meh
This kettle heats water just fine. why I gave it 2 stars - the lid is small, making it more difficult to fill with water or clean. the lid also seems flimsy compared to past kettles I've owned. the window to see the amount of water in the kettle is only on one side, making it hard to use if you are left handed, or the faucet handle is on the right side. I am going to look for an alternative and keep this as a back up.

Must go with Hamilton Beach. Whenever I want to buy in electric appliances I always prefer Hamilton Beach …weather it is iron, juicer, grinder or kettles.

Hope this one is better
I had to get rid of the last one because the plug got hot when it boiled a kettle of water. It was only 3 1/2 - 4 years old. I had to get an electrician to replace the outlet.

Economical Electric Kettle
This my go-to kettle for tea every morning. I like that you can see the water level so you don't over-fill the kettle. I appreciate the auto shutoff feature so the water doesn't boil over. The kettle is sturdy and sleek.

Wish my old Hamilton Beach hadn't died
The new design leave a lot to be desired: 1) the opening for pouring in water is too narrow and further limited by the angle of the top when it's open, 2) volume measurement guide is in litres not cups, 3) cord from base is very short, 4) spout is wide and perforated making it hard to control pour, 5) impossible to clean because the opening for pouring in water is so small.

the spout filter fell in 1.5 years of use
the spout filter broke and cannot be reinstalled. without the filter, the kettle cannot stop heating when water is boiling

Great Kettle for the Price
Easy to see the water level. Easy to open the top. Easy to fill. Heats quickly. Shuts off automatically. For an inexpensive kettle it is perfect.

Works Great!
I've only had this electric kettle for 4 days but it is doing everything it was promised to do. I get my water for tea boiled quickly and without any mess or inconvenience. I hope it continues that way!

We like the water level window on the side. Our previous kettle doesn’t have one
