Fast Breeder

Just 4.5 minutes needs of EWA7300 of AEG in the test to the 1.7 liters of cold water - which he sums up - to bring to a boil before the automatic shutdown in the shining power switch under the clear-to-read water level indicator can snap back. That's faster than my age Siemens kettle. Responsible for the 3000 Watt.

Can anyone tell what is power saving with such energy guzzlers actually someone - shorter time with more power or less power over a longer period?
Anyway: Who buys a kettle, know that this product category consumes relatively much power. It's fast, the water heater, it is nice for my taste too - ensures the simple design and the brushed stainless steel case. That the base station is small - namely just as extensively as the pot - is indeed on the product page emphasized ("Space-Saving and beautifully designed as small base station"), is for me but a matter of course. I've never had a kettle, where it was different - Marketing blah.

The only thing I do not like the plastic used: the boring gray acts mainly on the cover primitive and inferior quality. The impression is reinforced by the fact that the lid can be indeed a pressure to open an in-handle knob with one hand, the pressure point is not defined so clean and the lid pops open not immediately each time. For me, also not understandable why the lid only opens to about 80 degrees, which must be made by hand 90 degree position, however with a small Einraster.

Overall, for me a good, chic and faster cooker, but receives a star deduction by small discrepancies.
