Aroma AWK-161 Clar-i-Tea 1.7-Liter Electric Water Kettle and Tea Brewer Review
Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This is one of the few electric kettles I found with no plastic under the water line--although it does have a silicone gasket between the glass and metal parts. It boils fast and is reasonably easy to clean.
HOWEVER, it has a fatal flaw. The non-detachable mesh screen connected to the lid is not stainless steel. It visibly rusted within a week of purchasing the product. I called Aroma (the manufacturer) and they sent me a replacement, which started to visibly rust in 24 hours! This is not okay. Any metal in the product should be food grade stainless steel.

With 1500 watts of power, this electric kettle quickly brings up to 1-3/5 liters of water to a roiling boil--great for hot chocolate, instant coffee, oatmeal, instant soups, noodles, baby formula, and more. Simply add water, close the lid until it locks securely into place, and push the power switch located on the power base. The uniquely designed appliance not only provides a tempered-glass carafe for viewing the boiling process, but it also comes with a stainless-steel tea infuser that accommodates both loose-leaf and bagged teas, making it possible to brew a variety of teas right in the pot after the water has boiled. Best of all, the unit's patented Strix electric connector delivers power to the kettle through its stationary base, which means the kettle can be lifted off the base for graceful pouring without the hassle of a cord. The kettle also swivels 360 degrees in either direction on its base, making it a comfortable choice for both right- or left-handed users. For safety and peace of mind, the unit automatically turns off once water comes to a boil or if the kettle's empty. Other highlights include an "on" indicator light, a cool-touch handle, a decalcification filter, an easy-to-clean design, and cord storage in the base. The electric water kettle and tea brewer measures approximately 9 by 7-2/7 by 8-3/5 inches and carries a one-year limited warranty.
