Bought this to avoid plastic .Very comfortable and water will be hot for a long time in the pot.lovely model design.worth it!

Update:It is very important not to fill it above 5 cup mark. The manual says between 3 and 5.I did not get the maunal with this item and when I was simply trying to fill it to the capacityleaving some two inches from the top then I experienced a heavy water leak while boilingand I did not know where it was coming from thinking there is abottom leak.So apparently it does NOT leak from the bottom, you just need to be verycareful how much you feel up this thing. Look inside for Min Max marksthat I also did not pay attention to and they are there... otherwisealso the manual says:it has to be dry on the outsid and the base has to be dry while usingso important safety issue.The manual is in your order record while you click the support button and follow instructions.I bought this pot some 6 months ago. Love it totally. I was very careful with choosing a pot asI love all things organic, clean, no plastic and non leaching materials, no aluminum and no coatings of a non stick type.So this felt like a good choice and it is indeed a healthy choice as I had a chance to browse ton of all different kinds. I finally settled for this one because:* I love the elegant design, in person is just gorgeous. It reminds me of those offered at Williams Sonoma site but this one is even nicer and cheaper.* I love the stainless steel interior. That was an absolute must for me as I don't like aluminum or glass as there are all kinds of impurities in glass. I also did not like the ones that have mixed materials inside, some glass, some metal, some plastic. This one is just that: PLAIN STAINLESS INSIDE. Not seams, no welding that could be contaminated, nothing, just plain one surface sleek and smooth.*The top is also stainless steel inside so no contamination. I often open the top for cooking anyway to let my water air as it boils to release any volatile chemicals that can go with the steam.* I love the design that is so practical and easy to use:- the holding arm is designed in funny way and I was wondering how pracitcal it will be but it is quite easy to use and hold and the angle is good.- The white finish is perfect gorgeous car like.. very good hard finish that will last. So easy to clean and does not attract dirt.- I love the little crystal accents, the handle of the top and the lever that you turn it on and off.- The turn on of lever is so perfect. I have no problem with fine motor skills but if someone has some limitations this is so easy, no turning no fine switches, just push with a finger or side of the hand.- No plugging or unplugging constnatly, you just keep the base plugged in and take it off and on as needed. You keep it parked on the base when you boil it or when it is waiting to be used or after use.- The base is solid and nice.- The light.. ah the light. I really love that little blue light that shines through the glass like lever thatlooks like a piece of ice.. so beautiful. It is on when the pot is boiling water and off once finished.MY most favorite function of course is the fact that it AUTOMATICALLY SHUTS OFF. Total pece of mind.I just pour water, turn it off and can walk away and forget it knowing it will not keep boiling till the end of times, it will boil the water and promptly turn itself off once done.It is Rocket fast!!! I did not time it but It is has to be around minute or two or so or three tops..as I barely can manage to connect it, walk away to do something and come back a nd it is done.Love it! I just came back to get a second one for different area in the house so I have my second tea station near the work space. Along with few bottles of water, I don't need a sink to make my tea whenever I fancy.

The product is good and very useful

I have been searching for years for an electric teakettle with no plastic inside, and finally I have found one!When I first got it, it had a plasticky, chemical smell. It had some sort of coating.After about 10 attempts at merely boiling water, then dumping it out didn’t remove the smell, I researched how to get rid of it. It turns out the best method is to cut up some lemons and/or limes and boil them in clean water in the teakettle, then let that sit (I let it sit over night), dump it out, then boil fresh water again.Finally, that worked. The smell was still barely perceptible to me, but I am a super smeller. No one in my family noticed it, and I couldn’t smell it once it was in the cup, not in the kettle anymore.After about a day of two of use, I could no longer smell it at all.I have had the kettle for about 2 months, and it still works well. It holds enough water for 4 mugs of tea, coffee, etc.The exterior of the kettle stays cool, such that my kids can use it without me having to worry.The way the auto-shutoff works is by a magnet that stops being magnetized when the boiling temperature has been reached. Apparently, that is how most analog kettles work. My autodidactic homeschooled son explained that to me. While I find that pretty cool, the real appeal is the lack of computers that will stop working before the actual mechanics of the appliance do. Reliably analog!I did drop it last week, when I was trying to take the lid off while I was holding the kettle. It still works, but the seam is slightly wonky now. It is not really noticeable. Top marks for taking a lickin’ and keeping on tickin’!The only cons are the initial smell, the fact that you can’t set the temperature or even know it, and the appearance is slightly tacky. I say slightly, because the handle is silver colored plastic, and that plastic jewel on the top is a little princessy for me. I hate the logo in silver. That is so tacky.However, I can abide by the pan-European-as-interpreted-by-the-Chinese aesthetic in exchange for WATER NEVER TOUCHING PLASTIC!!! You did it, guys!!! Wooo hooooo!!!!This company makes a more English-looking kettle with a thermometer, but apparently there is a little bit of plastic in that one, where the thermometer penetrates the kettle. Now, all my actual meat thermometers are metal probes, so I can’t quite figure that one out.The cream color is fine — pretty enough. Overall, it is attractive enough — except for that stupid dorky logo , but it isn’t a deal breaker.In conclusion, I recommend this tea kettle, but be prepared to do a little work to get the plasticky smell out, at first.
