1.7 L Variable Temperature Glass Kettle

I bought this kettle on Saturday and returned it to Canadian Tire on Sunday. It beeps. Loudly. A beep when you turn it on, beeps when you change the desired temperature, and two beeps when it finishes. If you are the kind of person who can handle loud beeping before you have your morning caffeine, you are stronger than I am.

bought this kettle a few weeks ago
temperature setting is off by at least 10C

select 80c....get 67c
select 90c get 77c
select 100c get 87c

temperatures as measured by digital thermometer

caveat emptor

Elle bip à chaque pression de bouton, lorsqu’elle atteint sa température et lorsqu’on la repose sur son socle. Pas moyen de les enlever.
Il n’y a pas de thermomètre affiché. Aucune idée de la température alors il faut repartir la machine avec tous les bips.
Nous la retournons au magasin, je préfère me passer d’américanos que de supporter ça.

This kettle is perfect except for the fact that it beeps loud 3 times just to turn it on. Another beep to start. 2 beeps when finished. Total 6 beeps for one boil. I will have to return as it appears to be no way to turn the beeping off.

I bought this after shopping around a fair bit. I wanted a variable temperature kettle for different sorts of tea. After a bit of use, and not getting a good strong cup of tea, I decided to actually use a thermometer to measure water temperature for boiled water. I wanted a strong dark tea and was only getting not much more than coloured water, even though it looked like the kettle had come to a rolling boil. I've tested multiple times, using the boil button, and can only get a measure of max 97 Celsius (with just over the minimum water - not filled, and after swishing it around and re-boiling). A single boil only gets to 95 degrees. If you want a kettle that actually brings water to a boil, don't get this one. Too late to return with Canadian Tire return policies I think, but am thoroughly unimpressed.
