Nostalgia RWK150AQ Retro Stainless Steel electric water kettle review
Cute retro look AND works great too!
I love this! I’ve used it way more than I thought I would, it’s better than the standard teapot used on the oven. I’ve used it every night for a month, sometimes twice or three times a day. I love they ability to see how much water has been put in, the temperature of the water and when the machine is on: the lever turns red. It automatically clicks off when the water is hot enough, so I don’t worry about forgetting the kettle is on! The color is beautiful and the retro look matches my kitchen perfectly. Everyone that comes over comments how beautiful it is (or asks what it is! haha and then they think it’s very cool when I explain how it works)
All in all, I’m very pleased and would purchase again if I had to, and perhaps will buy more as gifts for friends and family.
