We bought one of these for our home and liked it so much I got another for my office. It is a quick safe way to boil water. It works much better than our teapot on our conventional stove and you can leave the room without worry about all the water boiling out and a possible fire.
It is so efficient that we often use it to heat up water before putting it in a pan on the stove. It is much faster. When we are making pasta we will put a small amount of water in a large pan and fill the teapot. The water in the pot is boiling before the water on the stove. The pot is light, even when full, and has no aftertaste like I have read some of the plastic ones do.
HOWEVER, we had owned our home pot for less than six months when the 'on' switch broke off. The pot was still usable, but you have to reach in and activate it with a fingernail. It was under limited warranty, but that involved mailing it to San Diego at our own cost and sending them a check for $8 to have it returned. Including the time and materials to package it up and then drive to the post office and have it gone for 2-4 weeks wasn't worth the effort.
I have concluded we just got a lemon. Because this happened and the warranty policy was so cumbersome, I originally gave this 3 stars. But our other one is working fine and the broken piece has turned out to be a small inconvenience, so I have revised my rating to 4.6, rounding up to 5.

Attractively housed in polished stainless steel, this electric hot-water kettle makes a striking presence on any kitchen counter or buffet. Use it to quickly bring up to 1-1/2 liters of water to a rolling boil for making anything from tea, instant coffee, and hot cocoa to oatmeal, instant soup, noodles, and more. The kettle lifts off its 360-degree swivel base for easy filling at the sink or for graceful serving without the hassle of a power cord; it can also be returned to its power source from any direction--great for right- and left-handed users. For safety, the kettle shuts itself off automatically once the water has reached a boil--no need to worry about it boiling dry. Other highlights include a water-level indicator, a comfortable stay-cool handle, a nondrip pouring spout, a flip-back lid for convenient filling or cleaning, and a removable spout filter to ensure the purest results. The cordless electric kettle measures approximately 8 by 8 by 9 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.
