Yes, it's plastic, but it's very light and I assume doesn't leach chemicals into the water. Anyway, it seems solid, but I've only used it a few dozen times.
The reason I even came to this review page is to see if others were having occasional trouble with the on/off switch. And I see others have mentioned the on-off swirch can be finicky, especially if you have wet hands (or a wet thunb to be precise). Maybe the swith needs more of a ridge or grooves to have a better grip.
Also as others mention, the lid doesn't easily come off, but it's also nice that the lid doesn't get separated. it doesn't need to be reattached, and it opens with a press of a button.
It's a great kettle in my view, though I have little experience with other models.
I more recently bought a larger electric kettle with a glass carafe. Soon the water left unsightly but oh-so-visible deposits. The Bodum is opaque, so the deposits are not visible. It is an attractive, simple no-nonsense design - could say elegant - and does its job well. This one is a keeper and is used almost every day. The glass one goes to the cottage.
Reviewed in the United States on March 22, 2024
I read all of the reviews before purchasing & noted some negative experiences other purchasers reported. Thankfully, I have not experienced any of those problems. Maybe it’s because I ordered the white 2-cup kettles (so that I can see the water at the bottom of the kettle). Or that I only use it twice a day. Or that I’m willing to wait 5 minutes for my water to boil. Who knows? What I do know is that this kettle meets all of my needs. I even gifted one to a friend who had admired mine during a visit. (She loves it, too.)
BTW, I’ve been asked where I got the protective cover for my kettle. It’s a BAGSPRITE can opener cover I found right here on Amazon. It’s the perfect size for this 2-cup kettle.
I am pleased with this new Bodum kettle, but will unplug it each time after use.

En cuanto al uso de teteras o hervidores eléctricos, es algo que creo no puede faltar en ningún hogar, es eficiente y notablemente más rápido que hacerlo en la estufa tradicional u horno de microondas, en 3 o 4 minutos ya tienes lista el agua casi hasta el punto de ebullición, por lo que es ideal para cualquier uso donde necesites agua muy caliente.
