My husband bought this for my birthday in early December 2018, and I couldn’t be happier with the purchase! I have used It nearly everyday and it is wonderful, providing hot water in minutes for all my tasty teas. I thought I loved coffee (been having our Cuisinart grind and brew coffee machine for years) but this tea kettle is making me love tea more. I don’t have all the parts of the coffee pot to clean! Overall this kettle is definitely worth the money!
