Chefman – 1.7L electric kettle – stainless steel customer review
It’s Okay.
Pros: the construction is very sturdy, with a sleek modern feel to it. I like that this has an on/off button, which allows you to simply turn on the kettle and leave it on, rather than having to flip a switch and wait for the mechanism to lock (I had a T-FAL Ophelia if anyone is confused about my prior sentence).
Cons: boiling water takes an excruciatingly long amount of time. My 15-year-old kettle boiled water in about half – 3/4s the time that it takes this kettle to boil water. The outer walls of the of the kettle will definitely burn you if you attempt to handle it after boiling, however, they have a giant sticker that says “don’t touch” at the corner of the kettle. If you are not careful, you might accidentally dry heat the kettle, which affects the integrity of the kettle in the long run. The water level indicator is located behind the handle, on the back of the kettle which makes it a bit annoying to gauge how much water you are boiling, however, as I generally boil a full pot it wasn’t that much of an issue. Finally, if your local water is hard water, then it will stain the kettle much faster than soft water, meaning you will have to clean the kettle weekly/
Overall, I find it a decent kettle, but certainly nothing to write home about.
