Anyone got one?

My wife has developed a certain gleam in her eye which I blame on these
incessant cookery programmes.

Comments about instant death to the elderly or very young have so far
fallen on deaf ears.

Heh Heh! Years ago there was a device called a "Creda Corvette" I
spent many happy hours repairing them. Did exactly this job. Now
disappeared for good reasons.
I would cut her credit card up. It's just another passing fad gadget.
Any spare cash you have, donate to me, Heh Heh!
you want a quick and efficient supply of boiling water get one of
these jugs with the lift-off ability. Marvellous, boils a cupfull of
water in seconds (or several cupfulls) and you can just lift it off
and pour without unplugging. Element is flush plate, easily cleaned
with vinegar for limescale etc.
The circular plug one are best, they go on anyway round without having
to align them up.

I have a kettle that does all that - flat boiling plate, circular plug.
Agreed - wouldnever have a none plate kettle again.
