Occasional, Recurring Kamenstein Lust

I can't in any way justify $180 for a tea kettle, especially when mine works fine, but if I could, I would bid on this. Those steam-powered rockets are just the coolest thing ever.

Very cool! Too expensive for me, too, and I don't think I could tip it with that kind of handle without spilling. But I have my mother's kettle, which is good, too.

It is deeply lust-worthy.

Oh, I already have a switched, cordless electric kettle -- a snazzy red-anodized jobbie -- and it is just as good as a British kettle would be here (i.e. lacking 220 mains electricity). I am well set in the kettle department, and mine is quite handsome to boot. But it does not have a trio of rockets that whizz round the top, venting steam when it boils, which is what is so unutterably cool about the Kamenstein kettle.

Red anodized, eh? Not white polypropylene? A person of taste, perhaps. Yeah, I must admit, not one but three rockets is cool.
