I had high hopes for this kettle. I loved the size and the looks. I've researched until I'm half-crazy for a plastic free electric kettle and I thought this was going to be it. BUT...the lid is plastic inside and there is a plastic holder for the plastic filter at the spout. I tried removing these and it will boil but will not turn off when the filter is not in place. I called the customer service number and spoke to someone who said the plastic is BPA free. Doesn't matter. Plastic can still leach out estrogen like chemicals. Had to send it back. HAS ANYONE FOUND A REALLY PLASTIC FREE (inside) ELECTRIC KETTLE?
