I suggest the first page on the manual, so is there: "Before the first operation of the iron, please read the safety instructions ..." Not bad - maybe wanted us started to point out that the device during cooking water from outside is so hot like an iron .... The fact is that the elegant appearance is quite poorly insulated, and so is not only a threat to children's hands from the outside, but I myself am already come with the arm in unpleasant confrontation with the kettle ,
The already several times mentioned position of the level below the handle is attached impractical and unwise, in fact - does not affect me now so strong, because I always eingieße the water always feeling down. Especially as the level indicator until a pint of something correctly, but also including, for example, the content of a coffee cup anyway can be hot.
The opening will pops up with a push of a button upwards perceived by some to be too small, because you can clean the machine from the inside worse. Now that for me only filtered water comes into the unit, I do not know what I should clean the inside of the kettle. And if time there arise limescale, I will treat them with citric acid. But I do not have in there by hand.
As for the speed of water boiling, so I have my "old" brown "with 2200 W tested against this with a stopwatch for a pint of tap water (room temperature - from water filters) are created the Brown 1:52 and the new AEG 1.: 27 Therefore he is really fast. In what is "paid" in the daily routines in the kitchen makes the positive, everyone must decide for themselves.
I welcome the outpouring. Nothing goes down the kettle, and you can selectively fill small teacups so.
To chic design also heard yet that the device has a "one-switch" with a modern-looking LED.
My conclusion: A for the price not entirely thought through kettle that does what it should - namely boil water fairly quickly. Singel households attach importance to appearance and design, may like to find a new beautiful kitchen helpers here. Households with children should play it safe no. And select a device that is not so hot from the outside!
