Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Cuisinart CJK-17BC Cordless Electric Jug Kettle, Brushed Stainless Steel
Customer Review: Four years and counting!
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm shocked to read all these terrible reviews for this wonderful kettle -- I love mine! For over four years it has been used daily, not only to boil water in a flash for hot drinks, but also (though not daily) to speedily heat water to transfer to a stovepot for boiling pasta. The other reviews initlally led me to wonder if Cuisinart had changed their kettle, but the one offered on this page has the identical item number: CJK-17BC; the same appearance, and the identical 3-year warranty (according to the product blurb here on Amazon) -- that mine has. Note, a 3-year product warranty is a real anomaly in a world where 90-day warranties have sadly become the norm.
I'm very sorry to learn about the bad experiences that some others have had with this kettle, but my own experience with it -- and that 3-year-warranty -- still lead me to enthusiastically recommend this kettle to anyone.
UPDATE 12/2009: Two years later and it's still working ...

Description of Cuisinart CJK-17BC Cordless Electric Jug Kettle, Brushed Stainless Steel
The Cuisinart® Cordless Electric Jug Kettle features the latest in technology to make boiling water quicker and easier than ever. The elegant brushed stainless steel finish makes it the perfect addition to any table. Great for making tea, hot chocolate, oatmeal, instant soups, and noodles, it will quickly become part of your daily routine. In just minutes, this contemporary cordless kettle brings up to 1-3/4 quarts of water to the boiling point and then turns itself off. You''ll wonder how you lived without it!This attractive brushed stainless-steel electric kettle boils up to 1-3/4 quarts of water for tea, coffee, or instant oatmeal and soups. The 1,500-watt power base heats water quickly and, for safety, automatically shuts off when it reaches a boil. The cordless kettle conveniently lifts off the base to travel to the breakfast table, desk, or wherever tea is being served and has a cool bottom so it can rest on any surface. Unlike many other electric kettles, the heating element on this one is concealed within the jug. This design prevents calcium build-up, which can alter the flavor of hot water. The kettle also has a button that opens the lid with a single touch for easy refilling and an easy-to-read water level indicator. Other perks on this jug include a large, stay-cool handle and a wide lip for pouring. Cuisinart covers this cordless electric jug kettle under a 3-year warranty. --Cristina Vaamonde
