Opening the lid do not like it so far, because I need a second hand for opening. With my old kettle I could do to hold and opening by snap with one hand. It is because this is a security cover.
You can see the water level in a transparent tube on Henkel. This can be seen well. The light in the ON state is not very bright yellow just below the power button. A great signal has not.
The pouring is exemplary and perfect. The water jet is bundled into the cup, and really only in the cup or pot. Not a drop, nothing.
The heating coil is hidden. In the instruction manual is a text that can form moisture may appear on the base. This is steam which trigger the automatic switch off. He settles then, and escapes through the vents under the kettle. This can lead to discoloration of the floor. This is new in the series of all kettle that I had. Whether this beauty will suffer remains to be seen over time.
The cable can be wound up on the underside of the heating element. However, the cable is not very long, so there's not much to wrap.
The design has to be honest me a bit disappointed when unpacking. The kettle is made of stainless steel with plastic applications. Now the color is really a matter of taste, but dark blue with black base and black heating element but something sad has se. I would have liked there rather glossy blue or something fresh or Bright.
A solid kettle. The yellow warning light that something sad color and the fact that I need a second hand to open the lid can forgive me good four star. I had flirted to buy me the toaster this series to me but since the color is too sad, I let it be dear.
