Heat fast and it shows a different color for different temps as it is heating up. Love this kettle. I really don\’t know why it took me so long to decide to buy it. So happy I did.

When I use my cold refrigerator water pitcher to fill it, the kettle makes hot/boiled water in no time. It doesn’t take as long as heating water in the microwave or stove top, and it’s convenient to use for cooking when I need hot/boiled water to add to a recipe. I went through too many coffee makers in the past two years and decided to go back to instant coffee. This kettle gives me hot water in about 2 minutes, not much more time than it takes for me to put the coffee, creamer and sugar in my cup. There is a line. It is easy to fill because the lid stays in place. Unless you dump the water quickly, it will dribble and splash a bit. The lights look cool, but they make it easy to see the temp of the water. When heating water for coffee, I shut it off manually before it reaches the light green lights. It’s at a rolling boil when the red lights are on. The kettle is warm on the outside, but not hot enough to burn you if you touch it. The underside of the kettle doesn’t get hot, so you don’t have to worry about setting it on the table or countertop. If you have it filled above the minimum line, it will shut off on it’s own after 30-90 seconds. It took 37 seconds for mine to shut off. If you want hot or boiling water quickly, this kettle is for you. None of the cons I’ve noted are dealbreakers. It is glass, so you have to be careful not to bang it on the counter or sink. When handling it. I like that I can see the water and not the kettle. It is a bit heavy for someone who is older or has other limitations. It’s easy to handle, so I don’t think it’s an issue for most people. Some reviewers have said that if you tilt the pot in that direction, it will leak water from the on/off switch. That doesn’t seem like a good feature. There is condensation between the glass walls. I don’t know if that’s normal or not. I don’t recommend putting cold water into a hot glass pitcher if you’ve already heated some water. I don’t know if this type of glass can take that shock, but I’d let it cool first or use warm/hot tap water to refill it. I have to say that I’m very happy with my purchase, even though I haven’t had the kettle long enough to determine how well it will hold up. There is a review for the Hamilton Beach Double Wall Kettle. There is a 7 liter capacity with a base and accent.

I just got the 1. The kettle is by Hamilton Beach. This kettle is amazing. It holds a lot of water and has a sleek design. The glass walls on the kettle make it easy to see how much water is in the kettle. There is a led light ring around the base of the kettle. There is an automatic turn off after the water is boiling. It can boil in less than 4 minutes. I use this kettle for a lot of things, like boiling water for soup, boiling water to put in the pressure cooker, or cooking oatmeal. We’ll use this kettle when we go camping.

We love the Hamilton Beach 1. There are 7 electric kettles. The beach is called The Hamilton Beach. My morning teas and hot cocoas heat up quickly with the 7 LED Electric Kettle. If we want to watch the water heat up, we can use the clear kettle. When the process of heating is complete, the kettle has a cool indicator that glows and an auto shutoff that gives you peace of mind. The kettle can be used as a serving pitcher as it sits on the heating unit stand. He makes his own hot cocoa with this kettle, and he loves it. Win for me!
