Panasonic NC-EH40PC 4.1-Quart Electric Thermo Pot Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I love my thermo pot. I use it everyday. I used to boil water in the microwave prior to having this pot. It used to take 2-3 mins for each cup of water. Great quality. It saves me so much time,especially in the morning when I need to rush out the door with a hot mug of tea.
To avoid build-up in the pot, I fill it with purified water instead of tap water. I've had it for several months and I haven't had to clean out any deposits yet.

Aroma AWK-116SB Stainless-Steel 2-Liter Electric Water Kettle Review

Aroma AWK-116SB Stainless-Steel 2-Liter Electric Water Kettle
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Happy with the beautiful design and large size. Most electric kettles have smaller capacity. However, my previous Krups was faster. It takes a little too long to automatically shut-off from the time the water is boiling and I sometimes turn it off myself. It also takes longer than my old Krups to boil water (manufacturer says 1 minute per cup). On the other hand, the outside heats a lot less than other stainless steal kettles, and because of the design, you're less likely to get burned. The cord is long enough, but I don't worry about it because it's attached to the base, not to the kettle itself. Easy opening the lead (just press the top button), and the filter seems easy enough to replace. I would have given it 5 stars if it was heating and shutting off faster, but overall, I'm very happy with the product.

A useful kitchen or home-office companion, this electric kettle quickly brings up to 2 liters of water to a rolling boil. Simply press the push-button lid to fill at the sink, return the kettle to its 360-degree base, and flip on the power switch. Once the water inside has reached a full boil, the unit will shut off automatically for safety and peace of mind. Use boiled water from the kettle to make anything from hot tea, instant coffee, and hot cocoa to instant oatmeal, noodles, baby formula, and more. The cordless unit lifts off its power base and provides a generous stay-cool open handle and an elegantly curved drip-free spout for gracious serving. Other highlights include a water window with measuring marks, boil-dry protection, an easy-to-clean removable decalcification filter that keeps particles out of the water, and cord storage with a cord-length adjustment option to keep countertops looking tidy. The unit should be hand washed only and a user manual comes included. Beautifully housed in brushed stainless steel, the electric water kettle measures approximately 4-3/5 by 7-1/5 by 8-2/7 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.

Aroma AAP-325W 3-Liter Electric Pump Air Pot, White Review

Aroma AAP-325W 3-Liter Electric Pump Air Pot, White
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Having grown up in a household with a hot water tap, I'm used to having near-boiling water available at all times - except on Shabbat, when, a rabbi told my mother, the tap could not be used (years later, a different rabbi, who had a different understanding of how the technology worked, told me it is permissible!). So once I was on my own, some sort of urn or electric pump pot was a must. I bought this one to replace an old one that died, and am pleasantly surprised by the new features, including the instant dispense button and switch (although they can't be used on Shabbat either, as they make a light go on, but you can still pump out water by pressing the original spot), and the concave front, which allows your cup or teapot to nestle up close. The price is right, the unit works, and my only concern is that I'll run out of water before Shabbat is over! In fact, I just bought another one as a Mother's Day gift and presented it today (now it can be told!).

Serve hot beverages to a crowd or keep hot water available for everyday use with this electric dispensing pot. It quickly boils up to 3 liters of hot water and works great for instant coffee, tea, hot chocolate, instant soup, oatmeal, and much more. The unit keeps the water hot for hours and offers three different dispensing options--press the "automatic dispenser" button, press down on the manual pressure pump, or push up on the dispensing switch located behind the spout for cup-activated water dispensing. For safety, the appliance provides a cool-touch exterior, locking lid, and detachable magnetic cord. Other highlights include an easy-to-read water-level window, "heat" and "warm" indicator lights, "unlock" and "reboil" functions, and a comfortable carrying handle. The electric hot-water dispensing pot measures 10-1/2 by 10-1/2 by 12-1/4 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.

West Bend 53783 1-3/4-Quart Cordless Water Kettle, Black Review

West Bend 53783 1-3/4-Quart Cordless Water Kettle, Black
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
If your an expat or just an anglophile and you are left wondering, "Why doesn't America embrace the electric kettle?!" then this is the item for you. Sleek and aptly priced.
I don't know why you'd pay around $50 for something that just heats water... brand loyalty? I wouldn't pay the extra $15-$30 just for the flat metal plate that the Braun or Philips has. (The West Bend kettle has a metal coil to heat up the water: Yes, you have to clean the coiled versions, but it's exactly the same as cleaning out a coffee maker... white vinegar once in a blue moon. Hey, the Brits and the Irish don't mind the coil, why should I?)
The stouter version of this I think is too small, unless you live alone and don't drink that much tea/coffee/cocoa. Between us, my brother and I drink six to eight cups of tea a day, plus hot cereal on top of that and this kettle is more than sufficient (1.7 liters).
Some more good things:
It turns of automatically after it comes to a roaring boil.
See-through panel lets you see the water level.
So quiet, you wouldn't know it's on...
That's why it has a little red light that goes on.
Has a locking top so as to avoid spills.
The black fits in with my kitchen's decor.
It also comes in handy for when I'm cooking, using up all the burners and need just a bit of hot water, quickly. Or even if I am cooking rice or pasta, it's easier to heat up the water in the electric kettle and then pour it into the pot on the stove.
Two complaints: The cord is thick and not very flexible (the cord itself is about two feet). I have this plugged into the same outlet as my microwave and cannot use the two at the same time or else I'll have a circuit short... but then again, whoever remodeled the kitchen did a bad job on the electicity.
Makes a great present for any hot beverage lover or college student.

