Best Appliance Ever!
The Toasteess TJK electric kettle was in the apartment I rented in Dublin. I fell in
love with it quickly. It heats up quickly and turns itself off. When I returned to
the United States I purchased one, but I've had to purchase several more
because my neighbors see it and want one, as well.

A toast to Toastess.......
I specifically ordered this product because I can't find this brand in Hawaii. I bought this same brand before but a different and bigger style water kettle heater. I loved It! I've gone through a couple of water kettle heaters and Toastess is hard to beat. But it broke due to we accidently heated without water in it. So I found the same brand but smaller version on Amazon.com and we love it. It is so lightweight and heats water in an instant. The best feature on it is, if you turn it on without water in it...it will turn off automatically. I only wish it had a larger water capacity.

fast boiling
I drink lots of tea, and after spending a couple weeks in Paris this summer in a friend's apartment, and using the electric kettle there, I decided I'd like one for my house back home. This Toastess model is big for making a cup of tea at a time (the one I used in Europe was much smaller) but I couldn't find one I liked in a smaller size, so I went ahead and got this one. It works like a champ; I fill it just to cover the element inside, so as to make my cup of tea. Boils very quickly, and I like the fact that the pitcher is plastic because it keeps it lightweight.
In reading other reviews of kettles I noticed that some people seem to take issue with an exposed heating element (ie you can see the heating coil on the inside of the pitcher). I'm not sure why this is considered a problem by some; the kettle I used in Europe had an exposed heating element, and this one does too, but I don't have a problem with that.
The fact that it shuts off automatically as soon as the water starts boiling is great, and I also appreciate the cordless pitcher.
I can see this kettle coming in handy during soup season, when sometimes I need to add a bit of hot water to a soup or stew that is cooking on the stove.
I am well pleased with this kettle and don't hesitate to recommend it.
