Cuisinart PerfecTemp Electric Kettle Review & Boil Test

[@davidcasey6660]

We bought this for our son who likes French Press, Does the kettle ever shut off after you press warm as instructed in video or do you have to unplug it.

[@terrilynn1771]

Love this. Thank you for your video. I'm definitely getting this. I love love teas

[@daedalos5132]

Just fyi, pouring boiling water down the sink is not good for plastic pipes and their joints..

[@elhadjiamadoujohnson4166]

Just bought one on Friday. Sent to my wife back home. I’ll sent her this video for reference.

[@chrisw1462]

Seems as though the handle would require you to grip it hard to pour, since you can't put your thumb anywhere near the top. Not a very well thought out design.

[@EarthlingCooks]

Had this almost 7 years. Never had any issues with pouring or hand feel when pouring..

[@Adeline9418]

Another awesome product thats been around for years. I had the almost identical Hamilton Beach one. Now i can get a renewed Cuisinart for $4 more than HB!! Going for it!!!

[@ravenblackhawke]

With daily heavy use after a short while the lettering wears off......Too expensive to have that happen. Returned it for a full refund.

[@earthling1984]

ravenblackhawke Mine has got a little warn in time too. But, all still visable after 2 years of use.

[@J235304204]

Its been a while since you had this kettle, how do you like it so far? I'm planning to get one myself.

[@EarthlingCooks]

+Huadong Feng Been using it daily for months now and it is awesome! Not a problem, boils water fast. It gets used at least twice, sometimes three times a day.

[@anthonyromano8565]

Mine worked fine for about two years and it went caput today. It never leaked water out the bottom though. There is a circuit board and heating element that is accessible but I doubt I could find parts to fix it. I used it daily. don't give a rats ass about the lettering but only the boil and start button has faded slightly.

[@MisfitsFiendClub138]

Buyer beware! The water tastes off after boiling in this kettle. Both my coffee and tea tasted weird. Unfortunately bringing it back to Bed Bath and Beyond for a refund. Tasting what you drink is the real test for any kettle

[@EarthlingCooks]

Did you run it first and clean it out? Probably should have done one "test cycle" to do a cleaning. All I know is, I've had this thing for almost 7 years now. It still works perfect and like new. Never had any bad taste from it.

[@maryamabedy5158]

How to turn it off in the middle of boiling process? like in case of regretting to make tea for example...

[@EarthlingCooks]

I know you can. I'm not looking at it right now. But, I think if you just hit the same (or any of the temperature buttons) it will turn off and wait for you to click start again.

[@DanielBrain]

If you boil the kettle on the max setting, then drop the temperature, does it notify you in some way that the temperature is higher than you are after?

[@jamesobrien6976]

Sounds like a jetliner. Too slow. Thanks for a great review.

[@pnutbutrncrackers]

Nicely reviewed, EC. Thx!

[@earthling1984]

You're welcome! Just an update if you were thinking of buying this. I still have it over 2 years later now! I actually used it 3 times today! I use it almost daily for coffee, tea, boiling water for oatmeal, or other uses. Still works like new, and looks like new!

[@millefranc]

Thanks for the great review. Question: when you lift the kettle off the base, is it safe to put it on any table (without the base)?

[@AndrusVulkan]

Yes it is safe. It has plastic base. I have similar kettle CPK-18E (European model)

[@millefranc]

Thank you!

[@matthewplude3827]

Ok, but what was the temperature of the water when you initiated the boil cycle? That would effect the time to boil.

[@EarthlingCooks]

Just standard cold water out of tap. Not sure exact temperature.

[@matthewplude3827]

Well, "standard cold water out of tap" can vary *GREATLY* depending on where you are in the world. Whereas boiling (by and large) will be at the same temperature.

[@6636860]

@@matthewplude3827 What, and extra minute or two is going to make you cry. GET SOME PATIENCE MAN! DON'T WHINE!

[@matthewplude3827]

@@6636860 It's not about patience, lady. If he is quoting boil times, the starting temperature will impact the time it takes to boil. Your the one the girl that needs to stop whining.

[@razerbaz]

What a waste of time,i thought it would be super fast, good review

[@clearmist7170]

Is the inside of the tea kettle, where the water goes, also stainless steel? Some tea kettles have plastic or some other material on the inside, that's why I ask. How easy is it to clean the inside?

[@EarthlingCooks]

Stainless steel inside.

[@thomaswilson2327]

How is this cordless when it has a cord? Most disappointing purchase of my life

[@EarthlingCooks]

Still have mine, works great. I love that I can pick it up and there is no cord to get in the way. I guess you didn't research what you were buying before you purchased?

[@Adeline9418]

Yeah Thomas Wilson!!

[@nowahblanco9935]

wow this is so interesting. Im being sarcastic

Wait till you grow up and have a family.. this is the kinda stuff you gotta watch..

[@jsvanlife.4390]

Cordless , SHOULD MEAN......Cordless ! 🙈

[@earthling1984]

J'sVanLife. Agreed, but, then it would need batteries or something. At least this can easily be picked up and used without worrying about a cord in the way while pouring.

[@tastech]

yeah but tell apple and samsung abut their wireless charging phones...

Are you insane?
