This kettle is defenitely a bomb for the price they offer it, even ive used it on many occasions when i was sick and needed warm water, but im planning to scrap it soon, why?because heating a platic kettle to a crazy 100°c will defenitely cause the water to get platic polluted which if used in the long run will lead to cancer please dont subjext yourself to this level of plastic hazard, investing a few bucks extra on the metal version will not make us loose anything big.No matter what grade plastic is used at the end of the day plastic is plastic.
