    5 out of 5 stars Great for the Price   August 15, 2008

    I bought this about two years ago when I went off to college, and it still works perfectly. It's one of my favorite things I've bought for college. I use it to heat water for tea, instant oatmeal and other foods, to heat bowls of water to defrost my minifridge, and for anything else I need hot water. I hate making tea in the microwave, and this is perfect for it.

    It doesn't take very long at all to reach a boil, even if filled to the maximum. The things I liked about this kettle was its price, its size, and its automatic shut-off. I particularly like the automatic shut-off because then I can just put water in and turn it on without having to worry about it breaking or causing a fire if I leave the room before it boils and forget about it (which I do a lot) because it shuts off automatically when it boils.



    3 out of 5 stars Pretty good, but more expensive might be a better value   August 7, 2008

    I've had a braun electric water kettle for years, have used it daily for tea, and I've always loved it, but when I needed another one for my office, I thought I'd get something cheaper, and the reviews here are so good.

    So I got the K2070. First of all, it does boil water.

    I'm sure after a few months (I've only had it a month) the toxic plastic smell in the water will dissipate. Eventually I'll learn to not let my hand slide too high on the handle so it doesn't (repeatedly) get burned by venting steam. And I'll realize that setting the boiler down on the floor because it only has a four foot cord is fine. I'll get used to waiting a while for a single cup of water to boil. And the scaling, I know it's usual.

    If I had to chose again, though, I would spend the extra 25 on another Braun because it's perfect. totally perfect.



    4 out of 5 stars Very good product, excelent price   August 7, 2008

    For the price, it does not get much better than this electric kettle. It is a nice size, not too large or small. The automatic shut-off is very nice. Over-all a competent, well-priced machine.

    Initially the product does have a fairly strong plastic smell, but it wears off after using it a few times.



    3 out of 5 stars works but...   August 7, 2008

    This product works fine. Heats water rapidly and is very easy to use. My only problem is the possiblity of toxins given off in the water that is heated in it. For this reason I limit the use of it with my daughters.


    1 out of 5 stars Do Not Buy - Defective Product, Terrible Vendor   August 6, 2008

    DO NOT BUY THIS ITEM FROM THIS VENDOR (Polsteins Home&Beyond). Although my order arrived promptly, the kettle does not work. When I got in touch with Customer Service to discuss replacement/refund, they told me to contact the manufacturer. I recommend selecting a different kettle that is not supplied by this vendor.
