boils water extremely fast!!

i have had this (my first) electric kettle for a few weeks now, and have been very pleased with the performance. it boils water VERY quickly, and to a very high heat. i have even cut back my brewing time on my tea because the water is so hot. the kettle seems big, but in comparison to others, it isn't that much bigger, but the round shape makes it a less conventional fit for a countertop. the only drawback i can see is that if you accidentally hit the ON switch (which is easy to do) and the kettle happens to be empty, it would be easy to destroy the item. i accidentally hit it and managed to turn it off before much damage occured, but i did distinctly smell a slight melting plastic smell. the kettle still works well though and whatever happened, it didn't seem to affect the performance of the product whatsoever. the other thing i was a little disappointed in (has nothing to do with product performance) was that it was made in china, though that seems to be the way of things now. other than that. i LOVE this kettle. a full kettle will come to a full roiling boil in a little over 5 minutes.

Krups electric tea kettle

The kettle replaces one I had for several years. This new one is excellent. The window on the side not only shows the water level but there is also a light inside the kettle that glows blue and makes it very easy to see when the water is boiling. I'd recommend this kettle to anybody.

Better than a tea pot!

I live in very high elevation and it takes FOREVER to boil water. I bought this Krups Electric Tea Kettle and it takes less than a minute to boil the water. It is very easy to clean out the mineral deposit's from our hard water.

Love it!

My husband used to burn my tea kettle all the time! Finally I got this electric tea kettle and we love it! It really boils water in no time! Speedy speedy! The kettle holds up to 32oz. water and it is plenty for my big family of tea drinkers! We absolutely love it and think it is the one of the best purchases we made!

Bad plastic odor

Had to return this, as it made the entire house smell like bad plastic. Thought I was getting a metal kettle, but the plastic pieces have a solvent-type odor which became overpowering when the kettle was heated.
