Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Capresso 256 H2O Glass Cordless Safety Water Kettle
Customer Review: Excellent
Summary: 4 Stars
This kettle is great !I have tried several other brands , borrowed from friends to try etc. I got this as a gift and have been very pleased. I had hemmed and hawed for some time about getting an electric kettle - one more thing to question if I really needed or not ! This kettle is quiet, heats very quickly and looks (to my eye at least) much better than any of the others. Did I need an electric kettle? No, probably not. Am I glad I got one ? Yes, very definately. If you are going to have one why shouldn't it be nice to look at too !
Description of Capresso 256 H2O Glass Cordless Safety Water Kettle
The Capresso H2O Glass, Cordless Safety Water Kettle boils water faster, using less energy than any stove-top kettle. Its triple-auto-shut-off ensures maximum safetyFrom the maker of many of the world?s best espresso systems comes this cordless, 1.5-quart water kettle. Elegant in design, the Capresso glass kettle reaches a boil more efficiently, quickly, and quietly than a stovetop kettle. The kettle sits snugly on the power base with the handle facing any position, a boon for left-handed users. A mirror-finish stainless-steel dome inside the bottom of the glass kettle contains the powerful 1500-watt heating element, which shuts off automatically in three cases: when boiling point is reached; when water dips below a certain level, and when the kettle is removed from the base. The top is affixed to the kettle and flips open vertically for filling, while the ribbed stay-cool handle provides a sure grip. Because the cord stays with the base, the kettle can be conveniently carried to the table for pouring or to the sink for filling. To operate, simply fill the kettle with fresh cold water to the desired cup or ounce marking, close the top and place on the base, slide switch to ?on? position (blue button lights up), and in an absurdly short amount of time the water reaches full boil. The kettle should be used to heat only water, never soups or other foods, and care should be taken not to touch the hot glass. While the kettle is made of heat-resistant German Schott safety glass, it should not be refilled with cold water when hot. The kettle stands 9-1/2 inches high when sitting in the 6-1/2-inch-diameter base. A one-year warranty covers the water kettle against defects but not glass breakage. --Ann Bieri
