BLACK+DECKER 1.7L Cordless Electric Kettle, KE1700SD, Rapid Boil, Auto Shutoff, Stainless Steel

Full pot boils in about 6 minutes. I bought it for 15.00/used like new because the last 3 kettles I had died within a year or less. They were off-brands. I know from experience that Black and Decker has amazing customer service, so I'm not worried about any problems. This kettle feels solid. The base could be a little heavier so it would stay in place, but that's also true of all the ones I've had before. The style is a little retro mod, which I like. There's no silicone grippy bit on the lid, so if your fingers are wet, it can be a little tricky to remove. I do like that there is no hinge on the lid. The hinged lids can be more difficult to clean. Notes on care: boil some vinegar in it when you see whitish deposits. Those deposits are the minerals from yout tap water. They will flake off and make your hot beverage look yucky if you don't run some vinegar regularly. If you use bottled or distilled water, you won't get the deposits. Also, wipe it down with vinegar to get the white water spots off the outside. Good kettle, good price, good company.

Awesome electric kettle, sturdy and boils water fast!

It is a kettle and it works. It makes hot water. Capacity is larger than our last yet we rarely boil a full pot. In 3 weeks with everyday use so far no problems. We wanted a fully metal unit and this is as close as we could come, there is some plastic inside the unit, as well as the lid so we needed to compromise. Boils the water fairly fast which is fine, pours slower than our previous kettle so slightly aggravating but that is life. Overall a good kettle. PS I rarely give any product a 5 star rating.

I’m really impressed with the BLACK+DECKER 1.7L Cordless Electric Kettle! It boils water super fast—way quicker than my stovetop—and the auto shutoff and boil dry protection are great for peace of mind. The cord-free pouring is super convenient, and I love the sleek stainless steel design. It’s perfect for busy mornings when I need my water fast. Highly recommend!

It does boil water :). It has the shortest cord of any appliance I have ever owned. I had to rearrange some things in my kitchen to get it near an outlet. The base is extremely unstable. There are literally no bells or whistles- my old one would ding when the water boiled. There is no indicator light to tell you if it is on. This is the bare minimum. I will keep it, but it's not a great product.

Excelente electrodoméstico, no se pierde la plata con estas marcas .

Let me start off by saying that this is not a bad deal on an electric kettle. It works fine and it's not too expensive. I bought this to replace my old Black & Decker Electric Kettle that finally quit working after 7 years. In comparison, there are several downfalls to the new model. The old one had a "window" on the side where I could see the fill line. The new one has a fill line, but it's inside the kettle, no window. Plus it's not very clear to see even when looking straight down into it. The cord is noticeably shorter. Might even be less than half the length of the old cord. I can't state this for a fact because I've never actually timed the old one, but the new one seems to take quite a bit longer to heat up the water. It could just be my mind playing tricks on me, but it seems like nearly twice as long. So, like I said, not a bad deal, but not quite as good as it's predecessor. There are other electric kettles on Amazon that have the window on the side for the water level etc, but I was happy with my old Black & Decker kettle so I gave this one a try. Not incredibly disappointed by any means, but I kinda wish I'd given one of the others a try.

Great water heater, gets really hot.

Justo lo que andaba buscando

Me gusta mucho la forma en que vierte el agua, no se derrama. Se calienta en unos 6 minutos. La tapa es completamente desmontable. Prefiero la tapa adjunta que se levanta. Además, no tiene una luz indicadora que muestra que está encendida. También tiene tres insertos de plástico duro que se usan como niveles para la cantidad de agua necesaria para hasta 5 tazas de café. Es realmente difícil de quitar, así que lo dejé allí.

Me encanto...
