4 out of 5 stars Bought it for my mom & she likes it....   August 17, 2010

She said it does what it's supposed to do, fast, which is good enough for 4 stars.


1 out of 5 stars just stopped working   February 23, 2010
C. Downing (Chicago, IL USA)
worked great until the day it tripped the GFCI plug. Now when you try to boil water, the circuit trips. This really stinks. Save your money to buy a decent kettle and skip this one.


1 out of 5 stars Great for 3 weeks - Leaks   January 24, 2010
Just the truth (Seattle)
My new GF really needed a better tea kettle, so I was so pleased to find this one. She said it was one of her best Christmas presents, and got rid of her old kettle. Imagine my chagrin when 3 weeks later it started massively leaking hot water all over her counter and getting everything else waterlogged. I am really disappointed. Now I have to go out an get her another kettle while I fight with J&R to get this one replaced. Bummer. West Bend should deliver products that last more than 3 weeks.

This product is very good. It looks really nice, modern design, easy to handle and the water boils in only a few minutes. Perfect. I recommend it.


1 out of 5 stars Almost perfect, but not quite   June 3, 2009

Update: Three months later, and the kettle is broken. It just stopped working! The blue light still turns on, but the water no longer boils. Bummer. Down to 1 star, if they'd let me edit the star rating part of this review. I have updated my review to 1 star (per the request of some commenters).

This is my original review, when I gave it 4 stars:

"When I first received my West Bend Electric Kettle, I was so excited because it has everything I want. It boils water faster than my previous kettle, it has a nice round base so the kettle can spin (in case I have to grab the handle from different angles), and the design is very clean and sensible. The water level is sort of hard to see through the blue plastic, but it's fine.

I almost came here and wrote my rave review just a couple days after receiving it, but now I'm glad I waited a few weeks. The lid doesn't open on its own anymore. There is a little button at the top which is supposed to pop the lid open, and now it gets stuck. Now I have to hold the button down and bang on the lid until it catches "just right". This is annoying. I don't like having to bang on my tea kettle.

This isn't the most expensive kettle out there, but it's also not the cheapest. I would expect the lid to work properly. It's annoying, but the most important thing is that it boils water, and it boils it fast, so at the least the main functionality seems to be top notch."
