Totally replaced by having an induction stove. Regular kettle boils in like 2 minutes, never really use the electric kettle anymore.

2 minutes on the induction stove? So like... Still slightly slower than the kettle?

[–] agamemnonymous@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 days ago (2 children)

No? My electric kettle takes like 3-4 minutes to boil the same volume I can boil in 1.5-2 on the stove. Hell I can get enough for one cup of tea boiling in like, 1 minute.

Are you in the US?

Sounds like a bad kettle.

But you can save all that kettle space for something else. Might i recommend a toaster? You could have tea and toast!
