I'm on my 3rd kettle because I like the design. The first two kettles only lasted 1.5 yrs. If this one lasts longer, I might consider buying another one BUT if this one only lasts 1.5 yrs or less, I will buy a higher quality brand that lasts longer. Breville did offer a discount to purchase the 3rd kettle which I appreciated however, the discount only covered the sales tax.
