We threw out our first one because of the calcium buildup inside and
just bought a new one. When the wife moved away, she took that new one
with her. I just use a small pot to boil water now. The revereware
kettles are nifty looking and cheap enough though. I wouldn't buy
another but it would be a nice Christmas gift to me.
