AllOver: Small compact kettle. It is about the size of a large hamburger when fully folded. Used on a recent trip where the hotel room had no tea or coffee. With this kettle, we packed our own instant coffee and tea to enjoy in the privacy of the hotel room.
The water boils very fast! So don't leave it unattended. As per the instructions, boil water in it a few times before use. We found no aftertaste.
Airport security did request to open our carry on to inspect the kettle. We purposely left one side of the original box (describing the kettle with a picture) beside it in the suitcase.
I recommend this kettle for travel especially if your hotel does not provide free coffee or tea in room.
Final tip: Great for instant soup, noodles, oatmeal etc.

Akshay A.: Gets the job done neatly. Heats up quick. Hold the amount of water needed to cook an instant meal/instant noodles. Easy to switch between the two input voltage options.

D Wendt: Ordered this for a trip to a 4 star hotel. It has been our experience that the higher graded hotels give you a Keurig in the room (my husband is a tea drinker) or think that you will just get a pot of tea from room service (very pricey). This little kettle was just the ticket! The kettle heated water quickly and he was able to get about a 12 oz mug full for his tea. We brought along some tea bags and he was good to go! It didn't take up too much space in our luggage. Cleaning wasn't an issue as we only used it for water. I don't think it would be a good idea heating anything but water in it because it does come to a boil. Cleaning might become an issue then as well. It works well for what it is designed to do: boil water.

Rehcra: I bought this to take on trips where we'd be staying in budget hotels (with questionable or non existent coffee makers). This packs down small and is quick and easy to use. We use this with a pour over coffee dripper for good coffee to avoid a trip to a coffee shop! Unlike other reviewers, I didn't notice any bad odor or flavor - I followed the instructions and boiled water a couple of times before actually using it.

L. BlakeL. Blake: Bought this kettle for use in my camper van and it does everything needed. Collapses down for stowage, rugged enough to survive bumpy roads, expands and holds enough water for a full pot of tea.

Measured the power and it averaged about 792 watts; about 62 amps in my system (nominal 12.6VDC - 2000W PSW inverter). It takes almost exactly 6 minutes, or about 6.2 Ah to boil the full kettle.

Faster and easier that using a propane or butane stove, and no fumes in a small camper. Fill it up, plug it in, continue fixing other stuff and when the auto shut-off trips....make the tea. No waiting and watching, and no boiling over. Set it aside to cool off, have breakfast, then collapse the kettle and stow it. Easy.

I started by boiling a few kettles of water with a little white vinegar to get rid of any taste and now it's clean and clear.

Haven't had it long enough to evaluate long term reliability, but for the price it's a great buy.
