Kettle boils water not very fast, but economical use of electricity and thanks to its small power will be able to operate properly even in older homes with poor wiring. The variation in temperature in different modes within the normal range, at high temperatures, everything is almost perfect, the difference between the stated and actual temperature ~ 1 °, the largest at low temperatures – almost 5 °.
Interesting set of temperatures, such values are not found in every device, here each clearly linked to the preparation of a specific drink.
OPERATING FEATURES
Boiling or heating is activated by two sensor-buttons: Temperature and Start. When you press the temperature button the display starts flashing, after the start of heating the display stays on. Once the water boils, the kettle automatically shuts off, with a quiet triple beep. The backlight of the Temperature button is not lit. The Backlight of the Start Button Keeps Blinking. After 1 minute, all the lights on the control panel turn off.
During boiling, the kettle body at the bottom circumference is illuminated with a gentle blue, which adds a little magic to the process.
You can activate the temperature maintenance function in two ways. In the first case, you first heat the water to the set temperature. Then press the temperature button. In the second case you immediately program the heating with further temperature maintenance. The heating function switches off after an hour in both cases.
DESIGN FEATURES
Glass kettle with plastic handle and lid. The lid opens when you press the button. An interesting feature: on the bottom of the base of this kettle is no place for winding the cord.
The kettle has a glass nose. Because of its design, you have to be careful when pouring water into the cup to avoid water spillage. The handle is wide, comfortable, plastic, does not slip even in the wet hand.
Because the body is made of glass, there is no need for display windows, the marks are applied directly on the body.
DESIGN
Glass kettles always look very attractive and a little mysterious. Watching the process of boiling water is quite interesting. Additional charm is given by the possibility of a slight glow when the water is boiling. At nightfall, it turns the kettle into a night light, illuminating the kitchen with a pleasant light, and the water in this case looks very unusual. The only BUT – the magic ends if the kettle is dirty, and in conditions of our hard water the walls of the kettle get dirty very quickly. Therefore, if you have decided to buy a glass appliance, then be prepared to clean it from limescale about once a month.
BENEFITS
Easy control at an affordable price and a wide range of temperature modes – a good combination that allows you to hope for success. The backlighting will also appeal to most potential buyers.
LIMITATIONS
Not the most convenient spout design.
