It boils water. And it looks red. Yay

Update: the tea filter broke and thus the auto shutoff as well (fix this with a towel on the top of the kettle). There’s a fragile plastic rod that attaches to either a string or a spring that controls the tea filter’s mounting. It broke for me and just flopped downwards instead of shutting the kettle. Managed to get a replacement, but I wouldn’t get this exact model.

    I recently picked up the same kind at a thrift store. Probably an older version. It’s great, but I don’t like that it beeps… ;-;

      We’ve had an electric kettle for a while, and when it’s done it just clicks off. It’s the perfect amount of noise that I now have a Pavlovian response to haha

        Same, but sometimes the other thing I’m doing is waiting for it to boil so I don’t chance waking up my flatmate.
