Title: TERRIFIC KETTLE !
Review: I researched extensively for the "healthiest" electric kettle, that is, one without any plastic anywhere near the boiling water. Well folks, this is the best one I could find. That's not to say there is no plastic at all - the lid is made with plastic. You can eliminate the lid but the "auto" shut-off won't work -- however, you can shut it off manually. I use a porcelain saucer as a lid to avoid any sputtering @ high boil. This kettle is magically fast, coming to a full rolling boil in under 4 mins. The exterior design is very sleek looking, and the interior is seamless stainless steel, with no water gauge (which is a good thing since they are plastic). If it weren't for the lid being plastic, I would have given this 5-stars. Maybe Hamilton Beach or some other mfg will soon take the hint and come up with an ALL stainless or glass unit (sans plastic) - but until then, this is the "healthiest" alternative I could find, and a great kitchen helper!
