The Braun WK200W is great for dorms, at the office, or at home for heating water real fast when preparing tea, instant coffee, instant soups, and even oatmeal. Go ahead and see if your old stove top kettle can win a race with this electric kettle!
The Braun has a nice two-tone white color that will accommodate most kitchen designs (the WK200B is the black-colored- version), will not take up much space, offers no-spill hassle, and once again will boil water faster than you can measure tea in your infuser!
But is the current $145 price tag worth it? in today's economy that may seem like a lot of money for an electric kettle, but you will get what you pay for.
Braun WK200W Pros
features a non spill spout for hassle free pouring
kettle detaches from base and is easy to fill
large easy to read water gauge display
top lid opens with ease without struggle
device is easy to clean
kettle also swivels on base making it convenient to grab for both a right and left household
heating elements are located beneath kettle base rather than inside kettle
has a large easy grip handle
Braun WK200W Cons
unlike some other models, the WK200W lacks an audible "ding" once water has reached a boil
cord is short, thick, and stiff
fails to solve the common problem of being less hot to the touch on exterior when in use
for the first few uses, there may be a mild plastic taste
not the lightest of kettles either
Other than that, this kettle has what it takes to make a cup of hot tea, hot chocolate, soup, or whatever else you may need it for...all in under 4 minutes time when full!
It will last a long time too, and few ever complained about it dying at a young age. If you’re looking to make the move from your stove kettle, according to a majority of consumers…this is a good buy.