Sophisticated in design yet practical for everyday use, this 1500-watt electric kettle boils up to 1-3/4 quarts of water quickly and quietly for coffee, tea, instant soups, and more. The unit features water-level marks in quarts and liters, a washable filter, and a removable anti-scale screen, which must be in place when heating. For convenience, the unit is designed with an "on/off" switch and a signal light, as well as automatic shutoff and boil-dry protection. Its concealed heating element and cool-touch exterior and handle provide added safety. The kettle is cordless for portability with cord storage in its base for tidy countertops. Turn the kettle off, unplug it, and allow it to cool completely before cleaning. The exterior of the kettle can be wiped clean with a damp cloth. Do not immerse the kettle, base, cord, plugs, or other electric parts in water. The water kettle measures approximately 9 by 10 by 6 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.

Rival 4071-WN 32-Ounce Hot Pot Express Review

Rival 4071-WN 32-Ounce Hot Pot Express
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I bought one of these close to ten years ago and it's still going strong, though I've taken it on three cross-country trips, countless weekend getaways and even to Guatemala.
Why? First, I don't like using hotel/motel coffee units -- who knows how clean their innards are? This holds more liquid, is easy to clean, and I know where it's been!
Second, it's useful for more than just heating water. I once took my daughter to a nice Disneyland hotel for four days, and did all our cooking in this little pot because food was so pricey. I heated soup, ramen, veggies, all kinds of things... and we actually ate well (though simply) the whole time.
Other reviewers have noted that it doesn't have auto shut-off. That's a good point, and it's a bit of a pain, particularly when you're as forgetful as I am. But the water always boils loudly enough that I hear it. Could be a problem in everyday use if you are wandering from room to room; fine for a motel.
The flip side is being able to adjust the heat level, which I don't think you could do if the unit shut off automatically. I've found that VERY handy for things that need a gentle heat, and use that feature a lot.
Power cord is frustratingly short, but necessarily so for safety reasons.
Naturally, anything that holds 32 oz. of water is a little bulky, but when I put it in my suitcase I just jam socks and breakables into it, so it ends up taking less room than you'd think. You can snap the top off, which is also a help when packing it. It's fairly lightweight.
The reason I'm back at this page is that my daughter just went to college and took the pot with her. I need a replacement for my travels without her! I was amazed to find the same pot is still being sold after all these years. That's probably a good sign about its quality in an era when things get redesigned every year.
At this price, if it lasted a year or two of steady use, I think I'd still be happy.

Aroma AWK-115S Hot H20 X-Press 1-1/2-Liter Cordless Water Kettle Review

Aroma AWK-115S Hot H20 X-Press 1-1/2-Liter Cordless Water Kettle
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
[Originally review January 2009 (3 stars), Updated July 2010]
We bought one of these for our home and liked it so much I got another for my office. It is a quick safe way to boil water. It works much better than our teapot on our conventional stove and you can leave the room without worry about all the water boiling out and a possible fire.
It is so efficient that we often use it to heat up water before putting it in a pan on the stove. It is much faster. When we are making pasta we will put a small amount of water in a large pan and fill the teapot. The water in the pot is boiling before the water on the stove. The pot is light, even when full, and has no aftertaste like I have read some of the plastic ones do.
HOWEVER, we had owned our home pot for less than six months when the 'on' switch broke off. The pot was still usable, but you have to reach in and activate it with a fingernail. It was under limited warranty, but that involved mailing it to San Diego at our own cost and sending them a check for $8 to have it returned. Including the time and materials to package it up and then drive to the post office and have it gone for 2-4 weeks wasn't worth the effort.
I have concluded we just got a lemon. Because this happened and the warranty policy was so cumbersome, I originally gave this 3 stars. But our other one is working fine and the broken piece has turned out to be a small inconvenience, so I have revised my rating to 4.6, rounding up to 5.

Attractively housed in polished stainless steel, this electric hot-water kettle makes a striking presence on any kitchen counter or buffet. Use it to quickly bring up to 1-1/2 liters of water to a rolling boil for making anything from tea, instant coffee, and hot cocoa to oatmeal, instant soup, noodles, and more. The kettle lifts off its 360-degree swivel base for easy filling at the sink or for graceful serving without the hassle of a power cord; it can also be returned to its power source from any direction--great for right- and left-handed users. For safety, the kettle shuts itself off automatically once the water has reached a boil--no need to worry about it boiling dry. Other highlights include a water-level indicator, a comfortable stay-cool handle, a nondrip pouring spout, a flip-back lid for convenient filling or cleaning, and a removable spout filter to ensure the purest results. The cordless electric kettle measures approximately 8 by 8 by 9 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.

Aroma AWK-160SB Pasta Plus Water Kettle and Noodle Cooker Review

I use this as a water kettle only currently, and I really like it so far. I've looked for a long time for an electric kettle that allows the water not to contact any plastic, and this kettle has this exact feature -- the interior is completely metal although the lid is plastic, but you don't have to use the lid if you don't want to. I also like the way the heating element is completely sealed and that the kettle detaches from the base (the cordless feature). This kettle's construction appear to be very good quality, and it has a 1-year warranty. Its water kettle function works great -- it boils 1 liter of cold water in about 5 minutes. It being a noodle cooker/ soup warmer is a cool feature that I might use one day. This item also comes with a collander and a cute little metal pasta fork to aid you with cooking noodles. I'm very glad I found this kettle.

This Electric Kettle is quite simple without any frills. For the price, it does what it claims to do. It boils water quickly , the water level is easy to see and has the auto-shut off feature. I have used it reliably to boil water for tea, oatmeal etc. The water is quite hot, so use caution when pouring it out. The lid , can sometimes be hard to close & open.
