Unfortunately our electric tea kettle began leaking only after using a short time. It seemed like a great kettle, kept the water hot for longer period. Due to another person experiencing the same thing, we did not replace it with a Cuisinart.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The outside of the pot gets too hot to touch so I can't use my other hand to help lift or steady it, which arthritis compels me to do. We regret this purchase and cannot recommend it. Our previous pot (KitchenAid) didn't have this issue.

This is my fourth electric kettle. First Cuisinart model. Sleek, sturdy design. nice for counter top. Heats water to perfect temperature for tea. Handy water level viewer. Easy to read with blue lighting. Easily swivels on its base 360 degrees for more convenient usage. I didn’t give kettle a five star rating for two reasons. Difficult to clean. Tapered top opening does not allow for hand cleaning inside of kettle. Same if using long handled brush. Also the spout filter doesn’t serve a purpose for my needs but is one more thing narrowing the top opening. Mineral build up may become an issue sooner rather than later. Time will tell.
I would recommend this to a friend!

The last multiple temp kettle fell apart only after a few months of use. Lip mechanism came apart and lid won't opened no more then last month it died totally. Water will NEVER get hot. Had to buy this same model again because no one makes a multi temp kettle which I need for making different types of tea. If someone else made one, I would never buy Cuisinart again. Worse than made in China brand quality!

Outer surface gets extremely hot - DO NOT use where children can get close to it. The gasket around the lid is misshaped enough that the lid doesn't close evenly all around. Lid could open more to make filling easier.

The exterior of the kettle heats up to a scalding temperature in use. The kettle body should have insulation both to protect the user and to preserve the remaining heated water for later use.

PROS: Heavy duty, not easily tipped, cord good length CONS: Opening is too small, the heat button does not stay on, we always have to press it 2 or 3 times. VERY annoying
