Electric Kettle SEK17 - Complaint
I bought the Electric kettle SEK17 a little over a month ago and used it only a few times. I turned it on and the water boils very rapidly before turning off. The last time I used it it was boiling so rapidly I turned it off manually and the rapid boiling stopped and the light went out as it should when its off. However I later got up from bed and walked by the kettle, reached above it and noticed it had not turned off but boiled all the water out. If I had not got up and noticed this it could have been disastrous. I will not have another Sunbeam product in my home after reading the reviews and forums about their products. How does this company survive with all the complaints and bad products? where are the "American standards"? Forget fixing or replacing a defective product like this for fear of burning down our house and placing my family in this kind of danger. Thank god I got up.

Word of advice...just because you turn an appliance off, doesn't mean it's off. Unplug it! Limit thermostats and such are notorious for malfunctioning and causing heating elements to overheat and cause damage.
