Boil Water By Tapping a Button

Equipped with a 1500-watt immersed heating element, this electric kettle quickly brings up to 1-2/3 liters of water to a rolling boil. To use, simply fill the kettle using the LED-illuminated water-level indicator to gauge how much, return it to its power base and flip the switch to the on position. In about two minutes, hot water will be ready for anything from tea, instant coffee and hot cocoa to instant soup or oatmeal.
