Product Description Housed in a smooth, modern-looking design, this 1000-watt electric kettle rapidly boils up to 1 quart of water for coffee, tea, instant soups, and more. The unit features a detachable cord and a nonspill spout for graceful serving, plus a generous handle with a secure grip. Its immersed heating element provides a rapid and quiet heating process, making it ideal for the office, home, or college dorm. Dual water-level indicators allow for convenient filling, and the unit's easy-open lid is designed with a security lock to prevent spilling. And there's no need to worry about leaving it on, the kettle automatically shuts off when the water boils, and its boil-dry protection keeps the unit from boiling when there's no water left

I HATE it! ($15...) January 8, 2009 I bought this as a quick summertime replacement after purchasing a $100 one for the house- at first I thought that I wished it was available the first time I went shopping for one. Then, I realized:
-the lid is awkward and leaks steam and water (you have to pour VERY carefully to not be burned and/or leaked on) - the water does indeed taste like plastic (I thought this would go away EVENTUALLY but didn't; boiled vinegar in it and now the water tastes like plastic AND vinegar...) -the auto-shut-off doesn't work regularly. Sometimes it boils for minutes, without shutting off. -cord is VERY short- one must constantly plug/unplug to use- a huge nuisance.
I hate it. (So does my neighbor, who happens to have an identical one, which I found out as I was randomly complaining about it!)
(What can I expect for $15?)
Great product January 6, 2009 Once you own one of these, you will wonder how you ever lived without it. This is easy to use, is faster than a microwave and very well priced.

I bought this kettle because of its size and price. It was really hard to find something moderately priced with 1 Quart capacity. It is not too bad for the price - it has nice look, good form factor, and automatic shut off. However, I still feel the smell of plastic in boiled water after one month of use.

This makes having a cup of tea effortless! I cannot say enough about this product. I'm able to make a cup of tea in 2 minutes or less by simply filling the jug up to the minimum fill line. It works great for college dorm rooms, studios, or even a household that is sick of putting a kettle on the stove! It also enhances the flavor of your tea and tastes extremely better than microwaved water (and it's faster too)!

The plug is so short that you are constantly plugging and unplugging it. To dump the water out into the sink, you have to unplug it. On mine, the auto shut-off didn't work, so it just kept boiling. When you pour it, it ran all over the side as well as in the mug. I am totally returning this thing.
