This Electric Kettle is quite simple without any frills. For the price, it does what it claims to do. It boils water quickly , the water level is easy to see and has the auto-shut off feature. I have used it reliably to boil water for tea, oatmeal etc. The water is quite hot, so use caution when pouring it out. The lid , can sometimes be hard to close & open.

I first became hooked on electric kettles when traveling in the U.K. and have kept putting off getting one. This is perfect for my six (O, heavens did I really say six!) cups of tea a day. Faster than the microwave (only because its actually boiled and hot) and no worrys about...did I leave the stove on as it has a brilliant auto shut-off. It even stays plenty warm enough to top off the first cup of tea. I love it, am only sorry it took this many years to indulge my self with such a simple product!
P.S -- Terrific on snowy days when the kids come in and want hot coco...FAST! (Makes one feel like SuperMom for the rare second or two!!! <g>)

Have used the Bodum electric kettle for travel for years, but decided I'd purchase this Proctor Silex for the office since it was a few bucks cheaper. That was a mistake.
Despite boiling and dumping out the water a half-dozen times, the water itself STILL tasted like "plastic." Ick. As a tea drinker, the quality of the water is key. Also, I found the general shape difficult to handle, the lid was hard to open, and when gently pouring the water it consistently (and dangerously) sloshed out the sides near the spout.
Anyway, I ended up giving this one away and buying an additional Bodum electric kettle for the office. It's working great, just like the 10-year-old Bodum I take traveling. (I think it's also interesting to note that the classic, no-frills, usable design of the Bodum has remain unchanged in the past 10 years - Hey, if it ain't broke, don't 'fix' it.)

Simple, easy, and it makes good tea
I don't know what else to say. The product works. It's easy to use, easy to clean, and heats up quickly for that comforting cup of tea.

Well made product
This product works quickly, but it is noisy if your trying to heat the water in a quiet office. Not the machines fault, just a side affect of rapidly heating up water.

So far so good!
I ran a full pot of water as recommended to clean it-it took 5 min to boil. I made my usual cup of tea and it took about a minute to boil. Awesome-no complaints. Read more

Nothing like a quick coffee.
The kettle doesn't take long at all to boil. The water is nice and hot, and stays hot in the kettle for a while. It has become a great addition to the kitchen. Read more

Proctor Silex kettle
The kettle heats water rapidly but it is noisier than my other one. I purchased this one for the office and when it is heating it sounds like a plane taking off.

Great, wonderful kettle with one (small) flaw.
This kettle heats up water super quickly. That's all it's meant to do, so I don't feel a really drawn out review of this is necessary. Read more

Should have bought this sooner.
Another great, simple, easy to use, efficient method to boiling water. I especially like the detachable cord for easy pouring. And it really gets water HOT! Read more
