Q: How long is the power cord ?

Q: Does this have a visible "coil" inside the pot that is the element for heating water, etc? And How many ounces does it heat in one 'event'.?
submitted by Savvy Shopper - 8 years ago
A: I don't know as I bought this for a wedding present.
submitted bySandwest - 8 years agoA: No visible coil which is much nicer than the old ones.. The heating element is in the detachable base. I don't go by the "cup" markings on the side they are much smaller than a regular cup. It holds 4 8oz cups plus 2 oz so 34oz which is also marked on the side. This is a great kettle and Bodum is a great brand!

Q: Can you heat up milk for hot chocolate or is it just for water
submitted by Dolly - 9 days ago
A: Thank you for your question! The BISTRO Electric Water Kettle is designed exclusively for boiling water. It should not be used with milk or any other liquids, as this can significantly shorten the lifespan of the kettle. If you’re looking for an appliance to help you make the perfect hot chocolate, we recommend exploring our range of Bodum electric milk frothers. Hope this helps!

Q: Does it make noise when ready?
submitted by Xtina - 2 months ago
A: Thank you for your question! The BISTRO Electric Water Kettle features an indicator light in the handle that illuminates while the water is heating and turns off once it reaches a boil. You’ll also hear an audible click as the power switch moves from on to off when the automatic shut-off activates. However, the kettle does not emit a beep when the water boils. Hope this helps!

Q: Can I add loose leaf tea to the water ?
submitted by Sue - 6 years ago
A: We would not recommend placing the loose leaf tea into the kettle. We recommend placing the loose leafs into a stainless steel infuser and pouring the hot water from the kettle over it in a mug for the best brewing results. Enjoy!

Q: How can I replace the burned out light?
submitted by DJSE - 8 years ago
A: I have never experienced this. I would contact Boodum directly or simply buy a new kettle. Replacing a light is probably not cost effective.

Disappointed
I bought this product because it used to be a good brand. The entire tea kettle is made out of plastic except for the base. No one should be boiling water in plastic. It’s going back.

Plastic
I didn’t realize the interior was plastic too. I’m not interested in heating plastic to boiling and then putting plastic chemicals in my coffee.

I really like this version of the Bodum Kettle a lot. Prior to this one I was using an old style much smaller white pot. The handle was broken in two places and my husband had to reconnect the wiring to post when it shorted out a couple of years ago.
I do wish this new kettle had the measure indicator column on both sides of the kettle so it would be convenient for the left handed users.

It's a good kettle
It boils water. It shuts off after the water boils. What's not to like?

Works Great
It will boil water in about 30 to 45 seconds. I wasn't expecting a $20 water kettle to work so well, but I love it nonetheless.

Sleek Design Great Kettle
Love this electric kettle! It's quiet and boils quickly. It also has a great sleek design that I don't mind having to look at since it lives on our counter. I would highly recommend!

DO NOT BUY IT
It slowly stopped heating water after a few weeks. I wrote it off to being on uneven tiles on our counter but after 3 months it now does not heat ever. The on button pops immediately after turning it on and no amount of adjusting the base, water level, or angle helps. It’s poorly designed because there is nothing wrong by with the heating mechanism and it will heat water if you stand there holding the button down while the water heats. A pan on the stovetop works better than this hunk of plastic. I contacted Target and they said they wouldn’t take it back and to contact Bodum. Bodum would not repair or offer any troubleshooting help.

Broken after 3 months
Terrible product, we have had this kettle for 3 months and it’s power button is broken. It will still heat water if we stand next to it and hold it down, but otherwise it doesn’t work at all. Major design flaws! Will not be buying from Bodum again.

Design flaw
Design flaw in this item. Lid pivots on two teeny tiny posts that are molded into the inside of the kettle. The kettle arrived with one post broken off. This cannot be fixed. Hard to understand how an international company like Bodum would market such a flawed appliance.
