For the first few runs it will make the water in it smell and taste a bit like plastic. I added a teaspoon of baking soda to the water the first time I used it, and after a few more runs with only water the smell and taste is no longer noticeable.
Pros:
-Automatic switch off. I consider this to be a must have for an electric kettle.
-Runs quietly. This might just be me, but I really appreciate that it is quiet. I'm very sensitive to loud sounds, and the first electric kettle I bought (the Black & Decker KE2020 2.0 Liter Dome Kettle) was extremely loud. I also like that it doesn't make a noise when it is done. I already have enough appliances that make loud, annoying sounds when they are done. The automatic switch off is audible.
-Cordless. This is much more convenient than a kettle with a cord. Previously I had to either unplug my kettle when it was done and try to keep the cord out of the way and out of the sink while I poured, or try to maneuver it so that I could pour with it still plugged in. It was a pain; this kettle is not. It is very easy to take off and put on the base.
-Fast. I don't remember the exact times but it takes about 3-4 minutes to boil a liter and about 6 to boil the max 1.8 liters.
-Lid is easy to open/close. There is a handle on the top that you lift back a bit to unlock it, and then you can swing the lid up (if the kettle is level it will stay up). My previous kettle had a lid that came off completely, and the locking mechanism would sometimes get stuck. This one works smoothly and is comfortable to handle.
-Easy grip handle. This isn't visible in the product pictures, but it is nice.
-On/off light. This also isn't visible in the product pictures. On top of the handle there is a small orange light that is on when the kettle is on, and off when it is off.
Cons:
So far I don't have any. I don't consider the plastic smell a con because it is something to be expected from a plastic kettle, and because it will go away after a few uses. If it doesn't go away after 5-8 boils, as some other reviewers complained about, try adding a bit of baking soda or white vinegar to the water.
I should note that this kettle has the same inner heating element as my previous kettle, which rusted, so I expect that the same will happen to this one eventually.
[EDIT]
Less than a year after I purchased this, something went wrong with the heating coil and it stopped functioning. I contacted the supplier and they offered to send a replacement if I sent in my broken kettle. Since I would have had to pay the shipping to do that, I opted to just order a new one off of Amazon for about the same price. I've had no problems with the new kettle. Hopefully it will last longer, but even if it doesn't I am happy enough with this kettle to just keep buying them.
As a side note: I have a friend who purchased this same model years ago and it is still functioning normally, so I don't think my experience with it breaking within a year is necessarily typical.
The only potential concern is the water inside directly contacts the plastic. If you stick your nose into the kettle after it has stopped boiling, yes, the vapors smell a little bit plastic. But, if you transfer that same water to a mug, and sniff again, you don't notice any smell at all, so I can only presume that the smell is not from something leaching into the water. I don't notice any impact on taste either. You cannot smell it otherwise, you have to really stick your nose in the kettle. Also, after 4 months of use, the smell has gone away even if you try to search it out. So, in a nutshell, it has all positives, no negatives, even if it was $100 it would be the best one out there, but it is not $100, it's the cheapest one.
