Ah, a change of plans.

Rather than buying an electronic water kettle, I am planning on buying an all stainless one.  No plastic, no glass, no electronics.  You have to spend a solid extra extra.  And I will check the thing out thoroughly.  If it's not what it was sold as, I'll send it right back, and keep looking.

I don't want to be throwing a simple think, like a water kettle, away every three years.  For one, I'm out a water heater until the new one arrives.  But, as well, who knows what is in those.  This last one looked like it was metal, stainless.  But was it?  I just don't know.  And, the one I am buying, is... better.  In every way.  If expensive.

I have seen many with mostly metal frames, but with plastic on the spout, or handle, or elsewhere.  You have to know that one steam over, and that will be done.  It'll melt.  Or burn.  I figure those have a five year life, at best.  The plastic, even if it doesn't burn/melt, will eventually just crumble.  I've seen that too, myself.  Those, as well, are short lived, and made to be short lived.

I had ordered an electric one.  Then, realizing that just wasn't right for me, I tried to stop the order.  And, for once, they did.  Quite often they'll say it's just too late, then still not send it for a week?  Jerks.  I always try to catch the delivery on those, and sent the pack back.  Jerks.

I am sure hoping it is cool enough upstairs.  If I doubt it.  Bleh.  Again, goodnight.
