The device looks good, made pretty black with matt silver. The scale for the amount of water is located on both sides, so you can easily read as either hand. The lid opens by pressing the black button in the center, there is a small strainer in the spout for lime. But I would take only filtered water (eg Brita), everything else is quickly inside calcified, characterized gray and ugly. The part smelled pretty new to plastic, I cooked only once three full charges and thrown away, now it's ok. Overall, therefore, recommended.
