Buyer's feedback: 5 out of 5 stars - * Proctor Silex Electric Kettle ...
Proctor Silex K2070H 1-Quart Automatic Electric Kettle, WhiteThis product is great for boiling water fast. It is very convient for me, I love using this for my tea, hot chocolate or hot cereal.I have one at work and another one on my RV.



Buyer's feedback: 5 out of 5 stars - We bought three of it!
We've bought three of the same product. One for home, one for my husband's office, and one for my school dorm. And I think it a good gift for single friend. It does the job well and I cannot think of anything to complain.



Buyer's feedback: 3 out of 5 stars - * You get what you pay for ...
It's probably better if you don't use it everyday, but in the winter I am drinking tea almost everyday. It works fine, but eventually you will see that the metal from the coil starts to wear off and the plastic starts to melt. Also not very easy to clean.



Buyer's feedback: 4 out of 5 stars - Highly recommended
We bought one of these for our large office kitchen. It's worked beautifully and has seen a lot of use. A product that can withstand multiple users is a recommended product in my book. We have had various products to heat water over the years and they all wore out or broke in a year or so. One appliance we tried had the heating element inside the carafe and gave the water a burned plastic taste. The Proctor Electric Kettle is over 2 years and works like new.

My only complaint (and why it didn't get five stars) is how the lid opens - I have problems with that since it doesn't tilt all the way open to make adding water as easy as possible. But it opens wide enough to fit under the faucet. The unit sits nicely on its base. I like that the cord isn't attached to the carafe itself - that's a positive safety and style feature.

There are pricier models of electric kettles that look more elegant that may have more bells and whistles, but for the price, this one is well worth the money.





Buyer's feedback: 1 out of 5 stars - * Plastic smell won't go away! ...
Even after the kettle is cooled down, the smell of melted plastic remains.

I was looking for an electric kettle to boil water for coffee and tea. Want to be more energy efficient, so thought this would help save electricity, rather than putting on the stove just for a cup of hot water.

It didn't even occur to me when I was looking at this kettle, that it would be a problem, being made of plastic. Silly me! I bought this on the 4 stars and high recommendations in this thread. It was a Big Mistake. The kettle is plastic with an exposed heating unit in the bottom. Each time it heats, the plastic must leach into the water, if I can smell it permeating the kitchen! This may be a worse health issue than Teflon being cooked into every dish made with a Teflon-coated pan! This is the same thing, 'lon' means being made out of a petroleum product, heating and eating plastic whether in a Teflon pan or in this plastic water-boiler.

Is drinking daily doses of liquified plastic healthy?
Is breathing in plastic gases every morning healthy?

Don't know what to do with it. I'd give it away but I don't think anyone should use be drinking a cup of petroleum and chemical additives every day.

And to Proctor-Silex: Eating our daily bread is necessary to sustain life. Food and nutrition is the first way to health. I hope you can make a kettle like this but out of safe materials. We need healthy, safe appliances to use daily in our homes.

Thanks.

On paper, the Mio DigiWalker P550 looks to be an attractive gadget for the mobile professional, combining the capabilities of a PDA and GPS into one device. However, its poor battery life and subpar navigation skills tell a different story.

Though it won't appeal to the masses quite yet, the Nokia N800 Internet Tablet is a nice, portable device for on-the-go Web browsing, and it has some worthy upgrades.

Though it has a few design and performance glitches, the Sony Ericsson W300i is a quality, basic MP3 cell phone.

Diesel vehicles have nearly a 50-percent market share in Europe, thanks to tax incentives and diesel-friendly legislation across the EU. Diesels are so passé there that you can buy a BMW 730d and no one will think it odd that your luxury car burns oil. Pull up in a diesel 7-Series in America and people would leer at you like you've alighted from an amphibious vehicle reeking of saltwater and dead trout.

But now, thanks to the oft-reported combo of newly-raised CAFE standards, not-so-newly-raised gas prices, and the 50-state diesel engine, GM, Ford, and Chrysler are about to dip more than a hesitant toe into the diesel game. Chrysler offers a diesel in the Grand Cherokee, but soon all three automakers will offer diesels in their best-selling lineups of light trucks -- the Dodge Ram 1500 is expected to offer a 50-state diesel after 2009. Light trucks are being used to lead the charge since those buyers stand to gain the most with the least amount of (perceived) sacrifice.

Diesels currently have 3.2-percent of the American market. Some estimates put them at 15-percent by 2015. That's a huge leap, and diesel still has plenty of hurdles. Diesels will come with a cost premium over gasoline-engined cars. That should be easy enough to conquer -- incentives and some quick cost and longevity calculations should convince people of the benefit. The real hurdle is the nagging issue of perception. The plan will probably be to attack that with a price that makes the proposition unbeatable. Said Chrysler's director of environmental affairs, "If it's priced right, we can sell diesel here. Diesel can give you an immediate poke in fuel economy -- 20 to 40 percent. Not many technologies can deliver that today."

