Read all the previous reviews and you will not be disappointed in its few short comings. It would be nice if the cord would come out of the sides as well as the back for different counter setups. It would also be great if the grinders came in matching colors :)
The best thing for a quick cup of afternoon tea! Easy to use and quickly heats to the correct temperature for green, black and herbal teas. I was a little reluctant to purchase initially because of the price but so far it has been completely worth it! I’m impressed with how much better even my supermarket tea is! (I was just running hot water from my Keurig before it died). It is also nice looking and has a small footprint in the kitchen (wish I had spent slightly more money for the walnut handled pot). It pours easily with no splashing and produces less steam than expected (I am very careful with it and follow all of the safety directions because it does get hot). Highly recommend and I think it would also make a great gift.
This well-designed kettle is the first I've ever had that I'm glad to leave in full view. I bought the white one with wooden handle and it is a work of art. It holds 30 ounces, all 2 of us need in the morning, but if you need more cups, try the larger one.
When I was shopping for a new kettle, this one was rated similarly to others, but was double the cost. So glad I made the leap as this is much better. We use it once or twice each day, have had it maybe 3 weeks. Quick, accurate heating, lovely style, good capacity, quality materials and components. The only thing that would make me change my mind from this being an excellent value would be if the heating fails within 2 years. Great so far!
