I bought this to replace the kettle fuillait that after five years of service. Brand meme, meme color. The news did some junk at first glance, it looks like the "made in china". It works very well & as fast as the old. The color is a little palote, plastic does not connect very well. The rounded bottom and the "on / off" button that lights are not very practical: the old model was therefore better ... In short a little disappointed "MOULINEX" ... I do not know if I should recommend it, but only to heat water, and it does it very well!
