Attractively housed in brushed stainless steel, the Chefman RJ11-17 Cordless Electric Kettle makes a striking presence on any kitchen counter or buffet. Use it to quickly bring up to 1.7 l of water to a rolling boil for making anything from tea, instant coffee, and hot cocoa to oatmeal, instant soup, noodles, and more. The kettle lifts off its 360? swivel base for easy filling at the sink or for graceful serving without the hassle of a power cord. It can be returned to its power source from any direction ? great for both right-handed and left-handed users. For safety, the kettle shuts itself off automatically once the water has reached a boil ? no need to worry about it boiling dry. Additional features include a comfortable stay-cool handle, non-drip pouring spout and flip-back lid for convenient filling or cleaning.
