1.7L Glass Electric Kettle Water Boiler, Silver KG612S

This is the second Ovente kettle I've had. The first one had the off switch up high on the handle by your thumb. This baby lasted 6 or 7 years- still works but the switch got weak. This one is superior in a few ways: the switch is on the bottom, the heater is faster and in the back part by the handle, it can be filled without taking the lid off, and there is more stainless steel and less plastic. It is worth more than 20 bucks!

This kettle is made from borosilicate glass and stainless steel. The tall cylinder shape is very conducive to counter storage as opposed to a fat squat teardrop (more traditional) shape. It saves counter space! This item contains TWO different lids to suit your preference! The easy fill lid works great as advertised for speed and ease while still reducing evaporation. The clear plastic flapper operates for me without issue and without splashing. Good design all around! If the flappy lid isn't for you, it also includes a SECOND lid! See pics. The alternative lid has a push to lock button that remains cool enough even when hot. CLEANING is wonderful with this design. The lids are completely removable. This allows for sink brush use, towel use, etc. without hindrance. Most scale build up can be quickly removed with a quick wipe, with EASE, prolonging the need to decommission it for an extended vinegar soak and rinse maintenance cycle. The hot plate coverage by the heating coil (discernable by scale build up pattern) is better than other models. More heating surface means faster prep time. The only thing that I don't like compared to my previous kettle is the base with cord has grippy rubber feet; I was used to sliding it in and out of a counter spot. This is easily remedied with a few self-adhesive felt pads applied. Overall the only bad thing about this kettle is really just an inconvenience for me. Works great, best design I know of. 👍

Oh my goodness we love this kettle. It fits a lot more water than the Ovente we used to have. Heats quickly and keeps the water hot/warm for over an hour. Great price and looks fine on the counter. Doesn't change the taste of the water. Easy to clean with vinegar from time to time. We use ours daily. I like the easy fill top, too.

I needed a kettle in a hurry, and I chose this one because it had the quick boil wattage (1500W), and it would ship fast. I wasn't really interested in the pour-through lid. But it turns out that I love the convenience of that lid. My last kettle had a flip lid, which sometimes caused the water to splatter if I accidentally missed my target. This is a piece of cake. And since the lid comes all the way off for cleaning, it is much easier than a flip lid. And I really like the feature that keeps the kettle switch on, even if I take it off the base. When the water is getting close to simmering, I pick up the kettle and use the hot water to preheat my teapot. When I put the kettle back on the base, it continues heating until it boils, and I can pick it up again to pour the boiling water on my tea. I don't have to hit the switch again to keep it heating. But it has an auto shut-off, so if I get distracted and don't notice it's boiling, it will turn off and no risk of boiling dry. This has a nice large capacity, so that's enough water to preheat the teapot and brew a full pot of tea as well. I've only had it for a month, so I haven't seen any of the issues some other reviewers have noticed. Also, I've never had an issue with the handle being too hot to pick up as some have mentioned. Overall, I am very happy with this purchase.

I like it. This glass type is supposed to be much more shatter resistant than Pyrex. One thing that I have never seen before on an electric water kettle is that this thing turns off automatically when hot. However, if you take it off the docking station, pour our some water, and put it back on the heating mechanism remains on. Never seen that. Normally it's completely off then. It does still stop one the water is at a boil. Just one thing to keep in mind. The lid with the flap makes filling it a breeze. Was a bit apprehensive at first but very happy now. And the best and most important thing: it pours water very nicely without spilling.

Love it; I use it all the time and it has held up very well. Fast and easy

Love my tea kettle heats up sooo fast very impressed!!!!!!!

Unbelievably Powerful! Super Fast Boil! Pay attention to wattage (1500W)- [i bought 2 of these, & thought they failed. 1st one shut off & 2nd one wouldn't even light up. Was Really Bummed- until my electrician husband asked if it was plugged into a surge protector (I wasn't at home). Sure enough it was, & had tripped. Once it was reset- they worked like a charm!]- now I'm mindful of what's running before starting a kettle (& repkg'd 1 back up for a gift). Wonderful Kettle & Great Present! (Easier to clean & fill also)

Precisamente para regalo, la compre de nueva cuenta, muy util y hermosa. Gracias. Feliz Navidad.

I received my kettle and I love the design, the prontofill and the delivery was super fast. I would order it again!

i Have had this kettle for 2 months now and it started smelling very weird, like burning electrical, then the handle was hotter and hotter everyday, until I could not pour the water out of the kettle without an oven mitt, and then it started smoking slightly from the handle. I’m currently dealing with the company and the warranty, they are willing to uphold the warranty which it great, I just hope that I will soon have a working kettle.

I do have to clean it, which I don't have to do with one of my other ones, it's not a big deal, I toss some lemon juice in there, let it sit for a minute, then scrub it a bit, and voila, clean. It boils pretty quickly and looks neat, you won't burn yourself to shreds if you touch the side accidentally either, so that's a plus.

I absolutely loved my Ovente glass kettle with the fillable lid! It was so fast (about 6 minutes to boil for water at the full line from cold), handy, safe with the auto-stop feature, and fun to watch. I relied on it. Then after about two months the handle started to get warm, then it got hotter, and finally one morning the kettle just stopped working. We used a volt meter to check it. It's dead. Hopefully the company will uphold the warrantee.
