Customer Reviews
Works great until it starts to leak
We used it for about 3 years before the window began to leak water through it. Needs redesign if they want it to last longer.
Bad, bad, bad
This tea kettle was a huge disappointment for me. First of all, it leaked. Secondly, my intention in getting a tea pot such as this was to have a constant supply of hot water in my office for tea. Once you push the lever down to heat the water, it makes a huge loud noise. It does heat the water rather quickly, but self-shuts off. When you're ready to pour water for a 2nd cup of tea, the water has cooled off and you have to endure the loud noise again and wait. Didn't meet my needs in this area. Then to top it all off, after 2 months the kettle broke and doesn't heat water at all!! Bad choice, save your money and time.
Not worth it!
Within 3 weeks of purchasing this tea kettle it broke completely, and stopped working for no reason. Bad workmanship and not reliable - I would steer clear of this one. It may look great but it's not worth the money.
Two things to make it great
Did a man design this??
Great idea poor durability
I love my hot pot...I boil water every morning to use in my French Press. It brings water to a boil much faster that the stovetop teapot BUT over time Hamilton Beach Teakettle leaks and gets worse each day. At first it was just a little leak at the bottom seal. Then the plastic gage window started to leak. Now, both leaks spread water all over my counter top if there is any water left between uses. Not a good design. I am ordering a new one but trying a different brand.
