The base of this unit wore out just after the warranty ran out. We called Cuisinart to buy a replacement and were informed that they don't sell the base by itself and thus we needed to replace the entire unit. This is a colossal waste of money and resources. We will be looking elsewhere for our next kettle and other appliances, as well.
