Product Description Housed in a smooth, modern-looking design, this 1000-watt electric kettle rapidly boils up to 1 quart of water for coffee, tea, instant soups, and more. The unit features a detachable cord and a nonspill spout for graceful serving, plus a generous handle with a secure grip. Its immersed heating element provides a rapid and quiet heating process, making it ideal for the office, home, or college dorm. Dual water-level indicators allow for convenient filling, and the unit's easy-open lid is designed with a security lock to prevent spilling. And there's no need to worry about leaving it on, the kettle automatically shuts off when the water boils, and its boil-dry protection keeps the unit from boiling when there's no water left

We Own Two - They're Great! November 23, 2008 First - we too had an issue with a plastic odor.. We solved the problem easily. After following the inadequate instructions supplied with the kettle, let it cool and wash with mild dish soap. Rinse well; heat another pot of water; pour it out; unplug it; dry it; leave the lid up and let it sit overnight. This solved the odor in both kettles we have. These are obviously put into a plastic bag as soon as manufactured and the plastic odor has never had a chance to dissipate.
Second - there is little else to say. It heats water to a boil very quickly. It shuts off automatically as soon as it has done that. It's meant to do only that and it does it as well as we expected it to. The price is nice, too.
submerged heating coil means FAST boiling November 21, 2008 This electric kettle boils water really quickly because the heating element is a submerged coil, not just a plate on the bottom. The kettle automatically turns off when the water boils. It doesn't make a sound though to let you know when this has happened - only a slight clicking noise as the on-off switch physically flicks to off - so if you want boiling water, it's best not to walk away. Just watch it until it boils. Luckily it only takes a minute or two since the kettle is so fast. It's only intended for boiling *water* - no making soup or tea in this kettle, because of the heating coil.
For $15 can't be beat November 21, 2008 For a $15 expenditure cannot be beat. Made of plastic (not great but does the job-especially for $15), does not take long to warm up, relatively easy to clean, easy to see water level. The only critique is that it comes with an electric cord that is about 3 ft long. It would have been nice if it included a longer cord.
Ideal November 17, 2008 Works great for boiling water for Tea. Like many others said earlier, the lid does not open and shut smoothly. I had to boil and discard the water a few times before I started using the kettle as it has quite a strong smell of plastic initially. I like the detachable cord feature and the compact design of the kettle.
Proctor Silex K2070H 1-Quart Automatic Electric Kettle, White November 11, 2008 This piece of merchandise is the first that I did not care for. After heating up several quarts of water, the water still had a chemical, unappetizing taste to it.
Amazon.com should not sell merchandize that rates minus five stars.
I was totally disappointed and I will never ever purchase a Proctor Silex product again.
