How long does it take to boil half to 2/3 of the pot?

Not long, about 5-7 minutes. Put a timer on because the pot does not whistle and before you know it the pot is boiling.

It takes a good 10 min on med/ high electric. BE CAREFUL when ready to pour the steam can hit your hands and the cover is just sitting on top. i take the cover and infuser out before I pour so it does not fall.

I timed, it but I don't remember now maybe around 4 to 4 1/2 minutes, but as one who uses a lot of hot pots both in the country and out, it boils pretty quickly. US wattage was pretty good. I think it is well made and has a switch on bottom for changing voltage, just a little hard to see. My only complaint is it is a little smaller than the Bodum pot that we replace with this new one, since it broke, but it is a good all around choice other than that.

Ive never timed it. It heats up quickly but it would depend on size of pot and how much water.

About 25-30 minutes when the pot is full. Then it keeps it warm for the duration of whatever amount of water is left. To reboil the warm water, it takes about 2-4 minutes.

Jane Lewis' answer sounds right! I "reduce" the amount of electricity used by setting my timer for 25 to 30 minutes and then plugging in the top to the base when the timer rings. This gives the base time to start the boiling process.

About 5 minutes give or take to boil. I love this product but the only thing is, I'm using it more than I thought I would so I would have bought the next size up. 3.2 sounds like enough but then I started using it for other things because it is so handy.

Depends on how much you have in the pot, but usually around 2-5 minutes (depending on the type of range you have). My expereince is that electric takes longer than gas or induction.

i haven't actually timed it but it is quite fast. the cheap one we bought as a temporary fix when my good one finally wore out was so slow it drove me crazy! i would say less than 5 minutes for a full pot.

Four and 1/4 cups or One liter. That places the water level one inch from the top of the kettle. Takes 18 minutes to boil on medium heat on an electric stove.

About 2 to 3 minutes depending on how fast you turn the crank. It takes me about 2.5 minutes to grind 3/8 cup of beans (what I use to make 32 oz in a French press).

I cooked 2 full cups and it took exactly 23 minutes. I don't think for 3 cups it would be much difference.

Usually mine is done about 15 minutes after pouring it into the boiling water, depending on how hot the stove burner is.

That's how I use mine. Let the water sit about a half minute off the boil. Better for the coffee or tea that way.

Yes it does. It will bring a half liter to a rolling boil in about 2 minutes. A full kettle takes about 5 min, give or take.

2-3 minutes when at the minimum level for boiling. About 10 minutes when full.

From my experiences, 10-12 minutes, depending on the size of the eggs I am boiling.

I put cold water in. Set my induction stove to 6.5 and In 6-7 mins it's done.
