I have a liter of water (20 ° C) filled into the kettle. After 2 minutes and 55 seconds were the 100 ° C is reached, and the device switched off safely and reliably.
The maximum capacity of the unit is 1.7 liters. The lid can be flipped by a switch on the back upwards. The front of the spout sits a scale filter, one can refer to clean also.
The black handle back is sufficiently large, the kettle can be good wearing it. The water level indicator is placed right in front of the handle. One must always look a little inclined it to read the scale. It is possible, but it would have been better to place the scale is not exactly in front of the handle.
Despite my great men hands I could grasp the handle well and had about one centimeter distance from the water level indicator. Usually I do not even umgreife the handle, but hold him virtually only on the two outer sides. Therefore, the device is well usable for me personally. Nevertheless, I want to point out a defect which should be resolved constructively necessarily: The water scale is very warm or hot: Would you now get with your fingers-better with his knuckles when grasping the Griffes- contact, this could lead to burns. It could be then that the carrier wegschleudert the just heated water besides cooker uncontrollably.
The base is also black. The cable length is almost exactly 74 centimeters. Not needed cable can be rolled up underneath the base. The base has three small rubber feet. This is the entire unit well and pretty slip on the granite countertop.
The kettle is placed only in a nose on the station and therefore gets power. He can be rotated 360 °.
Because of the newly identified the absence of a possible risk of burning the unit is the old slogan from A- E- experience G ut unfortunately can no longer cope.
