Not worth the money

The kettle does its job: it's a gooseneck kettle with temperature controls and a keep-warm option, so that's nice. But there are some design flaws that have gotten frustrating after a year of ownership of a rather expensive piece of equipment.
- Touch sensor buttons are not a good choice for a kitchen appliance. It's also not super intuitive. I don't have a problem turning it on and setting to the desired temperature, since I read the manual. But I have to instruct guests how to use it because it's not apparent without guidance.
- The way the lid is designed funnels all the steam out at an angle, so you need to line it up correctly when you pour or else the steam will vent on your hands when you pour. There's an arrow on the lid indicating how to align it, but it's faded over the year that I've had this kettle.
- The kettle wobbles in the base.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This kettle works very well - Quality materials, simple controls, heats up quickly and well controlled pours. The steam vent is made into the kettle's lid, so aviod steaming the handle you have to be very careful how the lid is placed onto the kettle. The obvious solution is to make the steam vent into the kettle's body..
