Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Bodum 5410-01USA Mini Ibis 27-Ounce Electric Water Kettle
Customer Review: Base meltdown
Summary: 3 Stars
This was a GREAT addition to my kitchen gadgets, that is, until after about 6 months of daily use, the base had a meltdown. The problem wasn't JUST that the base melted (where the contacts meet the kettle) but because of the meltdown it didn't trigger the automatic shut-off. (I had gone to check it because it seemed, all of a sudden, it was taking a lot longer for the kettle to click off).
I hated to have to stop using it because it was quick and quiet when it was working. As for the exposed heating element in the bottom of the kettle, I never thought it posed a problem.
Description of Bodum 5410-01USA Mini Ibis 27-Ounce Electric Water Kettle
The miniature Ibis is sized to boil water for one. Its modern Scandinavian design makes it an attractive office companion for boiling water to make tea or coffee. And, with its reasonable price, this kettle travels well to college to make instant noodles in a dorm room. Made of heavyweight polypropelene plastic with a copper-sheathed, nickel-plated heating element, the Mini Ibis holds a maximum of 27 fluid ounces of water (about 5 cups). It must be filled to a minimum of 7 fluid ounces--just enough to cover the heating element--to operate. Plugging the unit in and flipping up the switch below the kettle's handle turns on the power. The heating process is rapid and quiet: it takes only 4 minutes to boil 27 ounces of water and the sound is almost imperceptible. For safety purposes, the Ibis automatically shuts off after boiling and has a locking lid to prevent spilling and a frosted handle for a secure grip.Teakettles & Hot Pots
