Great Electric Kettle
This was purchased as I was sick at the end of last year. I wanted hot liquid to drink that was not caffeinated and began drinking fruit tea. I purchased this electric kettle for that purpose. It has been used multiple times a day for a month now and has been fantastic.The steel construction is very solid. You push the button and in a few minutes the water boils and you pour it in the cup. It does have a safety feature where when the water boils it will shut off within a minute or so. This is handy as sometimes I am made to join impromptu meetings and I cannot get up to shut it off. This was problematic using a pot on the stove. The kettle also retains heat pretty well so if you don’t get right to pouring it the water is likely to still be hot enough to use.The capacity is enough for me. It equates to about four cups of tea. I’ve been averaging three or four a day which makes it perfect.Overall this is a high recommendation. Other commenters have stated they are drinking more tea now for owning it. I join the ranks of these folks. The ease of use and functionality are exactly what I was looking for.

Exactly what I was looking for
Simple and does what it’s supposed to. I usually use a kettle to boil water, but my husband wanted this because he assumed it would be quicker and easier. It boils water in the same amount of time that the kettle does but it is a little easier to use because it fits under the refrigerator water dispenser while the kettle does not. Overall a great value for the price.

Quick and Reliable
The only con I have with this product is that there is an interior metal lip between the glass section and the top plastic section, so when you turn the kettle upside down to completely empty it, about a teaspoon of water remains in the kettle.Everything else I have to say about this kettle is positive. It is super quick at heating water. It turns off consistently about 5 seconds after reaching a full boil. The handle is large for a good grip and does not get warm at all. Even the base the kettle sits on rises only barely above room temperature. I use the kettle daily, and haven’t unplugged it in months. My water is extremely hard, and deposits quickly grow in an arc following the outline of the heating element, but boiling a minimal amount of water with a fair bit of lemon juice removes it with no other work. I have seen no other deposits anywhere else in the kettle. There is a spout filter that I was not expecting, but was a pleasant surprise.Bottom line, this kettle does exactly what it’s supposed to do, is of good quality, is reliable, and is a very good value.

Great price, great, looks, great capacity, and great performance
. My lovely bride “suggested” that I research electric kettles since her beloved antique finally “retired.”Since I couldn’t find a direct replacement from that manufacturer, I cruised the available options, finally deciding on this glass model from Amazon Basics. Much to our delight, this was an excellent choice.In addition to serving it’s intended purpose with speed and efficiency, it is visually attractive as well.Great price, great looks, great capacity, and great performance.You won’t regret pulling the trigger on this one

Perfect for a small space
A simple kettle and the right size for a small space. Functions as described. Heats water quickly. Be aware that it does not have a keep warm function.The only thing I wish is that the measurements were in cups, not just liters.

It is super easy to clean, and really like that its glass so you can watch the water boiling.Turns off on its own so you can multitask.Space saver, durable, fast, easy to use, and lightweight.
