We've had the first one for a month, and have just ordered a second. So far, it has worked exceptionally well. Bought the first one after using an electric oil-filled radiator-type heater for a few years. They seem generally to work well, and they feel safer to me than standard space heaters that get red hot and seem poised to set fire to anything close. Our cats like to lounge close to these things, so safety is always an important consideration. We live in NYC and have steam radiator heat that seems to switch on and off randomly, so sometimes it gets seriously chilly in our apartment. One of these little HG-450 units does the trick for the bedroom, keeping things nice and warm. I've just ordered a second unit for the second bedroom, which I use as an office. Hopefully they won't explode right after I've submitted a glowing review... If not, though, these things are excellent.

When I saw this heater I wondered why it costs this much when there are other oil-filled heaters that cost $30-40 less. I zoomed in on the product shot and noticed there are more vents on the main fin where the control panel is. If more vents means more heat, then it'll be worth it. So I took a gamble and ordered one.

The heater would be used in the living room which is an open area with a 9" high ceiling. The heating system in the house is forced air with vents in the ceiling, and since warm air rises, warming the room below to a decent temperature is practically impossible and financially prohibitive, as I use electric heat. To add insult to injury, forced air heating blows out air that creates a cold wind when it comes on, so it's not only a huge waste of money, it's also very crude and just ridiculous.

A month ago I decided to heat the room solely with space heaters. I have an electric fireplace with a heater on the lowest setting, a baseboard heater I bought a week before (Fahrenheat Baseboard Heater #FBE15002), and an old oil-filled heater. It didn't get warm and barely raised the temperature and I was quite disappointed -until I got this heater. What a world of difference! The place becomes so toasty and temps keep rising, I even have to lower it! With this 3-heater combination, residual heat flows into the rest of the downstairs area, which includes kitchen, dining room, foyer, even the powder room.

There is one downside to this heater. The timer is not really programmable and limited to only 2, 4 and 8 hours, and when set on timer, it comes on at the highest setting. But the amount of heat it gives out well makes up for this slight inconvenience.

I highly recommend this heater and I'm getting another one for my bedroom, which is a big room and my older oil-filled heaters can't handle it.

No matter what I did, it always had a very bad smell that got me a headache, I'm going to return this item right away.

It seems like it was dropped at the factory or something because the plastic on the front arrived slightly damaged.

It heats the room so I'm happy.

I also ordered "DeLonghi Oil-Filled Radiator with Overheat Audible Alarm". I like the "NewAir" heater a little better because it has a timer (just 2, 4 and 8-hour settings)

Bought this oil heater for my 88 yr old mother who moved from sunny/warm Florida to the much colder clime of Kansas. It is quiet and truly keeps her room toasty. The controls are easy for her to manage.

It takes two hours but it's worth it. My lid broke the first day I got it so now I use a saucer as a lid and it works great. Just make sure to hold it down so it doesn't fall while pouring.

i bought this product assuming it was a ge original part as described and as mentioned in other comments. what arrived was name branded " exact replacement" parts. it does work and looks identical but i feel i was mislead and over paid for an aftermarket part. i already installed the part since i needed it badly. i could have gotten a genuine ge part for cheaper but i thought it was to good to be true so spent the extra money thinking i was getting the original ge part, but i didnt. other people say they got the original heater , but i did not.

The product is not OEM as stated. Was shipped and received sooner than estimate. Installed it and has been working for past one month. 4 stars because not OEM.

Very happy! Saved a lot of $ Ordered this part, installed it last evening; the hardest part of the job was defrosting the ice block in the back of my freezer! Everything is working great. Be careful, it's a little bit sharp!

[Originally review January 2009 (3 stars), Updated July 2010]

We bought one of these for our home and liked it so much I got another for my office. It is a quick safe way to boil water. It works much better than our teapot on our conventional stove and you can leave the room without worry about all the water boiling out and a possible fire.

It is so efficient that we often use it to heat up water before putting it in a pan on the stove. It is much faster. When we are making pasta we will put a small amount of water in a large pan and fill the teapot. The water in the pot is boiling before the water on the stove. The pot is light, even when full, and has no aftertaste like I have read some of the plastic ones do.

