I have just bought this electric kettle (in brushed stainless steel) and I confess I chose it for the design. I love it. Works well too, so far. Since it's so cute... I was wondering whether I could use it for actually steeping loose tea, after the water boils, and serve too. Is this a no-no? Is this going to affect the kettle or make the cleaning difficult? I would appreciate any advice in this regard, thanks! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
