Do you have one? Do you like it? What do you like or dislike about it. Was it worth the money or would you have been better off with a kettle on the stove?
I am looking to buy one, but I am having a hard time justifying the cost.
This is the one I am looking at. As it turns out, we actually have this one in our office (I did not know that when I started looking at these and chose this one as my front runner). I boiled 3 cups of water in it today for the first time just as a test. I did not do a side by side comparison, but it did not seem like it was any faster than a kettle on my stove. Once it came to a boil it automatically shut off, but the only indication that it was done was that the on/off button clicked into the off position with a very soft click. I would not hear that when using it at home as I would generally be too far away to hear that.
So what am I missing? Should I just stick with my stove top kettle?
