Heat water for a variety of beverages with this Hamilton Beach 40996 1.7L kettle that features a programmable clock that lets you wake up to preheated water and temperature adjustment buttons that enable easy adjustment and accurate results.
Design is good, pours easily, no spilling. The different temperature settings are nice since I drink a lot of green tea. I like that it doesn't shut off immediately once boiling temperature is reached but keeps boiling about 30 seconds longer. Those who don't like that can turn if off before it shuts off automatically. I cannot rate durability yet for I just got it a couple of weeks ago. Advise before first use: boil and discard the water about twice as often as recommended in instructions, after that the funny smell will be gone.
What's great about it: perfect design, different temperature settings
