Capresso 259.04 H2O Plus Glass Water Kettle

The Capresso 259.04 H2O Plus electric hot water kettle is made of German heat resistant glass and has easy to see ounce markings. The Capresso's elegant glass kettle design allows you to see the water as it bubbles and boils and the handle lights up with the glow of a blue light, making this a great conversational piece while you're waiting for the water to boil.

The cordless electric tea pot is removable from the heating base and the heating element is completely concealed. This hot water kettle offers a 1 1/2 quart capacity and an auto shutoff safety feature. The Capresso hot water pot has a small footprint of just 6 1/4" x 8" making this a good looking choice for a desktop electric hot water dispenser.



Pros
  • Visually stimulating design of see through glass and light up handle.
  • Boils water quickly for brewing the perfect cup of coffee or black tea.
  • Very small footprint so the Capresso kettle would be perfect for office desks or dorm rooms.
  • Kettle is detachable and swivels 360 degrees from the heating base.
  • The electric kettle is cordless for easy pouring.
Cons
  • Small capacity of 1 1/2 quarts (1.42 liters).
  • Can only bring water to a boil, no temperature settings.
  • A bit on the expensive side in comparison to other electric water kettles that offer the same functions.
