the Luxe smart kettle is really neat.  it has 5 temperature settings depending on what you want to brew, Green tea ; 175 F, Oolong tea; 195 F, French press coffee; 200 F , good ole Black tea; 205 F and Boil ; 212 F .  mostly I'll use the black tea, French Press coffee or Boil if i want to make a cup of noodles for lunch or Oatmeal for breakfast.  i like the design where the base comes away from the pot.  i don't have to worry about the cord getting tangles
