Title: I EXPECTED THIS TO LAST
Product review: I was seeking an electric kettle with a lid that would be easy to open and thought this was well designed and durable. However, within six months, my boiled water started to have a metallic taste and when I examined the interior, I was surprised to see that there was a ring of worn down metal that was probably the cause of the metallic taste of the hot water. I no longer had a receipt and it was past due any return policy date. Luckily, I purchased it from Bed, Bath, and Beyond and they gave me a store credit---no questions asked. Because they had a limited number/brands of electric kettles, I ultimately purchased an Aroma Hot H20 Xpress at another store. This kettle is terrific (so far) and the kettle performs as advertised: a kettle of water boils at the speed it would take to boil a cup of water. The lid is manual but it is easy enough to open for my arthritic fingers.
