Xiaomi Chaleira 2l

Three weeks after purchasing this kettle wouldn't shut off at all. If you don't switch it off manually it would continuously boil. Had to return. Real shame though as the product is 100% stainless steel insight!

The switch to turn it on/off is faulty or bad design. You press it on and then, 2 seconds later, it switches off.; keeps doing so on and on. Initially, it was only doing this twice for one boiling cycle, and that was quite manageable. We tried to get a replacement but had no reply and didn't bother afterwards. Now it's doing it much more often and it's really annoying.

I love this kettle however I didn’t spot the “EU” in the title and the fact that it has an EU plug isn’t mentioned anywhere in the description so I think that’s very misleading. If you can put EU in the title then you can put “note this has an EU not a UK plug” in there. I had to buy a decent adapter as the plug is also not the flat EU type. A bit annoying because otherwise the kettle is really nice and minimal.

It’s simply the most beautiful kettle I have ever owned

Is the best electric kettle i haver had! Is beautiful, minimal, clean design and works very well. I was very surprised to a brande like Xiaomi make a product like this, with such a great design. I had one design from Jasper Morrison, that he made for Rowenta, but is dead now, the plastic start deteriorating and compromised the quality of the water. This one is all inox inside, the finish is perfect the quality is suberb. For those like that looks for minimal and clean design this product is great.
