1.7 L Variable Temperature Glass Kettle

This kettle does not come to a complete boil. It goes up to about 90 or so. It never goes into that furious roiling stage. You have to stand there and keep repressing the on button twice about 10 times so it goes to a complete boil. Is this one of those products that was designed for stupid people so that they don’t get burned, thereby depriving normal people of the joy of fully boiled water?

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

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.
