Pro Provides warm water for a long span of time
The kettle has a Keep warm mode that automatically holds the selected temperature for 30 minutes. However, if the kettle is not in use for 5 minutes it will go into sleeping mode. Fortunately, it will remember your last selection and you can get it on by lifting the kettle. This feature is convenient if you cannot make straight to the kitchen when the water has been boiled.

Cons
Con Stopped working within a year
There's a design problem with this kettle. Lots of Amazon reviewers had the same problem.
Con Not convenient for metric system users
This kettle does not have a Celsius display. Therefore, if you purchase tea outside the US, it might take a little bit of time to convert it to the right temperature.
Con Difficult to see the water level
It might be difficult to see the water level as when you pour the water, kettle fills up first, then the water level. Because of this, you might easily overfill the kettle.
Con Difficult to clean
This kettle is difficult to clean, because the top of the kettle is too narrow even for small hands to reach the bottom and the sides of the unit.
