      Not the ones I was thinking of. Great, you found a cheap kettle at mediamarkt, good for you. Here’s a 1500W one, also not the one I was thinking of. I was thinking of one I once had. The one that’s the reason why my current one is 3000W and wide enough to not risk tipping over.

        People who buy consumer electronics at Amazon from made up Chinese throwaway brands are beyond rescue.

        They don’t care if their products are unsafe because they will never face consequences.
        You can’t even be sure if the material is food grade.
        MediaMarkt does, because it’s their own brand and would damage their reputation and financial bottom line

          No argument from me there but when I bought that 1500W kettle Amazon was still a book shop. I’m not saying that 15 Euro were a good price but it’s what I think REWE (as in the supermarket, do they still use that brand for physical stores?) sold it to me for because I couldn’t be arsed to make a trek into the city to visit a proper appliance store.
