So far so good....
By RebTow
After reading every single review and practically poking my eyes out....I decided on this one, in part because it has a glass pouring spout, glass interior and hidden heating element. No plastic touches the boiling water...only the condensation on the plastic lid. It's slim pickens out there these days. My 16-yr-old Russell Hobbs kettle suddenly bit the dust. It was a real RH (before the company was sold off) and it had the heating element inside the stainless steel kettle. Over 16 yrs, we went from a family of 6, hardcore tea drinkers....down to just the two of us. To go from that old RH to this glass one was a leap of faith. I initially am not disappointed. I boiled an initial pot of water & dumped it. Then I washed the interior out with soap & water before boiling two more kettles to spill out. It was easy to get my hand inside to clean it. It took 7 minutes to bring ice cold tap water to a rolling boil at the maximum fill line. I enjoyed a pot of tea withou t any strange smells or tastes. It poured nicely into my teapot without any spills from the spout. It looks nice on my counter top and takes up less space than my old kettle. It's not too heavy nor is it cumbersome in any way. I can't live without the speed and convenience of an electric kettle and this one makes me super happy. I'm like "so modern" now! The only downside was that Amazon did not have this kettle in stock so I made the purchase from a vendor and had to pay a shipping charge (I'm a Prime gal). The vendor did pack well and I received it within 2 days anyway, so other than having to pay for shipping, it was still a seamless purchase. I will certainly update my review if I encounter any trouble with it because I am a militant tea addict. You're welcome.

Nice design and engineering. Quality feel.

I just received this today, so only time will tell. I read a LOT of reviews before making this purchase and so far I am happy that it has none of the short-comings I've read about other kettles. My primary requirement was that the kettle not be plastic. I've read about many of the "stainless steel" models rusting over time or having plastic liners or other plastic parts. This glass kettle solves most of those issues. The only plastic inside the kettle is the bottom of the lid and a small frame that holds the metal debris screen in the spout.

Starts bubbling within 30 seconds on being turned on and brings 30 oz of cold tap water to a rolling boil in just over 2 minutes. Boils the 50 oz. maximum volume of cold tap water in about 5 minutes. Pours beautifully. No spills or slop. Well balanced. Easy to read volume gauge. When the lid release button is pushed, the lid locks in the open position making filling easy. The lid also 'locks' shut.

The cord isn't actually retractable, but can be shortened or coiled up under the base. The only feature this kettle lacks that some avid tea drinkers might like is a temperature control. The only feature this kettle lacks that I would like is an audible signal that the unit has turned off.

So far, so good as I attempt to eliminate plastics from all of my utensils, food storage and processing. I'm very much hoping this product endures well.

Boils water quickly
By Jeanne G Maltese Deuso
We really like the electric glass kettle. It brings water to a boil quickly and then shuts off right away. It also shuts off when I lift it off its base. Very efficient. It is somewhat larger than my need but overall I would purchase it again.
