Hamilton Beach 40865 Glass Electric Kettle, 1.7-Liter What users say about the product?:
- After reading so many reviews of people concerned about plastic in contact with water, I decided to call Hamilton Beach 40865 Glass Electric Kettle 1.7-Liter directly and investigate the matter. Simply stated, Hamilton Beach doesn’t use any harmful materials thats come in direct contact with water. After using the kettle twice a day for a month, I’m very satisfied with the product.
- At last a reasonable alternative for heating water in the microwave! It takes a little longer to get to the same temperature, but generally only a few seconds. I’m amazed at how fast water boils in this kettle! One thing I didn’t count on – my tea actually tastes better when the water isn’t nuked. The footprint of the kettle is not very big, so it fits in a small space on my counter. And the blue light when it is heating is quite pleasant. Also, it’s much quieter than the microwave! A very nice and handy addition to my kitchen!
- Love this Hamilton Beach 40865 Glass Electric Kettle 1.7-Liter so far, no real complaints. Some of the plastic pieces feel kind of cheap but overall I’m happy with it.Works Well and Boils in 45sec Easy to use and good looking design Good Build Quality,but mine did have one very small rust spot Blue LED Fake “Burner” is nice touch and a good safety feature.
- Bought this nearly a year ago so I could make aeropress coffee at work because K-cup coffee is awful and I deserve better. As do you. Put it in the staff kitchen where it is used several times a day by me and coworkers. It has stood up to this pretty heavy-duty use admirably. It boils water quickly and, even after a year, I still think the blue LEDs are cool. Exceptional value for the money.
