5.0 out of 5 stars Elegant, fast and simple to use...., January 6, 2006

It takes about 4 minutes to boil a 48-ounce carafe of water. The carafe is large enough to boil water prior to filling my 12-cup drip coffee maker (to get rid of the chlorine taste and etc.) and is easy to fill. I would call it almost fool-proof. The design of the lid (spring-loaded), while elegantly efficient, makes cleanup (every-so-often) a bit problematical since I have not figured out how to remove the lid prior to washing.

This is also the perfect accompanyment to the 'French press' coffee maker.

Note: Only water should be boiled in this carafe.

This is a very nice product (super-fast heating, nice little filter, cool touch, high quality parts, etc.), except that, as the other review noted, the top doesn't detach to ease cleaning.

I'm an old hand with kettles, I thought I'd give this one to my spouse for our anniversary, but it was a bit of a dud. When the kettle was ready to boil the lid would fall down, steam would go everywhere. And it would often take ages to turn itself off. Looked great but...Think I'm going to get the braun instead.
