Braun WK200W Aqua Express Electric Water KettleNovember 18, 2008 I am extremely pleased with my purchase, having previously used the same product/model for seven years until the on/off switch wore out. I use the item throughout the day for tea and coffee and when I want instant hot water. I was most fortunate finding it on the amazing Amazon site. Thank you for the opporunity to share my opinion.

Great kettleNovember 17, 2008 Bought this kettle for my mom- she is very happy with it. Another great Braun design and quality. Should last forever.
Do yourselves a favour and buy an electric kettle people!November 13, 2008 I had one of these Braun kettles in Australia - I liked it so much that I bought the same kettle when I came over to the States. All my American friends quiz me on this strange appliance in the kitchen; "What is that?" "Why it's a kettle of course." "What's it for?" "To boil water. Every house has one in Australia and the UK." "Why don't you just use the stove?" "Cos it takes forever!!" I've used many kettles back home; this one is definitely the best I've ever owned. Very fast boilup. Automatic off function so you can't boil it dry. Light weight and cordless. Look no further - 5 Stars.
Pricey but well worth itNovember 12, 2008 This cordless electric kettle is great. It holds a large volume of water but heats the water quickly. It also has a convenient auto-off feature that makes me feel confident that my office mates won't accidentally burn down our office if they forget they turned on the kettle. It also has a clever design that hides any extra cord underneath the base. Tea at the office has never been so easy! Small detail: the kettle that arrived is all white and does not have the black handle as shown in the photograph.
Low qualityNovember 11, 2008 Died in 6 months. Called customer support, they told me that they do not provide replacement since it is discontinued model, and I have to send it to nearest service center at my own shipping expense. Will never buy this one again.
