This pot serves my purposes completely.  It replaces my old tea kettle which had seen its better days.  It has worked well to date (a couple of months).  I use it almost every morning to make coffee and many evenings to make tea.  
My only complaint is that the stop control is marked "Start" (which function it also performs). I usually do not use the temperature controls below "Boil" because all the teas I like recommend the higher temperature. The "finished" beep sound is a little soft for me.  I rarely use the keep warm feature, but I can see it might be helpful to others with multiple members in the family wanting their coffee or tea at slightly different times as they arrive for breakfast or some other snack or meal.