HOWEVER, we had owned our home pot for less than six months when the 'on' switch broke off. The pot was still usable, but you have to reach in and activate it with a fingernail. It was under limited warranty, but that involved mailing it to San Diego at our own cost and sending them a check for $8 to have it returned. Including the time and materials to package it up and then drive to the post office and have it gone for 2-4 weeks wasn't worth the effort.

I have concluded we just got a lemon. Because this happened and the warranty policy was so cumbersome, I originally gave this 3 stars. But our other one is working fine and the broken piece has turned out to be a small inconvenience, so I have revised my rating to 4.6, rounding up to 5.

It's not often that one finds a product that's both visually attractive AND functionally satisfying. This kettle is one of those rare items: the shiny stainless steel body is beautiful to look at, and it boils water very very quickly! It features a nice big and sturdy handle which is very comfortable, and the spout is perfectly designed so that you'd have to be a real klutz to spill things. The cordless feature is wonderful, I tried a cheap ten dollar "Hot Pot" for a day or two and hated having to deal with the cord, plus that model doesn't have automatic shutoff despite what it says on the box---huge fire hazard! There is also a power-indicator light and water-level indicator gauge which are both handy, and I like that there is no exposed heating element inside which would be a pain to clean. Instead it's all smooth clean lines, inside and out!

Sure the outside of the kettle does get a little hot so you probably don't want to have this within reach of toddlers or anything, but if your toddlers can get up on your kitchen countertop then you have a LOT of other problems as well! I appreciated not having to deal with how plastic inevitably gets dirty-looking and sometimes leaves a funny taste in the water.

My only slight concern is that the lid needs a little bit of force to shut completely...probably some kind of insulating seal that shortens the time needed to bring water to a boil, but makes me wonder how durable that part of this kettle is going to be. Oh well, will find out in a few months or (hopefully) years, I suppose!

*UPDATED 2/14/2011: Still going strong, no complaints at all. I use it at least twice a day, most days. The lid has held up well. Highly recommend!

I bought this after I was so disappointed with a Breville one. The pot does get hot but I don't have any children or pets to worry about. The boil time is very fast and there is no coil on the inside so I do not have to worry about the build-up or rust I have experienced with other kettles. The water tastes good and clean. For this price it is very affordable! I do have to admit that the pot seems a little cheaply made, but I didn't expect much since it seems to be less than half the price of others of the same volume and style. I am very happy with this!!

Update (more than a month later): this is still working so quick and perfectly! I couldn't be happier!

Honest reviews on Aroma AWK-115S Hot H20 X-Press 1-1/2-Liter Cordless Water Kettle

After having bought and returned the stylish but overpriced Breville (which did have a bad odor as other reviewers have noted), I have owned this for seven months now and give it a very high recommendation. It gets heavy daily use in our house and functions perfectly. Yes, it is a bit noisy like all electric kettles, and it is warm/hot to the touch as it contains boiling water. Some have complained that the sight tube is under the handle and hard to read, but it's easy to get used to and it's in a protected location. I like the fact that almost all of the material which the water contacts is stainless steel (the sight tube is plastic). If this one were to wear out, I would buy another.

I bought it last month and used it over one month now. Heat quickly, looks good on the counter, easy to use and cheap.

The big problem for me is it failed to shut itself off about 10% of times, with the lid closed completely, even minutes after water boiled and the plastic handle became too hot to hold. I have to stay nearby when I using it, otherwise it could be dangerous. I contacted Aroma service people today, they told me that I can send back to repair, but I need to pay the shipping cost by myself. For a 30 dollar stuff, it is not worth it. Kind of disappointed.

New update in 1/12/2012.

I use it over two years now, almost every day. I feel good about this product now. It did fail to shut itself off around 10% of times in the first month. But it is OK after that. I guess it maybe caused by the built up water stain near the edge of cover. It made the cover close tighter to trigger the detector. I change the rate to 4 stars from 1 star. Feel surprised that this kettle last pretty long.
