Housed in a smooth, modern-looking design, this 1000-watt electric kettle rapidly boils up to 1 quart of water for coffee, tea, instant soups, and more. The unit features a detachable cord and a nonspill spout for graceful serving, plus a generous handle with a secure grip. Its immersed heating element provides a rapid and quiet heating process, making it ideal for the office, home, or college dorm. Dual water-level indicators allow for convenient filling, and the unit's easy-open lid is designed with a security lock to prevent spilling. And there's no need to worry about leaving it on, the kettle automatically shuts off when the water boils, and its boil-dry protection keeps the unit from boiling when there's no water left

Electric Kettle:
We use the kettle to make ice tea.Now we can do it in no time.It works great,by the time I get the teabags and the sugar out of the pantry the water is boiling.
Never again single-body kettle:
I didn't notice the fact that the kettle is of single-body design, which means you have to unplug and plug everytime you feed the kettle directly from the tap or serve water away from where it stands. It's not about the function -- it boils quiet and fast as expected -- but the whole-body design is quite annoying. Would prefer an isolated version with socket connecting them safely together -- good for feeding and serving. Other than that, the heating part is of twisted-tube design and also a problem... more info
Good little unit:
This unit works well for heating water. It is fast and does no take up much space. My only CAUTION, is that heating water is all you can do. With the heating coils exposed this is a unitasker. I should have gone more expensive for a unit that did more. Not this products fault.
strange odor:
Followed the directions for the initial cleaning (boil water in it twice then rinse) and afterward it still had a plastic odor inside but most all the odor seems to have dissipated after the third boil. Bought it to make black tea at work but am reluctant to actually do so until the plastic odor is completely gone. Design is easy to pour without getting burned by steam.
