That, and if you're suggesting that boiling water is "only one thing," I'm thinking you need to cook more. Are you saying that you would use an electric kettle to boil water to use for a lot of things?

why would i use an electric kettle when i could just boil the water on the stove On top of this, electric kettles break/fail waaay more than stove top kettles.

I have a tea pot that I use on the stove top. I also have a gas stove, so if I lost power I could still heat up water to make cup of soup or tea. I can also take it out camping with me to boil water for tea or instant coffee over the fire.
So it makes more sense to just use the tea pot. --- 3DS FC Scott 0533-5781-3558 Pokemon: Pidgey, Woobat, Rufflet ... Copied to Clipboard!

That's just flagrantly untrue. You need to balance how much space you have available with how much you want that dedicated device, obviously, but otherwise there's no reason not to have a waffle iron if you want waffles, or a coffee maker if you want coffee. Some things do actually need a dedicated device (or at least are so much easier with a dedicated device that it's sensible to have one). You can use both your examples for other things than just those. --- Gamertag: Kegfarms, BF code: 2033480226, Treasure Cruise code 318,374,355, Steam: Kegfarms ... Copied to Clipboard!

Are you saying that you would use an electric kettle to boil water to use for a lot of things? Like even food and stuff? I actually use an electric kettle to boil ALL water I need to use. So, if I'm making soup, or rice, or veggies, I'll actually boil the water in the kettle first, when that is almost done, I'll put the pot on my stove and turn the stove top on, then pour the water into the pot. It the fastest way to bring water to a boil. For me, at least. --- I love the Power Glove. It's so bad --- PSN & Wii U: BrunyBrunz Nintendo Switch: SW-7367-4887-2583 ... Copied to Clipboard!
