Sleek stainless steel kettle lifts from and returns to its 360-degree base from any direction for complete portability. 1,500 watts of power bring up to 1.7 liters of water to a boil in virtually no time. Concealed heating element with water scale filter eliminates lime, corrosion, scale and other mineral buildup. Easy-to-read, dual water window indicators display the water level from either side of kettle. Illuminated on/off switch lets you know when the unit is on to prevent mishandling. Kettle automatically shuts off when water boils and features boil-dry safety shutoff. No-spill spout prevents dripping boiling water on yourself or counter.
