 Finally a tea kettle that works! December 30, 2009

I have waited more than 3 months to review this tea kettle because I have bought so many in the past and written a rave review after just a couple weeks, only to have it break on me shortly thereafter. In fact, I'm still a bit afraid that if I write this review I will jinx my good luck with this tea kettle.
I bought the Krups kettle because of it's name, because I've heard that Krups products are good quality. It was a bit more expensive than other tea kettles out there, but after having bought 3 cheap ones in the past couple years that have broken down on me, I decided it was worth it to spend a bit more.
The design of the Krups kettle is pretty slick and it works very well. I've had problems in the past with the pop-up lid breaking, but this one has a nice smooth design that seems impossible to break. You can see the water levels through the semi-transparent blue and it has a nice swivel base. The water boils quickly, just as one would hope.
The only negative about this tea kettle is that you can only lift it by the handle after it has boiled because the metal part gets very hot. It took some getting used to for me because in the past, with my plastic kettles, I would sometimes pick it up with two hands, one on the handle and one on the kettle itself, so the first few times I used this one I burned myself. However, by now I've gotten used to it and don't think about it at all.
There was a "new kettle taste" in the water that lasted a bit longer than with other kettles, but of course after more than 3 months it is totally gone.
I hope this kettle will last me a long time! I'm very pleased with it and would recommend it.
Quick to the boil November 7, 2009

Have been using this kettle for about six weeks now and we are very pleased with it. The appearance is nicely finished and the blue light effect when heating is appealing. It has enough capacity to fill a 10 cup teapot and pours nicely without spilling. More importantly, it is quick to bring water to a rolling boil and quiet. Definitely worth the slight premium price over other products.
Well designed November 28, 2009

Not only elegant but, well designed - filling the kettle is a breeze with the nifty lid opening. Given the last Krups appliance I am hoping for years of use. Only disappointment - made in China (what isn't).
So cool, and fast! January 21, 2010

We have a lot of tea at home. And I mean a lot, like 4, 5 times a day. We had the kettle for a couple of months now, and we love it. It boils the water fast, it looks absolutely gorgeous and I have to admit, I think the blue light is one of the coolest things I've seen.
We are very happy with the purchase, and I hope this kettle can be with us for a long and happy life :)
