    2. List Price:$79.99 Image: http://bestdeallocator.info/image.php?id=B0000667GV Best price found: http://bestdeallocator.info/index.php?id=B0000667GV I think this product is worth every penny! I just wanted to add my stars to the rating- pretty much what everyone has said already -is what i would say! I've had this kettle for years and years and it's one of my favorite appliances - I use it multiple times a day and it has been wonderfully reliable. Sadly the lid handle (the plastic ring on top) came off last week -- there's a little plastic nut holding it on and it eventually gave out. I took the lid to my local Ace Hardware to try to replace the nut, and the assistant broken the ring handle while trying to find a nut to fit!! He gave me a replacement handle which is very basic and not at all stylish - now I'm on a hunt for a replacement lid handle without having to replace the entire kettle. The good news is that I can still use it - I just have to shut off manually. DO NOT TRUST THIS LID. We have had to get two replacements. The knob is flimsy & cheap. The replacement lid didn't seal & steam escaped to scald my hand. Chef's Choice Intl. Customer Service is kind and replaced lid number two. They were perplexed since this was a problem with the older version not the newer one. We're waiting to see the results from lid #3. The frustrating experience motivated me to write my first review for other amazonites. Evidently the product used to be Germany rather than China (maybe that was a poor production move). I have been using this fantastic pot for two weeks now, and I'm totally and unabashedly in love with it! I researched electric kettles for weeks, narrowed it down to six, read endless user reviews, kept weeding the list until this beauty was the last to stand. Read more of the reviews and decided to give it a go. The price made me gulp, as I had always used your basic enamel teakettle but got sick and tired of burning them up as I'm at a point where I forget what's going on in the world if I turn my back on anything for two seconds. But it's a whole new world now! Fast boil, NO plastic inside (only the water level guide which water doesn't touch), shuts off after 30 sec. of rolling boil, no smell, pretty shape -- no regrets at all and it's worth every penny! (Read the instructions so that you use and care for it properly. It's easy to use, but read it.) I love this tea pot. It is fast, quick and looks much better than I originally thought. People have said it continues to boil for longer than necessary, but mine shuts off as soon as the water boils. I had a Quisinart that died after two years of use, and a friend recommended this one because he had used it for years. Pulling off the top can be a little hard at first, but now it is easy. There is a small plastic part inside, but you are not supposed to fill it up high enough to touch the part so I was willing to live with it. Includes Edgecraft 685 Cordless Electric Tea Kettle. For tea, instant coffee, or hot chocolate, this cordless, 1,500-watt electric kettle brings 1-1/3 quarts of water to a boil faster than a microwave. The kettle is made of stainless steel polished to a mirror finish. To provide 360-degree access, the kettle fits onto the power base in any position and swivels for easy liftoff. The heating element in the base never touches water, so there will be no mineral buildup on it. The roomy handle stays cool, the cord wraps on the base's underside, and rubber feet on the base resist slipping. For safety, the kettle shuts off automatically when water boils or if the kettle runs dry. The kettle stands 8 inches high on its power base and carries a one-year warranty against defects. --Fred Brack SIMILAR PRODUCTS: Pyrex Storage 10-Piece Set, Clear with Blue Lids:http://bestdeallocator.info/index.php?id=B00005B8K5 Bodum Columbia 8-Cup Stainless-Steel Thermal Press Pot:http://bestdeallocator.info/index.php?id=B00005YY9X Bodum Pavina 2-Ounce Double-Wall Thermo Glasses (Espresso/Shot), Set of 2:http://bestdeallocator.info/index.php?id=B000A5CLG6 Panasonic KX-TCA60 Hands-Free Headset with Comfort Fit Headband:http://bestdeallocator.info/index.php?id=B00007M1TZ Oxo Good Grips Flexible Vegetable Brush:http://bestdeallocator.info/index.php?id=B00004OCL2 ACCESSORIES: Jenaer Senso Teapot:http://bestdeallocator.info/index.php?id=B0000CDLOY Oneida Jenaer Museum Teapot:http://bestdeallocator.info/index.php?id=B0000CDLOV Edgecraft 8400000 Chefs Choice Waffle Pro Five of Hearts No.840:http://bestdeallocator.info/index.php?id=B00196QOHM Chef's Choice 750 Professional Meat Grinder:http://bestdeallocator.info/index.php?id=B000FKV9GO Rösle Tea Strainer, Fine Mesh:http://bestdeallocator.info/index.php?id=B000063Y8P
