Electric Kettle Recommendation

Undertoad · 03-06-2017, 08:22 PM

The Brits laugh at our electric kettles, because theirs are wired for 220 and all of them can boil water in 3 minutes...

Both The Sweethome and Serious Eats say the same thing: Cuisinart CPK-17. They say it boils a liter of water in just over 4 minutes.

Now that I have looked for this, I want one.

We have a Philips and it works fine. You put a cup or two in for one cup of tea and it boils fast. You fill the whole pot to the top, and it takes much longer. So if you are one person, it doesn't matter much.
