Bodum 11451-913US 17-Ounce Electric Water Kettle, White



Efficient but still a little pricey
If you are a single or specifically want a small kettle that takes up little space, this is it. Unfortunately it also seems to be one of the few small ones in this product niche so you have to get hit with a higher price than what it's worth.

This kettle basically holds about 2 mugs of coffee. It says 4 cups on the water level, but that is the euro-size 4 oz servings. Filled, it boiled for me in about 3.5 minutes. The lid doesn't remove, it pops open on a hinge, I actually like this feature. It doesn't say bpa-free on the box, but it's advertised as such so I'm taking their word for it. It takes a few minutes before you can use it again; never a problem with me. Finally, it is a cute product and the only reason it won't get 5 stars is that for a plastic kettle, it's too expensive - but it seems to have no competition in the market and it IS perfect for me as a single in a small apartment.

Do not hesitate!
Most excellent travel kettle. Love it. Spent FOREVER researching the perfect kettle to make my morning cup of tea whilst away. I called the company to verify the BPA free claim - it is all true and correct. Hurrah. Love it so much I use it at home and whilst travelling. Great kettle. For those who make green tea, just boil, flip up the hinged lid and the water will cool to perfect temp in a few minutes, flip lid back down, pour and enjoy your brew!

Bodum Electric Kettle
This kettle really lives up to my expectations! It is a nice size and shape for storage, boils water quickly, is made of durable material, and best of all--the water doesn't taste like hot plastic! It is great for boiling 3 cups or less. perfect for my evening tea. I had been looking around before I purchased this on Amazon, and found a wide range if prices and reviews on electric kettles. The Bodum had the best reviews and a modest price. I highly recommend!
