Title: Everything but a switch
Review: This electric tea kettle does the job very quickly, cheaply, and efficiently. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because plugging it and unplugging it probably shortens its life, and produces sparks. My solution is to buy an outlet strip with on/off button and dedicate it to this appliance. While this solution produces clutter, it is the one I recommend for any appliance whose switch is subject to failure, or which produces "phantom loads" (always "on" or with LED displays such as clocks.)
Is the review positive or negative?
