Great Upgrade!
I have been using the Chef's Choice 677 Cordless Electric 1-3/4-Quart Teakettle for 4 years. Worked like a charm but had to replace it when it won't start anymore and has rusted so much from years of use.
The Chef's Choice 681 was a great choice for an upgrade. I have been using it for a week and a half and it works great. Heats water in just two minutes! The design is simply beautiful. It is slightly smaller than the older one I have by just 0.5 liters. I like that this kettle lights up when it's on. The blue light is highly visible unlike the Chef's Choice 677 Cordless Electric 1-3/4-Quart Teakettle where you barely notice the light. Because of the blue light, I haven't burned myself by accidentally touching the kettle. The sound of boiling water isn't as loud as the old one I have too.
It has no plastic interiors, all...
Good choice for an electric kettle
I'm very pleased with this recent replacement kettle.
For decades (both in the UK and USA) I have always had a plastic kettle, as I don't especially like the look of stainless steel appliances. I was never bothered by taste or other effects from using a plastic kettle until my last one started to malfunction. More specifically it would overheat/not shut off - and when this happened there was an extreme taste of plastic in the water, which really made me think about leaching from plastic, so I decided to switch to a stainless kettle and I am glad I did.
It's much harder to find nice electric kettles these days than it used to be. Most of the new ones are complete junk OR extremely expensive gadgets with unnecessary features.
This kettle is solidly made, straighforward and nicely designed. It's not too heavy when full and pours nicely; it's not terribly loud when it boils like many kettles are; the lid has a nice smooth opening mechanism; it's quick; the...
Pleased as punch
I research a long time and finally decided on this kettle. I'm very pleased with my choice. I love the look and find it easy to handle. Also, the top stays open when filling. It heats quickly and the bright blue light showing when heating keeps my attention. We use it at least twice a day and sometimes more. I've had it a month or so and no problems so far.
