Our many years old Russel-kettle was us become too loud. With him, the heating coil was outside the water area, ie below the base plate. Thus, the heat transfer is more difficult in the water. There resultant overheating and resonance formation can the loud, cause sometimes very annoying sound! The new Russell-cooker is excellent in comparison: Spiral is in the water sector: thus comparable very low noise. The temperature-preset option, eg to 95 ° C reduces my opinion very much the emergence of cold deposits. Overall I would recommend the very maker: quietly and quickly, clearly. My family and of course I also have high zuftrieden! So: Well I would have because of my very positive opinion a "commission" of Russel earned (of course only: fun Comment).
