I love this kettle! It boils a full pot of water in about 20 minutes! You can set it for different temperatures, and it gives suggestions on what that temperature of water would be good for. I.E. coffee, white tea, etc. It keeps water warm for those who like to drink hot tea. It was easy to clean and the directions are easy to follow. My one complaint is that the "whistle" isn't loud enough. So I don't always hear it if I'm in the next room.
