Good, high-priced kettle

The company is a resident of the Braun company Taunus certainly a term for household appliances with the title German workmanship. The products in the ever-classic simple design convey the often somewhat conservative buyers the expected quality standards, but move but also in a higher price segment. Critics feel just the Braun design as weichgespühlt and usual.

When Braun WK500 I can not confirm this impression. The device looks modern and timeless and is expected to in the offered colors (white / gray or black) into any kitchen integrate.

The stove itself seems high to justify the above, high quality standards. The handling itself is correspondingly simple and really needs no further explanation, the positive characteristics of the other reviews I can therefore only confirm.

- 360 ° base with cord storage
- Indicator light & water level indicator
- Removable decalcification filter
- Release of the lid

In practice, the kettle covered by the heating coil is very easy to clean. The advertising promises of the 35-second quick heating, however, is superfluous eyewash and refers to only 200ml water capacity. Under full load (1,7l) the matter in the test takes less than four minute drive.

Alternatively, I recommend this device: Clatronic WK 2950 Kettle 1.7 L 360 ° wirelessly with white lighting
- This is the kettle Braun fairly equal in all areas.

Conclusion: the cross-section of quality / performance / purchase price a reasonable average power. No more, no less.
