Advantages: rapid
Disadvantages: need mugs not cups
we purchased this after using one at a family members house and absolutley loving how quick it boiled.
i thought that this would be great for the morning rush before work and decided to get one.
you simply switch on the kettle, put your cup on the drip tray under the nozzle and wait
The kettle has a blue light which illuminates when boiling it takes merly seconds to boil and the fills your cup, there is a drip tray for spillages which is easily taken out to empty.
its easy to clean and fill up as the kettle itself can be taken off the base
the kettle itself is great the boil time great but there are a few downsides for me
the first time i used it i managed to overfill my cup not realising that the water was more than a normal size cup (its 250ml i believe) the excess water spilled into the drip tray but also splashed out, the drip tray itself is not very big. i had to purchase mugs from then on.
the kettle isnt easy to see water levels and i have boiled it so many times and realised nothing is coming out but on the upside it has not broke.
i do recommend this kettle though and often get frustrated when im visiting family and have to wait for the kettle to boil for so long.
worth the money on the eco friendly part but just make sure you have big mugs
