## Description

desertcart.com: Proctor Silex Electric Tea Kettle, Water Boiler & Heater Auto-Shutoff & Boil-Dry Protection, 1000 Watts for Fast Boiling, 1 Liter, White: Home & Kitchen

Review: Total Satisfaction with Quality, and Performance. - Great product and value. You cannot beat the price, quality, and value.
Review: Great Value for the Money - I moved from an apartment that had a gas range to one with an electric range. When I wanted to boil water, the element had to heat up before the water could heat up. Wastes a lot of time and probably electricity. Same for the microwave. I wasn't sure if an electric kettle was the answer, so I chose this small, inexpensive one. It's really terrific! Since I only use single servings of boiled water, I was concerned about having to have a minimum amount and wasting water. It turns out the minimum water level is about 1-3/4 cups. A perfect amount for tea, soups, etc., with maybe a little left over. It boils the minimum water within 2 minutes, a full pot in about 5 minutes, depending on the temperature of the water you start with. Mine from the fridge. If I had one complaint it would be the length of the cord. It's very short, and I'm guessing this is to discourage you from filling and pouring with the kettle plugged in (you're not supposed to do that). I agree with what some other people have said about a magnetic connection in the power cord, but what do you really want for eleven bucks? There are kettles with them, you just have to pay for it. You would never expect one at this price point. As for other complaints listed in these reviews, I'll address them: it does smell the first few times you use it. But those first few times are supposed to! That's why the instructions tell you to boil two or three kettles full of water and rinse it out several times after. After that, while you can still smell plastic if you stick you nose in it, it doesn't leach into the smell or taste of the water. Another poor review said the water was yellow. That was either a defective kettle, or the person couldn't tell that it was the light reflecting off the beige plastic inside making the water inside look yellow. The water actually is not colored. And for the people who say they need to boil their water to kill all myriad of bacteria, then an electric kettle with shut-off safety features was just not a good choice. It's not a bad product. ONE CAVEAT! Do not rely on the pre-printed markings for measurement. They are way off. Otherwise, I'm pleased with my kettle and I'm hoping it lasts a long time. For the price, it's more than worth it. UPDATE 12/22/09 -- Just thought I'd add that now, almost three years later, my kettle is still working and I still think it was a great purchase. UPDATE 8/8/11 -- Still working, still loving it!

## Features

- CONVENIENT SERVING WITH DETACHABLE CORD: The cord detaches from the electric kettle for easy serving. Boil and carry hot water to the table or anywhere you're serving hot beverages or need hot water. Perfect for adding boiling water to soups or recipes.
- PEACE OF MIND: The electric water kettle automatically turns off when it reaches a boil. Boil-dry protection keeps the kettle from scorching if it runs out of water.
- EASY TO FILL: With convenient dual water windows, you can view the water level from either side of the hot water kettle. And the pull-up handle makes it easy to lift the lid to add water.
- SIMPLE TO USE: With a simple on/off switch, this kettle is very easy to use so you can boil water quickly without any fuss. The switch illuminates when the kettle is on.
- FAST BOILING WITH 1000 WATTS: With 1000 watts, the electric kettle boils up to 1 liter of water faster than a microwave and safer than a stovetop. Make a quick, hot cup of tea or French press coffee anytime without a long wait — great for hectic mornings.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is there bpa in the plastic material?**
A: BPA Background - Is BPA Safe?
The truthful answer is that the subject is controversial and no one knows with certainty if BPA is or is not safe.

BPA (bisphenol A) is a chemical used in producing various types of plastics, commonly polycarbonates used in food packaging (e.g., baby bottles, plastic sippy cups, water bottles) and resins to coat the interior of food packages, including cans (e.g, soup, vegetables, beer).

The concern for BPA is due to it's propensity to leach from the packaging into the contained food or beverage which is subsequently ingested. BPA mimics the hormone estrogen and may affect human endocrine function. Research has reported no observed adverse effects at the FDA "safe" level of <5000 mcg/kg/day, with estimated daily ingestion of <0.5 mcg/kg/L for adults and children age two and older. Per FDA, concern for adult toxicity is "negligible." The primary concern regards toxicity in developing fetuses, infants, and children younger than two, which FDA reports as "some concern."

FDA has not restricted BPA in most food packaging materials. They have restricted BPA in baby bottles, sippy cups, and infant formula packaging, although the restriction was due to FDA regulations and not due to safety concerns. Many food producers have voluntarily eliminated BPA from their packaging.

BPA-containing plastics will have resin id code 7 although not every type of plastic with code 7 contains BPA (polycarbonates do). Look for a triangle enclosing the number 7 on the package to determine if the package might contain BPA. You may also see "PC." 

