I do. And my kettle boils water faster than the electric stove.

So when I boil larger quantities of water I prefer to boil ~2/3 in the kettle and 1/3 on the stove with a lid on for max speed; my time rarely feels more wasted than when I'm waiting for water to boil.

I also use the kettle for hot drinks, of course. I've kept one since I lived in the UK.
