Query: Nice while it worked!

We purchased this Breville electric kettle a few years ago and it was great while it worked. Heats up fast. Turns itself off and a bell dings when it boils. Unfortunately, things began breaking down. First, the light went out. Not a big deal since it wasn't necessary for the overall function. Then, we'd flip the switch to the "on" position and nothing would happen at all unless we removed the pot from the base and repositioned it. This was very inconvenient and annoying, because you had to listen to hear whether or not the pot had "kicked on," so we called Breville support and they kindly sent us a new base. That worked for a couple of weeks and then the same problem was back. This time when we called, Breville was not so supportive. So now we have a lovely stainless steel pot that really can only function as a pricey flower vase! For the price we paid, I would expect better quality. Too bad few things are meant to last more than a few years anymore!
