Totally satisfied
Bought this about 6 weeks ago and use it almost every day to make tea or dissolve soup base. It heats 5 cups of room temperature water to boiling in 6 minutes and 20-something seconds. The max capacity is about 5-1/2 cups (1.2 L). I don't know if it boils water any faster than a kettle on the stove, but it's nice that it shuts itself off when the water boils. The on/off switch is on the top of the handle. There's an indicator light on the left side (handle to your right) to show that it's on.
The interior is stainless steel with the small exception of the sight tube. The plastic sight tube marked in liters faces the inside of the handle. The location makes it a little awkward to read the sight tube. Two small plastic rivets visible inside are the openings to the site tube and hold the handle on, but I don't detect any trace of a plastic taste. Only the bottom rivet is ever immersed in water. The top rivet is above the maximum capacity of the pot. That rivet and...
Bad kettle
This kettle's automatic shutoff began to operate sporadically less than 24 hours after it arrived. The shutoff is unreliable.
Get This One!
Having never heard of the Tayama Brand before I was hesitant to buy this one. I felt buying it from Amazon was safe. After four weeks of daily use I can say at this time...it's just fine! It looks very nice, heats quickly the way you want it to and the price was certainly right.
