Finally a kettle for tea lovers!!!
By klas
We’ve owned Krups FLF2-J1 electric kettle for when it comes to 4 years and while it was doing the occupation I secretely hated it for respective reasons until I ran into CPK-17. While there were no reviews when I introductory saw it I decisive to pull the plug anyway and I wasn’t dissapointed.
Pros:
Selectable temperatures = No more burning toungs!
No smell that I detect
Stylish looking
Fits a cup more then Krups
Nice blue led when in operation
Surprsingly quieter then Krups
Beeps when ready
Keeps it warm for 30 minuites
Faster tea preparation when selecting lower temps
Cap opens with a push of a button (Krups had a twist off)
Neutral:
Price for some
Some plastic there, but not too much
Cons:
They didn’t make one 4 years ago
Stains on Stainless Steel already
Time will tell, but so far I haven’t found a better option among all electric kettles.

Pretty Solid but…
By D. Mitchell
I did pretty extensive exploration before buying an electric kettle. The CPK-17 appealed to me on a few dissimilar levels. I liked the design, the materials used and the functionality. Although it’s nice to have the option of dissimilar temperature settings, it’s in truth only utile if you drink a lot of tea, which I don’t. I in general use the “French Press” and “Keep Warm” settings, and there’s likewise a Boil option (which is the next setting up from French Press). On the design side, it’s a outstanding looking appliance made from for the most part stainless steel. Of course a big concern of mine is the use of BPA-leaching plastic in a great deal of kettles on the market, but there appears to be none on the interior of the CPK-17. The water level, as far as I may see, is covered with another sheet of steel. The only non-steel element I see on the kettle’s interior is a silicone nub near the bottom, which closely all kettles have and which are also heat-resistant. Another thing I like in regards to the CPK-17′s design is the 360-degree swivel capability of the kettle while resting on it is heating element. And of course, the illuminated water level (on when the kettle is in use) is very beautiful – a nice soft blue color. The pouring spout is perfectly-shaped which makes for a fool-proof pour each time. In terms of functionality, the CPK works incisively as advertised. Heat-up time is quick and the controls are responsive.
The major complaint I have with the CPK-17 is the fact that it’s already scaling at the bottom and I’ve only had the kettle for 2 weeks. To me, this is crazy – specially taking into account I use filtered water by Multi-pure (one of the most modern filtration systems available), so the water is as clean as it gets before it even goes into the kettle. No chlorine, no calcium, no lime — so what’s with the scaling deposits already? It’s annoying, and I wonder if other owners have had similar issues. Anyway, I’m giving this product 4 stars. To recap…
Pros:
- outstanding design, little if any interior plastic
- smooth functioning, fast heat-up
Cons:
- Scales effortlessly after only a few uses
- Pricey
