5.0 out of 5 stars Good enough for my picky husband!, May 3, 2006

This review is from: Braun WK200B AquaExpress Electric Water Kettle (Kitchen)

Before ordering this item, I spent half a day reading just about every single review of every electric kettle on Amazon.com. Why? Because my husband HATES change and will look for any excuse to decide he hates something I've bought.

This is the first electric water kettle I've ever bought, but we nearly burned down our house last month by accidentally leaving my beloved Chantal kettle boiling on the stove as we left the house for two hours. OOPS!

So I read every review and tried to anticipate his every concern. The Braun has a separate heating element, so you don't have to unplug the whole thing to tote the kettle to the faucet. The heating plate doesn't require you to position it "just so" to work. The lid opens fully for ease of filling. There is an on/off switch and the all-important "boil-dry" auto-off feature.

The first thing my husband did was check to see how easy it was to pour hot water from a full kettle without spilling or splashing ... it passed with flying colors! In fact, he hasn't been able to come up with a single complaint about this kettle.

I like the fact that it boils water much faster than a kettle on the stove, and that it turns off once the water reaches a full boil. I even over-filled the pot a bit the first time, but no boiling water splashed out.

If Mr. Picky likes it, you probably will, too!

This kettle is attractive and well thought out. The swivel base is handy for left and right-handed households. Also, the two-sided power light and water level indicators allow you to put the kettle in different positions on the counter. Bought this and returned a cheap West Bend model after 2 days.

I owned this in Amsterdam. I promised myself, when back in the States, to get the exact one. I've had the US version for almost 2 years and I can't imagine not having one.
It is just as easy for left handed as for right handed people.
Easy to fill, clean and pour.
Boils in a snap!
