Chic kettle with minor defects

Positives:
The design is great, the material a quality image.
The handling is simple and straightforward.
The grip is relatively good in the hand.
The glowing in operating water level indicator is great!
Despite steel is virtually no way to burn (what happy times happened to me ...). On the cover, a plastic application is attached, so you can hook it up, even when the appliance is still hot.
The thermal insulation works well.
The filter is easy to remove and clean.

Negatives:
The kettle is quite noisy (compared to Braun kettle anyway).
The nubs on the bottom designed to prevent slippage of the lower part, constantly dissolve and must be re-used.
After less than four weeks clamped the lid and is much harder to close than at the beginning. He does not seem to sit centered. The WMF customer service has offered to send the unfree kettle and zuzuschicken a new one. This we will do and we hope that it stays a single defect. Otherwise, I'll add to this review ...
The Machine scaled very quickly.
The opening is small, because the cover is not fully open.
The water level indicator is hard to read.
The bottom of the kettle itself is not sitting firmly. Not that he would be solved, but between the black border (or bottom) and the brown case is a groove which is larger and can be moved. There are some of the places visible that should engage ...

If the clamping cover and the not quite stuck housing are resolved through an exchange and not occur again, I'm all very pleased in particular with this device.
I will complete this review.
