The switch on my new Capresso H2O stays on until it reaches a boil, even if you take it off the base or unplug it. But I can manually flip the switch to the off position if needed.

Macy's flyer says these Capresso's are on sale for $60.  They're very nice kettles.

Once you are willing to spend >$60.00 for an electric kettle,
then I think the Pino Kettle becomes a contender for purchase.
I was given one for my birthday in May, use it every day as I prep
for AP coffee.  Set the temp, and walk away.  I really like it!

Hard to beat the price & return policy of Costco.

I bought my Capresso at TJ Maxx for $40.

Do you have to be a Costco member to get that price and/or free shipping?

Peter sees the word 'free' and lights up like a Christmas tree.

Thanks for posting that Tex...they don't stock those in my local warehouse, so I had no idea they carried them.

$40/ea seems like a great price.  I paid $12 for my current Braun (which has been GREAT) off the scratch and dent at BB&B.  I think it will have a new life out at my shop.

The only thing I wish it had was the ability to set the temp, rather than the pre-sets.

100 will be great for when I'm baking bread

150 is a little too cool for AP - this is the one I'd like to be able to change.

Pino is having a sale for the older version of their kettle

Go to the bottom of the page
http://www.pino-usa2.com/shop.php

$47, including shipping, at least that's what I paid.

It is part of my work coffee setup now.

Did anyone else buy one of these "old model" Pino kettles?

http://www.pino-usa2.com/shop.php


Mine arrived yesterday and I think I'll be sending it back.  It will not hold the water at any temperature.  No matter where I set the temperature, it just blows by that setting on its way to boiling, then blows by it again on its way back down.  Instructions, such as they are, are pretty simple - just set the temperature to the desired level and the kettle will maintain it.  Am I missing something?
