Proctor Silex K2070H 1-Quart Automatic Electric Kettle, White Reviews
This was a gift my family and it works great. GREAT PRODUCT. Quick and fast. Great size for a small family that does not need a lot of hot water.
I bought this kettle over 2 months ago, for its compact size, to sit on my desk at work. But, after over a dozen washing - at first with dish soap and even tried soaking in vinegar once - plus dozens of pot of boiled water, it still makes the water smell like plastic. I finally gave up and tossed it in the trash today. The smell continues to overwhelm the tea I try to make.
(So does my neighbor, who happens to have an identical one, which I found out as I was randomly complaining about it). -cord is VERY short- one must constantly plug/unplug to use- a huge nuisance. Sometimes it boils for minutes, without shutting off. - the water does indeed taste like plastic (I thought this would go away EVENTUALLY but didn't; boiled vinegar in it and now the water tastes like plastic AND vinegar.). -the lid is awkward and leaks steam and water (you have to pour VERY carefully to not be burned and/or leaked on). I bought this as a quick summertime replacement after purchasing a $100 one for the house- at first I thought that I wished it was available the first time I went shopping for one.
Then, I realized:. (What can I expect for $15). I hate it. -the auto-shut-off doesn't work regularly.
This is easy to use, is faster than a microwave and very well priced. Once you own one of these, you will wonder how you ever lived without it.
I bought this kettle because of its size and price. It was really hard to find something moderately priced with 1 Quart capacity. However, I still feel the smell of plastic in boiled water after one month of use. It is not too bad for the price - it has nice look, good form factor, and automatic shut off.
