The Hamilton Beach Stainless Steel Kettle makes it easy to prepare tea, instant coffee, hot cocoa, oatmeal, ramen and more. It has 1500 watts of power for ultra-fast heating, and you can heat 1 litre or 4 cups of water faster than a microwave and safer than a stovetop kettle. It’s easy to use. Just fill the kettle with water, plug it in and press down the on/off switch near the base. Water heats up quickly and when it reaches a boil, the kettle and indicator light automatically turn off. You can effortlessly monitor the water level with the easy-view water window, and the stainless steel, BPA-free interior provides durability and peace of mind. For cord-free serving, the kettle lifts off the base to let you pour and serve at the table or anywhere you’re prepping hot beverages or meals. For easy storage after use, wrap the cord under the base to keep the cord out of the way. Includes a removable mesh filter that helps prevent mineral scale from getting in your cup.
