Pros

The variable temperature feature is excellent for teas. It also has a 20-minute hold setting, so once it reaches the desired temp.



Cons

The breville kettle is made of polycarbonate. I don't feel comfortable with bpa around my boiling (or close to boiling) water. It just beeps and won't boil any more.

We are now finding that it’s very very inferior.

The warranty expired on april 14, 2015. The reason the screw popped out is that the housing that it threaded into sheared.