The LD50 of BPA in mice is 4g/kg of body weight [1]. If the same LD50 level exists in humans (very likely not) then an 80 kg (176.4 lb) person would have to ingest 320 g (11.3 oz) of BPA to have a 50% chance of dying from acute BPA exposure. It is extremely unlikely that one could ingest enough food or drink to die from BPA exposure [2].

In rodent studies, transmission of BPA from a breastfeeding mother to infant was insignificant at levels 100-1000 times  higher than human exposure.

BPA is unlike toxic metals such as lead or cadmium which are not naturally eliminated from the body and can accumulate to unhealthy, and even deadly, levels. Ingested BPA is rapidly absorbed, detoxified, and eliminated within 2-3 days.

Conclusion: Per FDA, BPA ingestion due to BPA leaching from packaging material is safe for adults and children age two and older.

Caveat: In packaging which has eliminated BPA, replacement chemicals such as bisphenol S (BPS) and other biphenols are often used and these chemicals are known to have endocrine effects similar to BPA. Also, the various types of plastics are composed of thousands of chemicals, many of which have not been studied for harmful effects in humans. The effects due to leaching of chemicals in plastics from food packaging into food are not all known.

Is This Kettle BPA Free?
This kettle, Proctor Silex model K2070Y, is longer marketed on the Proctor Silex website. The replacement model number is K2070PS, which has the same dimensions and power as well as the same appearance. The K2070PS webpage does not specify any BPA content, however, the "kettles" FAQ  states, "All of our kettles are BPA free in all food zones."

Conclusion: The model K2070Y is very likely BPA free.

1 The LD50 is the median lethal dose and is the dose of a toxin at which 50% of a tested population dies.

2 In a study which examined the effects of BPA ingestion on cardiac function, the BPA level in a resin-coated can of soy milk was, on average, 8.22 mcg/L. Assuming 12 oz cans, a can would contain, on average 2.92 mcg. To consume 320g of BPA drinking from these cans would require a person to drink 109,697,476 cans of soy milk.

**Q: Is this kettle supposed to automatically turn off? Because mine doesn't.**
A: The lid must be closed firmly in order for the kettle to turn off automatically, if the lid is open, it will just keep heating. I think theres a temperature sensor in the kettle which turns it off once it reaches a specific temp. And, it doesnt turn off immediately when boiling starts, it turns off maybe 10-15 seconds after the water is boiling.

**Q: Where does the little washable spout filter go? I'll be darned if I can figure out where and how to attach it. Feeling a little dumb:)**
A: Glad I wasn't the only one who felt like a fool.  But I finally got it to snap in.  Because the kettle's black it's REALLY hard to see the little "grooves" on either side the filter snaps into.  The filter itself (like a little arrowhead) pretty much points STRAIGHT down and be sure that the curved, finished side points to the FRONT of the kettle.  May take a couple of tries (like 8 or 9 for me!).  When you can snap the lid down tight, and that slotted, pointed piece lands down in front of the filter without knocking it loose, then you know you've done it.

**Q: Where cam I purchase replacement screens?  One of my old ones has a hole in it but I also need a back up.**
A: I know exactly what you are asking... The remark that quoted "I have no idea what your and it should be you're asking.  Look inside the pitcher or kettle, there is a tiny screen that needs replaced every once and awhile.  My is ripped and I wanted to buy a replacement.  Do your homework before answering any questions. If I find out where to buy the replacement screen I will let you know.  Unless you already know the answer being this was asked 5 years ago.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Lasts forever—13 years & still going!
*by C***W on March 22, 2022*

Amazon says I bought this in Feb 2009. That makes this item 13 years old at the time of this writing. It still works just as well as the day I bought it. This means I’ve used this at least 3-4x a day for 13 years. What I specifically like about this kettle is that it does NOT have a base that you set it on. I hate the idea of fumbling to find the notch to seat the kettle on a base. Plus the idea that dribbling water will get on the base seems like a bad idea. It heats quickly, has a little light when on, and automatically shuts off after a rolling boil. It is slightly smaller at 1L rather than 1.3 or 1.5 and I like it that way since I don’t usually need a full pot and I can more readily meet the “min” water level and since it’s smaller, I can get to get a quicker boil. Yes. It is entirely plastic except for the heating element which is metal. If you don’t mind that and you hate the ones with a base, you absolutely should buy this. For reference, I keep mine always plugged in (except for cleaning days) and I use a container to bring the water to the kettle, instead of bringing the kettle to the sink. I think this has contributed to extending the life of the product since I’m not always plugging and unplugging it. After 13 years, the only problem I have run into (just recently) is that when the cord is a little kinked, it won’t turn on so I have to make sure to unkink it. I plan to buy a replacement plug and keep on using this…Indefinitely. EDIT 2023–replacement cord purchased and it works beautifully.
