 Good stainless steel kettle Jan 07, 2009
The kettle works well. I prefer the pouring spout on the Braun electric kettle which I used previously, but I have some concern about plastic kettles, such as the Braun, and the Chef's Choice is entirely stainless steel so that I am happier using it.
 Disappointing - Cheap construction Dec 29, 2008
I bought the Chef's Choice for its size and speed at heating water - which the product does do. What I did not expect was the handle to detach from the base of the unit - creating a job for Gorilla glue - which did not work either. So, each time we pick up the unit (as in the picture) the handle separates from the unit creating moments of anticipation - wondering when it will come apart once and for all.
This is my second Chef's Choice water boiler, and my last. The first unit (entirely different model but still Chef's Choice) worked wonderfully for a year. Due to design flaws, the boiler works when it wants - not when I need it.

 It set my house on fire! Dec 29, 2008
We used this tea kettle every day, all day. We did leave it plugged in since we used it so often. It worked great until...12/23/08. While my mom showered and my son slept, the kitchen went on fire. They were able to get out but the entire house was a lose.
No more electric tea kettles for us! We're going back to the old fashioned way (once the house is rebuilt) and will watch the water boil in a tea kettle on the stove.
Very good, lasted a year so far Dec 24, 2008
We are extremely pleased with this kettle. For over a year now, it has faithfully boiled water quickly and easily. Our last kettle was the Braun version and that one began to leak after six months and this was our replacement. I just bought this one again as a gift for my mother.
Pros:
1. 1 year + without any problems
2. super easy to clean
3. no need to replace filter--just pop it out and clean it
4. cordless and automatic shut-off
5. quick
6. does not spill when you pour
Cons:
1. automatic shut-off does not work if the lid is up (i've forgotten to close it a few times)
2. the outside does get hot but neither of us have ever scalded ourselves
3. some discoloration on the base but not an issue
4. hard to read level but after a few uses you can estimate how high to fill it
Our usage: every morning we drink four cups of tea, followed by afternoon tea, and tea for the evening (yes we are tea addicts!); also I use this to boil water for pasta and to make stock because it is much faster than the stove
Highly recommended.
Really excellent Dec 12, 2008
This kettle replaced my plastic Bodum kettle that finally bit the dust after daily use for four or so years. I wanted to get something that matched the appliances in our kitchen and that could hold a LOT of water.
This fits the bill beautifully. It's gorgeous, and of a high quality. I love that it holds a lot of water -- we also make a lot of ice tea, and this is how we make it in the winter time ;) -- so the reviewers who are saying it's too heavy: that's why. It's because there's a lot of water in the kettle.
The only negative -- unlike the Bodum, the outside of this kettle gets VERY, VERY hot once it's "done its thing." Like so hot that if a child touched it for more than a nano-second, it could result in serious injury (I'm guessing this is due to the stainless steel, which is not insulated). We have a 2.5-year-old, and if I'd known this, we may have gone with a different kettle. But we just keep it out of the "grab zone" and stress that it is a "no touch."
