jgan85 - Love the kettle. Sadly, it appears to be unavailable in the US market (110/120Volt) because Americans don't appreciate design.

Watcha talking about - we've got Target!

Oh, yeah! I forgot about that bastion of good design.

Let me clarify. Americans (generally) don't care about good design or quality. They just want a "good deal".

to get a do hit chair from droog for someones birthday/going away present would make a fun evening.

If you guys are in amsterdam check out the frozen fountain. they sell also a lot of droog but also different dutch designers as well.

Anyway I bought these as a gift for my friend.
