). The Rival also puts out lots of steam and, after over two years with two Rivals total, the cabinets are fine because the kettles have been used without cabinetry problems.

Regarding heat transference on the outside of the kettle: the 675's not insulated. Yes, it gets hot (about as hot as the toaster). The Rival is similarly hot (I'd say that the Rival's larger heat surface gets hotter than the 675 as the element makes direct contact with the water rather than being of an internal element design). As with other appliances in the kitchen (and bathroom) it would be wise to protect adventurous or unsupervised little hands.

Regarding warpage issues with the lid: hopefully any issues will be avoided. We tend to heat the water while the lid is open in order to help gauge when the water is ready. One nice point about the lid: it will stay open until it's closed purposely as the hinge is firm.

The unit automatically shuts off when the pot is lifted off of the base (sweet!). For some reason I'm still caught off guard by that. I'm used to turning dial and unplugging the Rival. Regarding the 675's on/off: it's either on or off, temperature variations can't be tweaked (the Rival has a control for simmering -- this one doesn't).

All in all it's a great unit. Not the most high-end kettle but certainly gets the job done.

Editorial Review:

Perfect for the office, college dorm or traveling, this revolutionary Cordless Electric Hot Pot boils water for beverages and soups. Made of 18/10 stainless steel, its powerful 1500 watts allows for a quick full boil, faster than heating water in the microwave. The heating element sealed beneath hot pot floor never comes in contact with water, thus eliminating the possibility of mineral build-up. A convenient external water gauge is located in the handle for easy viewing and lid locks for safe pouring. Also features an On/Off switch, illuminated ON switch when unit is operating, automatic shut-off when water reaches a boil and double boil-dry shutoff protection. Holds 1.75 quarts.

This is what I wanted and received from Santa. Heats super fast, looks elegant on the counter and it is so nice to have it hot and ready in a jiffy. Worth every penny. Plan to give one to my sister too when her birthday rolls around.

Looking for plastic-free? Then this one's not for you! 3 out of 5 stars.
1 of 1 people found this review helpful.

If I had only known before buying this kettle that the boiling water comes into contact with plastic AND a rubber/silicone gasket, it would have spared me the trouble of buying it in the first place.

If this is a concern for you, avoid this kettle. There is both a rubber or silicone gasket inside the kettle at the base and a water level marker made of plastic. Both of these come into contact with boiling water. The strainer, which is also plastic, can be removed.

A couple more things:

-The kettle is quite LARGE - one of the larger ones I've seen.

-The directions say to empty out the extra water after each use. What?! Am I supposed to measure exactly what I need or pour the excess filtered water down the drain? In my opinion, neither of those is a welcome option. I prefer to simply leave the water sitting for the next use.

If you're looking for plastic free, I recently discovered and subsequently purchased such a kettle on Amazon:

The Chef's Choice 685 International Deluxe Cordless Electric Teakettle

The only piece of plastic sits above the water so that the two do not come into contact...Simply perfect for my coffee and tea!

An unwatched pot... 3 out of 5 stars.
4 of 4 people found this review helpful.

I purchased this kettle because I'm impatient. My original electric kettle was in good working order, but it took such a long time to reach a boil that I all-too-frequently wandered away and forgot it until it had boiled nearly dry!

I decided that a whistling kettle was the answer. What I didn't expect, though, is how very long it takes the West Bend kettle to boil two cups of water. I know that such things are relative, but I started the kettle, walked the length of my house, connected to Amazon, and wrote (NOW) this review before hearing the kettle whistle -- the "now" indicates the sound of the whistle.

Claims that this kettle is "faster than a microwave" are false -- my 1K Watt microwave boils two cups of water in 90 seconds.

The West Bend kettle seems well-built and does what it claims to do: It boils up to a quart of water and it whistles.

Editorial Review:

This West Bend 1-qt. teakettle whistles as it reaches a boil, so you know right when the water is ready. For safety, the UL-listed unit automatically shuts off when the inside boils dry, and the spout is equipped with a steam guard to prevent scalding. Also features a white cool-touch exterior and maximum-fill line. 100 watts/120 volts. Hand wash. 7Hx7.25Wx7.5L".

Very fast 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

We've used this kettle for daily coffee brewing for a couple years, we love it: turn it on, grind the beans, prepare the filter, and the water is ready. It is fast, safe and has lasted. The kettle is separate from the heating element so you can take the kettle anywhere, just like you would a stove top kettle.

On the down side, the kettle lid has a tongue that covers the pouring spout, and it does not retract properly. It tends to pop back out when the lid is removed, making it difficult to replace the lid. So I fill the kettle through the spout. This worked well once I removed the filter screen in the spout (I'm not sure what it was for, anyhow).

Also, the brushed stainless finish is no longer beautiful---it lives by the stove and has grease spots even after the grease has been wiped away. But it has lived a hard life and still looks better than the yellowed-with-age white plastic version I had many years ago, and it has not accumulated ugly hard water stains.

Some folks have recommended the Breville kettle over this one. If you want your water boiled as fast as possible, however, the Krups is the better bet as it has 1750 watts of power while the Breville has only 1500 watts.

Editorial Review:

Boil water anytime without a stovetop. This sleek stainless steel electric kettle has a tremendous 54-oz. capacity and uses a 1750-watt concealed heating element to boil water safely and quickly. Just fill to the desire level using the marked water-level indicator window and enjoy the benefits of boiling water in mere minutes. The locking stainless steel lid is easily released with a convenient trigger in the cool-touch handle. One-year limited warranty.

Excellent kettle (I bought 2!) 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

I'm sorry to hear that so many folks have had trouble with this kettle. My experience has been basically perfect. In 2003, I bought one for my mother and another for myself and they're both still going strong with no problems at all. I enjoy looking at the sleek design in my kitchen and it heats water faster than any kettle I've ever tried. After 5 years of great performance, I would definitely buy another if anything ever does go wrong. One suggestion, I have very hard water so I only put filtered water into the kettle and this has pretty much eliminated the mineral deposits that I did experience with previous kettles (manual and electric).

Editorial Review:

Cuisinart blends style with the latest in technology to make boiling water quicker and easier than ever. The elegant brushed stainless steel finish makes it the perfect addition to any table. Great for making tea, hot chocolate, oatmeal, instant soups and noodles, it will quickly become part of your daily routine. In just minutes, this contemporary cordless kettle brings up to 1.75-quarts of water to the boiling point then turns itself off. And it frees up stovetop space for making your meal essentials like pancakes or oatmeal. You'll wonder how you lived without it!
