Customer Reviews of West Bend 53783 1-3/4-Quart Cordless Water Kettle, Black
Customer Rating:   Summary: boils water - but not reliable Comment: nice kettle. looks cool. build quality is questionable - the on-off switch stopped working within a few weeks... Customer Rating: Summary: Great product, buy this item! Comment: Great Product! I drink lots of Chinese green tea, make my coffee in a French press, and cook items daily (like old fashioned oatmeal) that need boiling water. This kettle will heat water fast than my microwave oven or my electric stove top. When I'm frantically getting ready for work at 5:30 am every minute is critical. This unit will heat 1 1/2 quarts of cold tap water to boiling in 5 minutes or less. Faster of course if I'm heating just 2 cups of cold water to boiling for my French press. With the auto shut-off I can add water, turn it on, return after my morning toiletries and have the boiling water to make the coffee, oatmeal, or whatever so much faster. Most convenient that the cord stays with the base too. Buy it! Customer Rating: Summary: Works well, plastic appearance Comment: Don't be fooled by the excellent pictures. This kettle works great, but on your counter it looks like what it is - plastic. It's great to have the detachable base. Great design. Customer Rating: Summary: Can't get rid of bad taste. Comment: I bought this kettle to replace one I had worn out and I was so excited, I thought I had found a great kettle. But There is some flaky bitter stuff I can't clean out of the bottom of the kettle. Nothing will remove it. I regret buying this. Also the bottom gives you a selection as to which side the cord comes out. I only got one choice, since one side was broken. Customer Rating: Summary: Good Investment Comment: The kettle is not a bad deal. After living in England for four years, I grew used to drinking tea. The kettle is a bit slower than those in the UK, however, this is most likely due to different voltages. Great if you need to save on time and a must for the tea or coffee drinker. The one thing I did not care for is the flimsy filter and the smell of plastic. It takes a while for the smell to go away, just boil it a few times.

Choosing Appliance -> Dishwashers Check the capacity. 'Standard' 60cm wide dishwashers can take 12, 14 or 16 place settings, whilst slimline 45cm models may cater for 7, 8 or 9 place settings. Compact dishwashers tend to be 45 cm wide and can be placed on the worktop or built in, depending on the model. They may take 4, 5 or 6 place settings. Choosing Appliance -> Shopping Washer When shopping for a new washer, look for a front loading (horizontal-axis) machine. This machine may cost more to buy but uses about a third of the energy and less water than a top-loading machine. With a front loader, you'll also save more on clothes drying, because they remove more water from your clothes during the spin cycle. Look for the Energy Star label.
