Rated 3 out of 5 by green-tea-drinker from Good looking, stainless steel, lost features I bought this kettle at a Best Buy store yesterday, for the same price it was on this website. I chose this model because I own the same type of a kettle, by KitchenAid, which I bought maybe a decade ago or more. That original kettle was so good that when I saw this one, I just went ahead and picked it up, thinking that I would get a more modern version of the one I had, which started showing its age, as the handle was getting wobbly, the lid spring was gone, etc. Right after plugging the kettle in, I realized that KitchenAid didn't actually modernize the design and the implementation, but rather removed many of the features I enjoyed in the original kettle so much. The water gauge in the original model was very visible and clearly shows the water level in the kettle, while the new one is all but invisible, so one has to really stare at it to figure out how much water there is. Moreover, the old kettle had LEDs inside, so once the kettle was on, the water level was easy to see, even in dim lighting. One needs a flashlight now to see how much water is in the new kettle. The temperature gauge in the original kettle was clear and precise - just shows you the current water temperature. The new kettle has a slider with poorly visible small temperature markings, starting from 50C, with the extra 95C at the end, so if you used to make your tea at 92C, now somewhere between 80C and 90C-95C will have to do. The original kettle had two operating modes - boiling water and keeping water the temperature at some level. When I pressed the ON button, the water was boiled. When I pressed the heating button, it was kept at the temperature selected by the +/- buttons - doesn't get any more straightforward than this. The new kettle has a single gauge/slider, which means if one forgot to push it to 100C every time fresh water was added, it will not be boiled, just heated up to whatever setting it's at. As a side note, KitchenAid's Marketing Department needs to revisit the definition of "boiling" and this bit from the kettle description - "quickly and quietly boil to the temperature you need". The water boils at one temperature - 100C, and the way the temperature slider is designed, one cannot even say whether their tap water was boiled or just heated up. Turning the kettle on in the original kettle was a straightforward button push - one could do it with one hand because the pressure was applied down, against the base. The new kettle has the button on the side, so the kettle will likely move as the button is pushed and the first instinctive reaction I had when it happened was to hold the kettle on the other side, which is a bad idea because it gets quite hot. Get into the habit of holding the base when pushing the power button to avoid this. So, as far as kettles go, this is a good kettle - stainless steel, filter, detachable from the base, being main strengths. However, the new model clearly went through some cost-cutting design measures, while keeping the product price the same. There was one inconvenience in the original kettle in that I had to change 2x AA batteries in the kettle every few years, and it required a screwdriver, so this part could be improved indeed, but that bit and the lid spring were the only features that could be improved in the original design. Otherwise it was one of the best kettles I owned. I will keep the new kettle - it does boil water and looks good and I will adapt to all these little inconveniences, but it just makes me sad that all this design goodness was thrown away by some boardroom people who probably never made a cup of tea in their life.
