Customer Reviews
Average Rating: out of 5 stars
Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Great design, poor quality
We have gone through three of these kettles in about four years.I like the design and the fact that it brings water to the boil much more quickly than any other kettle.

On the first one, the thermostat failed after a few months.Krups couldn't repair it and gave us a new kettle.On the replacement kettle, the switch (that's operated either manually or by the thermostat) failed after less than a year.Krups again gave us a new one.This third one had a broken lid after a few months. ...

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - On / Off Switch Broke after 6 Months

Pros:
Heats very quickly
Cordless with convenient base station

Too easy to touch hot areas by mistake when grasping handle
Somewhat complex top (cover) design that can be difficult to remove and
replace

I just received this pot and would probably not have chosen it as I think there is probably another one of equal or lower price ... Read More

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Sick of junk
I purchased this kettle because it was stainless steel not plastic and, because of Krup's reputation for quality I was willing to spend more ---$70 vs $30. After only two and a half months of use it died. It simply would not function. I had to send it to a Krup's service center for repair. After one month it was replaced with a new unit [they were unable to repair the kettle] however I lost a month of my warranty time and it cost me $10 to ship it to the repair center.I complained to customer service about ...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Very fast
We've used this kettle for daily coffee brewing for a couple years, we love it:turn it on, grind the beans, prepare the filter, and the water is ready.It is fast, safe and has lasted.The kettle is separate from the heating element so you can take the kettle anywhere, just like you would a stove top kettle.

On the down side, the kettle lid has a tongue that covers the pouring spout, and it does not retract properly.It tends to pop back out when the lid is removed, making it difficult to ... Read More
