Tuesday Tip: Cuisinart Electric Kettle
Today’s tip comes from another little appliance that we love. Our family enjoys many hot drinks so having a reliable kettle is essential. Now, in my opinion, not all tea kettles are created equal. You see, early on in our marriage, my husband melted two tea kettles on our stove. Needless to say, I had to find the best way to warm up our water for drinks. Finally, I found the perfect solution to our dilemma and quite possibly the answer to preventing a home fire. It was a grand task, but someone in the family had to save our home and marriage.
I’m always trying to solve many problems in our kitchen and home. It was imperative that I find a new kettle that wouldn’t have the final demise as all the others we have owned. This little electric tea kettle is the perfect solution. I’ll try and touch on all its great points.
1. It heats up water pretty quickly.
We just put about two cups of water in it, and it took about two minutes to heat up. My husband was commenting that the tea kettles we used in England heated up quicker. I’m sure the reason for their efficiency is that they use 220 voltage, and everything is powerful and better over in Europe!
2. Automatic shut off feature.
When the water is hot and done, the kettle automatically shuts off. This convenient feature is essential for our family for four.
3. It is a cordless kettle .
The base houses the cord so the kettle is free to move anywhere in your kitchen.
4. Cord length adjusts.
The cord attaches to the base and wraps up underneath, so you can adjust it to any length you need. So, no more long cords on your kitchen countertop.
5. Convenient window to view water level.
The new kettle has a built-in window so you can view the water level. This is a nice feature. Unfortunately, our kettle is an older version and doesn’t have this option.
Our family loves this little appliance and now that I think of it, it is probably the second most used item in our kitchen. Our kettle has lasted something like 15 years and has been a pretty reliable little appliance. We couldn’t be happier, and it has saved us from any unnecessary house fires.
As always, I would love to hear from you and know that this post was helpful and interesting. Or just say, “hello” in the comments below.
