Chef's Choice Cordless Electric Kettle By Jan Mayrhofer on Mar 03, 2008 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

I just love a cup of hot tea first thing in the morning. I burned up my last tea kettle because the whistle mechanism had broken, so I needed to find a new one.

I was checking the clearance table at J.C. Penney one day for a new kettle, since a couple of years previous I had found my last tea kettle for a really good price there. I was disappointed to find there were no stove top kettles on clearance. I almost walked away until I noticed in the small appliance area, a box with a picture of an electric kettle. I had never owned one of these before, but I was getting tired of heating my tea water in a sauce pan and so I bought it. After all, it was on clearance!

What a find! I didn't know until I tried it that it heats water in two minutes tops. It takes a little longer if I fill it all the way, but still very quick. You know that old saying, "A watched pot never boils"? Don't believe it! I stand and wait for this one to boil and then take my tea with me to get ready in the morning. It's great - I love it! Try one yourself for your hot water needs, you sure won't be sorry.
