Product Description
Amazon.com Review
This attractive brushed stainless-steel electric kettle boils up to 1-3/4 quarts of water for tea, coffee, or instant oatmeal and soups. The 1,500-watt power base heats water quickly and, for safety, automatically shuts off when it reaches a boil. The cordless kettle conveniently lifts off the base to travel to the breakfast table, desk, or wherever tea is being served and has a cool bottom so it can rest on any surface. Unlike many other electric kettles, the heating element on this one is concealed within the jug. This design prevents calcium build-up, which can alter the flavor of hot water. The kettle also has a button that opens the lid with a single touch for easy refilling and an easy-to-read water level indicator. Other perks on this jug include a large, stay-cool handle and a wide lip for pouring. Cuisinart covers this cordless electric jug kettle under a 3-year warranty. --Cristina Vaamonde

Hazard,
This review is from: Cuisinart CJK-17BC Cordless Electric Jug Kettle, Brushed Stainless Steel (Kitchen)
Being British and around electric kettles all my life this has to be one of the nicest looking but one of the worst designs. Having owned this kettle one week I have already accidentally hit the lid button whilst pouring boiling water into my cup. The on/off switch is in an ackward place, the on/off light indicator is difficult to see. This kettle is an accident waiting to happen.

Please consider something else,
By James East Coast "James East Coast" (East Coast) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Cuisinart CJK-17BC Cordless Electric Jug Kettle, Brushed Stainless Steel (Kitchen)
I read the reviews - in particular the comment about the thermostat - and decided I would have better luck - therefore I went ahead and purchased this kettle. For 3 months I was happy.. & then the problems began. Over the next 3 months the thermostat slowly stopped functioning. This kettle will boil off the entire contents without shutting off. Then the kettle developed a leak (location - at the water level indicator).

Defective product.,
This review is from: Cuisinart CJK-17BC Cordless Electric Jug Kettle, Brushed Stainless Steel (Kitchen)
This is a defective product, from my experience, which is best to avoid. I purchased this unit at Bed Bath and Beyond. In less than two days the button which opens the top lid broke off.
I exchanged the unit for another Cuisinart CJK-17BC. On the second (replacement) unit, within 1 day of use the button which opens the top lid got stuck and would no longer open the lid. 2 out of 2 units defective--not a good track record. In my opinion, the mechanism which opens the lid is poorly designed and prone to these problems. I just replaced this unit with the Braun WK600 Impressions 7-Cup Electric Kettle. I am very happy with the Braun--has the same great look/features of the Cuisinart, but seems to have a much more reliable lid.
