LASTED FOUR YEARS! Not too bad! Read on for deets…
This morning I was making the tea for our weekly tea party when I noticed water all over the countertop. Earlier, I had seen some bubbles skittering through the window of the water level window in the kettle and thought it was odd since I have never seen that before. I should have paid more attention to that, because it was an indicator that my kettle was leaking. Those were air bulbbles as little drops of water slipped out of the base of the handle and ran into the bottom heating ring.
It can still be used but the leak will surely only grow. I have had this kettle for four years, so I feel that this isn’t too surprising. It gets a lot of use. I will probably buy exactly the same kettle to replace it, because it really does have great capacity and is quite useful. I will ask hubby first if it can be fixed….he can do anything, so if he says no then it is truly gone.
This is the kettle I use, too! I actually have two, one for work. :)
I just got this one for my birthday last June (my first electric kettle) and I’ve been loving it.
