I had the previous Cordless Electric Kettle, while this one is nice the older version fit into my refrigerator in door space for filling, this one does not I have to use a 2cup measuring cup and fill it several times. Also this kettle with the water in it is much heaver to lift. The screen at the pour spout gets I my way when I fill the kettle.

The kettle works great, and it looks great as well. The one thing I have noticed and I am still trying to adjust to is that it gives my water a noticeable smell and taste after boiling it that other pots I have used do not. I have double filtered and purified water, that I know does not have the smell or taste prior to boiling it. At first I attributed it to the fact that it may have been the "newness" of the kettle continuing to burn off. But it has been much too long for that now. Temp is great also. I was planning on buying another for camp, but probably won't.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

No matter how many times I boiled water it had a plastic taste I could not get rid of. Also, the bottom of the kettle was stained with less than 10 uses. This was a miss for me.

Purchase was based on this electric kettle’s clean & unique design and cost; doesn’t disappoint when it comes to functionality either! Quick to boil, easy to operate and absolutely worth the simple 2.5 minutes a month it takes to descale and clean thoroughly! … in other words: disregard the reviews that complain about how a crystal clear glass kettle is “poorly made” or “a waste of money” because those buyers don’t understand how to maintain an appliance by actually cleaning it regularly and seem to think a product at this price point and made of *literal glass* should keep its original condition/look without any upkeep or effort… lol. But I digress. Keep up the good work Cuisinart.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Cons. The fill marking is only on one side. Almost every time the kettle is boiled there is calcium forming at the bottom of the kettle. I know it is due to the hardness of water being used but my previous kettles took a while before getting calcium build up. The filter screen is awkward to take off and replace. Pros Nice SS base. Quick to boil Easy to clean. Simple Lid Open/Close Mechanism
