The kettle is fine. But it is appropriate to pay attention before connecting to the mains when you receive it. For my part, I wanted to check that the voltage selector beneath the kettle was 230Volts and took me well because it was set to 120 volts. Without that, I could already say goodbye to this kettle that has a heating resistor would burnt. Another thing, the body of the kettle heats up when it is used. What to normal priori because it is all plastic.
