I have the kettle ordered due to the many positive reviews and can only agree with this: a great device, the scores visually and qualitatively. Very positive I feel that the kettle is very quiet. Unfortunately, he is compared to my plastic predecessor from Grundig considerably slower: At full inflation (1.7 liters) needed my Grundig about 3:30 min. during Ottoni about 5 minutes. needs. The most important criterion for me, however, that in the inner part and lid, no plastic is (with the exception of the lid knob), which I like to take into account that an externally visible water level indicator is missing and the unit is hot on the outside (which is the case with every stainless steel kettle ). The sieve of metal I dazubestellt offers by email. The delivery was made by UPS within two days and in the six packets of simple, small coffee spoons were settled. I am completely satisfied and I hope that the device lasts long and the inside does not rust. Thus the high price was justified.
