BLACK+DECKER 1.7L Cordless Electric Kettle, KE1560W, Premium Texture, Water Window, Rapid Boil, Auto Shutoff, White

Really surprised at how great this little kettle is and wonder why I didn’t purchase one sooner. This is my first electric kettle and I am very happy with it! It boils water extremely fast and is attractive sitting on our kitchen counter. Don’t be surprised by the lightweight, “cheap” plastic feel. It holds up well, does an excellent job and looks great. For the price I don’t think it can be beat. I use it daily for everything from cups of tea in the morning to making instant ramen for dinner’s. I would highly recommend.

Full pot boils in about 6 minutes. I bought it for 15.00/used like new because the last 3 kettles I had died within a year or less. They were off-brands. I know from experience that Black and Decker has amazing customer service, so I'm not worried about any problems. This kettle feels solid. The base could be a little heavier so it would stay in place, but that's also true of all the ones I've had before. The style is a little retro mod, which I like. There's no silicone grippy bit on the lid, so if your fingers are wet, it can be a little tricky to remove. I do like that there is no hinge on the lid. The hinged lids can be more difficult to clean.Notes on care: boil some vinegar in it when you see whitish deposits. Those deposits are the minerals from yout tap water. They will flake off and make your hot beverage look yucky if you don't run some vinegar regularly. If you use bottled or distilled water, you won't get the deposits. Also, wipe it down with vinegar to get the white water spots off the outside. Good kettle, good price, good company.

I’m really impressed with the BLACK+DECKER 1.7L Cordless Electric Kettle! It boils water super fast—way quicker than my stovetop—and the auto shutoff and boil dry protection are great for peace of mind. The cord-free pouring is super convenient, and I love the sleek stainless steel design. It’s perfect for busy mornings when I need my water fast. Highly recommend!

This kettle works great! It heats water up in roughly two minutes and it gets super hot so really you could cut it off before then even. It’s got a different design to it which is fun instead of just you standard kettle sitting in the counter. Very happy with it

No complaints can be made on my end. I bought the used version on a gamble of what I would receive and lucked out. Item was in original packaging, sealed in plastic, with zip tie in the power cord.Just incase you don’t read the item description, the outer shell is plastic, not ceramic. The inside however is stainless steel and the overall product has a nice appeal. Water boils quickly and automatically shuts off upon reaching a certain temperature.Great product for the $16 used price point. However, I am uncertain on the longevity of the product with its plastic outer shell.

This kettle completely met my expectations! It looks very stylish and fits perfectly in my kitchen. The 1.7L capacity is sufficient for the whole family, and the cordless design makes it convenient to use. It heats water quickly, and the illumination adds a modern touch. It’s also easy to clean and descale. A great choice for those looking for a combination of functionality and design. Highly recommend!

This purchase was the best thing I've bought in years. It exceeded my expectations. I've purchased 2 previous electric tea kettles that left me disappointed. One had 6 buttons that you had to press thru to get to the 220 degree "boil" button. I don't know about you, but when I wake up in the morning and want my tea, I don't want the hassle with buttons and tiny little words and numbers just to get the kettle boiling. This Black and Decker kettle is SIMPLE. One small button lifts the lid so you can fill with water. Set it on its base and press one button - and 2-3 minutes later, the water is boiling. The one with the 6 buttons stopped working after a few months and I was more than happy to toss it out. I reverted to the old stove top tea kettle (stored in the attic for emergencies) - never use a kettle that has its handle over the opening where the water boils! The spout spat water as it boiled and was not easy to pour accurately. It was also too heavy. The Black and Decker is gorgeous to look at, lightweight, easy and comfortable to hold and best of all, pours easily and accurately. Sounds simple, doesn't it - expecting a tea kettle to pour accurately?? Funny how one little tea kettle can make such a difference. I'm tempted to buy another one and squirrel it away in the attic in case the one I'm using ever dies. Best purchase in a very long time!

Kettle has nice wide opening so it's easy to clean. We also think it has a pleasing appearance. However, the "window" is under the handle and so it's quite hard to see how much water is in the kettle when you're filling it. The power cord is also a bit short.
