Bodum Clara Borosilicate Kettle by Ami Kealoha
Made from near-indestructible borosilicate glass, Bodum's new Clara kettle makes tea time into a better-tasting and more visual experience. The non-porous glass doesn't give off any odors or flavors, which is a must for the more delicate white and green teas out there. It's suitable for use on gas, ceramic or electric stovetops, as well as for use in microwaves (provided the lid and whistle are off).
Overall, we dig the compact size, quality materials, the dash of color and the laboratory feel of the white text printed on its surface—who ever said tea time had to be precious?
The Clara is $60 from Bodum.

Toaster Challenge
The household toaster serves a simple purpose, but some models do it better than others. At CH we take this responsibility very seriously, and in hopes of separating the best from the average, we recently pitted four models from different manufacturers in a head-to-heat toast-off and recorded our highly subjective results. The toasters we used were the Alessi SG68, Viking VT200, Breville Smart Toaster BTA820XL...
