Rating: - Great Little Water Kettle
Excellent little appliance for the price. In an office with no coffee bar you have to either get water and heat it in the microwave or use someones coffee maker and heat the water. In my office the only good place to get water is a water fountain that is refrigerated water and it takes 3 - 4 minutes in the microwave to heat it. This little pot takes 27 ounces of chilled water and heats it to a boil in less time that the microwave takes to heat one small cup. It's sturdy construction and small foot print are great for my small cubical. The pour spout pours a concentrated stream without splashing. The lid locks on good, but removes easily. It is easy to clean. The only way it could be improved would be to have a warmer mode that keeps the water warm, but it reheats the water so quick that the potential safety concerns with having it on constantly are outweighed by the few seconds you would save by not having to reheat. All around I think it is well worth the price.

This will be the second Mini Ibis I have purchased. The first is still going strong and I would like one in the office. Although a few of the other reviewers seem to have had some problems with this item my experience has been only good. The Mini Ibis heats quickly, shuts off reliably and has a somewhat longer cord than many of the other electric kettles on the market (much easier to reach existing outlets without an extension cord). As an added bonus its relatively small "foot-print" makes it easy to fit into limited spaces such as are found in many offices and apartments. Had my experience with my first Mini Ibis not been good I certainly wouldn't be buying a second one. Given the proper care needed by any electrical appliance used with water this unit has proven reliable and convenient. I have no hesitation in recommending it to anyone looking for a very reasonably priced and functional little electric kettle.

I've had this kettle for over five years. It's seen me through college (with tea and coffee all day and night) and beyond. My dad, an avid tea drinker, fell in love with it while staying with me and got one of his own. We have never had any problems with them! I'm not even replacing mine, it's still perfect, I'm just getting one as a gift for another person who wants to steal mine.
