I splurged on this kettle about a week ago and I'm not sorry. I am a huge tea drinker and this kettle is a tea drinker's dream. I hadn't realized how badly my old, "regular" kettle was scorching everything. I actually boil water for my herbal tea on the green tea setting, because I don't like my tea so hot that it burns my tongue. The flavours are so much more robust when you boil the water at the various temperatures. So far I've used the green tea and the black tea setting and no joke, my tea tastes so much better, and I never realized how much flavour I was missing. The water boils quickly and quietly, and the "stay warm" function is a dream... most of the time I'm doing other things while water boils and with this function I don't feel like I need to sit and wait for it to finish... I can do whatever I'm doing and know the water will stay at the appropriate temperature. It's very easy to operate and I love how big the carafe is, I only need to fill it every two or three days. I haven't cleaned it yet, but based on the instructions it will be easy to do. It's a lot of money for a kettle, but it's very worth it. It's sturdy, well-made and I expect it to last a very long time.
