4.0 out of 5 stars Yes, This Is What You Have Been Looking For !!, May 4, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Toastess TGK486 Cordless Glass Kettle, Gray (Kitchen)
Let me set some background on myself first. I am a long time tea drinker and was raised in a country where you drank tea all the time. I consume approximately 4 to 6 cups per day. So you could say I know and enjoy my tea :)

With that said nothing annoys and frustrates me more than the taste of a tea being polluted or ruined by the introduction of foreign flavors. I have owned a number of plastic kettles most of which I am sure based on their age contained BPA and even if they didn't often time gave a strange odor or flavor to the tea. I have also had some great stainless pots but recently (past couple of years) had to revert back to the plastic again.

I decided at Christmas 2010 that I wanted to finally get away from these and was originally looking for an all in one solution. You can imagine my delight when I saw the Breville One Touch Tea Maker and jumped at the chance of this. Long story short I got through 3 of them, the first 1 didn't work, the second and... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars perfect and well built, May 1, 2011

I've been using these water boilers for a few years and most of them have a few of the same problems. This boiler has no problems!

Pros:
-The kettle is large
-it boils fast
-the bottom is flat
-the sides are schott glass(german pyrex)
-The lid is simple open and shut with no locks to break
-The opening is large enough to get my man hands in and clean it

I use this to boil water, heat soup quickly, boil eggs, make chai. Basically if I want anything to come to a boil quickly this is my goto appliance.

Cons:
the measurements are in metric.

4.0 out of 5 stars The automatic shut off will NOT work if the filter is removed!, August 1, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Toastess TGK486 Cordless Glass Kettle, Gray (Kitchen)
Very nice looking and works as advertised as long as you do not remove the plastic filter! It does not give off any taste or odor.

The filter is NOT mean to be removed!!! If you do remove the filter, the kettle will not shut off automatically.

From Toastess Customer Service:
"The automatic shut-off feature is triggered by the accumulation of moisture by the filter,
which should be installed on the lid so that it rests by the spout when the lid is closed."

I like using this kettle but would prefer that it be all glass including the top or if not glass then stainless steel.
All the plastic parts including the filter are made from polypropylene plastic Relatively safe but I would prefer no plastic at all.
