2.0 out of 5 stars Most important - how does the water taste?, July 27, 2009

I purchased the Cloer kettle for use in my office hoping that the water would taste good enough for making tea. It doesn't. The blue light is cool, but what I really want is clean hot water. After boiling the kettle out a couple of times, I made a cup of tea. The after taste was terrible. In the process of boiling, the water absorbed some something from the kettle. I attribute it to the silicone gasket and plastic construction. I sent the unit back to Amazon.

I have also tried the Proctor Silex K2070-1. The after taste on that one was at least twice as bad as the Cloer. It went back to Amazon as well. In my search for a kettle that makes clean hot water I will next try the Hamilton Beach 40898. That one appears to have no plastic in contact with the water.

Water coming out of a kettle should be identical to water boiled on a stove or in a microwave - steaming hot with no taste. Since most manufacturers are good at including "free flavor" with their kettles, why not make the flavor earl grey. Then they would have something.

This kettle boils water FAST, is easy to use and easy to clean. It is easy to see when the kettle is on - it has a blue light that lights up the water while heating. The light turns off when the water has boiled or the kettle is off.

My husband is Bristish so we drink A LOT of tea. He was skeptical at first - he said you can't get a proper kettle here in the states. This kettle has changed his mind. This kettle is made in Germany and is very well made (sturdy - not cheap).

I highly recommend this product.

5.0 out of 5 stars Probably the coolest-looking kettle out there, May 21, 2009

I just got this kettle as a replacement for the old leaky one. It is now officially the coolest-looking kitchen appliance in our home. It is still too new to tell anything about its quality though. If it breaks within a year - I will come back and update this review.

Our old kettle had an exposed heating element, which, in my opinion boiled the water a bit faster than this one. But, it accumulated deposits that were hard to clean, which was a drawback. A large opening at the top of this kettle makes it really easy to reach inside and clean if need be. Its VERY easy to see how much water is in the kettle, as oppose to kettles with narrow plastic windows. It does not get as hot as steel or glass kettles, at least not to the point were it will burn you if you touch it. And of-course - our kids and everyone else like that blue LED light that shines through the water. Its like a lava lamp in fast motion, when the kettle is boiling. In short - so far we are very happy with this product.
