I am so glad that i got this kettle. Not only does it look absolutely fabulous, but it brings style to my kitchen. It has different uses for different kinds of tea, and i love the strainer that comes with it for making herbal teas. The buttons are touch screen, and you can change the temperature of the water to suit. It also has a feature to keep the water at the desired temperature, which saves boiling again. I will be getting the rest of the attentiv range for my kitchen to match, absolutely in love.
