We use an electric tea kettle too, shuts off soon as the water boils,
no more boiled dry burnt kettles, If you miss hearing the water boil
and shut off just hit the button and it's boiling again in like 15
seconds. An electric tea kettle is about twice as fast as a stove
top. I don't like using a microwave to boil a cup of water. Can't
tell yoose how many times even though I hear the timer's dings I
forget to retrieve the cup, sometimes the next morning I'm looking for
my cup and finally find it in the microwave, still contains the half
cup of coffee I was reheating.