Lucario and the Mystery of Mew, the eighth Pokémon movie, ranks as one of the best features in this popular franchise. Director Kunihiko Yuyama and writer Hideki Sonoda sensibly keep the adventures and threats to a scale that's appropriate for the characters. (The first movies put the world at risk, and while Ash Ketchum is a good kid, he's not someone who can credibly save the planet.) Ash, Brock, Max, and May journey to Cameron Palace for a tournament that celebrates the valor of Prince Aaron, who saved the realm from destruction 1,000 years ago. Ash and Pikachu win, but the mischievous Mew kidnaps Pikachu, whom he's befriended. Prince Aaron's Pokémon companion Lucario awakens from the victor's staff to lead Ash and the gang to the Tree of Beginning, a mountain that is also a living entity. Ash risks his life to rescue Pikachu, proving the depth of their friendship to Lucario. The film includes lots of CG effects, most of which work well with the drawn animation: the earlier Pokémon films tended to look like two different movies spliced together.

The two-disc set also includes The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon: A 10th Anniversary Special. In this 40-minute adventure, Dr. Yung invites Misty and Ash to take part in a special tournament on his new battle system. Yung creates formidable Mirage Pokémon from raw data, culminating in a super-version of Mewtwo, the powerful psychic Pokémon from the first features. Once again, friendship and kindness triumph over greed and arrogance, although the special ends with the words, "To be continued..." (Unrated, suitable for ages 8 and older: cartoon violence) --Charles Solomon

A CD is always more compelling when you know it's lifted from the artist's autobiography, and that's certainly the case with Confession, Usher's first record since 2001's 8701. The Atlanta singer's string of hits over the past decade have been decidedly PG-13 rated, almost veering towards teen pop, but he's changed all that on this co-produced offering, which he claims is "the real him." It would be too simplistic to just brand this record a break-up record, chronicling his public split with TLC's Rozonda "Chili" Thomas; it is that, but so much more. It would be more accurate to call this Usher's coming of age record, bridging the gap from boy to man, as he navigates the emotional fallout from the disintegration of his relationship, and the events that led up to it--real or imagined. But other than a guilty conscience, it seems unclear why Usher feels compelled to disgorge his secret life, as he documents his infidelities, transgressions, and emotional perfidy in the album's prodigious twenty one songs, that range from insinuating sultry R&B grooves to the decidedly crunky "Yeah," which pairs an insistent keyboard romp with Lil' Jon's assertive beats, and Ludacris' rather humid rhymes. --Jaan Uhelszki

Fade to Black is a document of Jay-Z’s self-proclaimed final concert; a grand affair that took place before a sold-out crowd at New York’s Madison Square Garden in November 2003. (But anyone who follows celebrity news knows that Jay-Z was out of retirement and back performing at the Garden just a year later.) Fade to Black is a legitimately powerful record of a truly historic event in the annals of rap. Muttering offhand narration with typical bored, streetwise affect, Jay hails the concert as a momentous occasion for being the first time a hip-hop show was allowed to headline at the Garden.

It’s unlikely that the full impact of the live performances will hit home to viewers unfamiliar with Jay-Z and his Roc-A-Fella Records stable of artists. Another frustration is trying to identify the array of visitors who trade raps on Jay’s stage. Included in the star-studded lineup are Missy Elliott, Foxy Brown, Pharell, Ghostface Killah, Beanie Sigel, Memphis Bleek, and R. Kelly. One unmistakable figure--and we do mean figure--is Jay’s squeeze Beyonce, who raises the temperature and the roof with her skimpy outfit, flowing hair, soulful yowl, and sexed-up dance routine that leaves her boyfriend and the whole of Madison Square Garden slack-jawed with animal desire.

Twenty cameras captured the event, and some of the most powerful sequences are sweeping moves across the swirling, blissed-out masses as they lip sync along in perfect unison with Jay-Z’s complex, profane, quick-witted raps. Less effective are intermittent cutaway segments that show the artist in various studio settings working up beats and rhymes. These amateurish home video breaks may give some insight to Jay’s perfectionism and dedication to his craft, but they detract from the visceral power of the beautifully executed performance footage. --Ted Fry

On his third studio effort (and fourth overall), 22-year-old R&B/pop star Usher Raymond makes the not-so-simple transition from post-teen heartthrob to love man. He does it with solid songs and a generous helping of charisma and vocal acumen, making this much-delayed collection a hot summer treat. Usher is aided in his musical efforts by renowned hit-makers like the Neptunes, Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis (who deliver soaring ballads like "Can U Help Me"), Jermaine Dupri, and new jack Edmund Clement who penned the irresistible single "U Remind Me." With catchy tracks and emotive vocals, Usher revs up his sex quotient and unleashes a winning blend of street-honed jams and passionate love songs. --Amy Linden
