Bodum Mini Ibis Electric Water Kettles Review

I've had this kettle for about 1 & 1/2 years without having any electrical or scale build-up problems. I use it 1 to 4 times per day, it boils water faster than the microwave and takes very little counter space, stores easily in cupboard. I use filtered water from my refrigerator dispenser, not tap water. My mom, who can't stand counter clutter either (she constantly tries to give away her microwave and other small appliances to family/friends when they visit) liked it so much that I got her one and hers is going strong after one year of constant use.

I do agree that the lid leaks steam near the handle (usually only a problem when you fill to max line) and you need to watch where you grip, occasionally I've also had issues with a little bit of water leakage from the base. I always make sure the lid is locked in place before turning it on, and it always shuts off at boil, no problems with the lid lock either. My mom's has worked the same. I probably wouldn't let anyone younger than a teenager use it on their own, but you could say that for most appliances.

I guess with any electrical appliance there are lemons out there, but you also have to factor in personal usage habits and possibly bad or inadequate home wiring. For example I've had problems with electrical appliance/equipment burnouts in older poorly wired apartments that cleared up when I moved to a newer, correctly wired home.

I recommend this product if you want a well-priced, compact electric water kettle that wears well and is also easy to take along if you travel.
