This kettle is MADE for a coffee loving pour over freak like me. It beeps when it's reached it's temp. YAY! No more guessing when it's ready. It keeps the kettle at desired temp automatically for 30 minutes. No more cold water hitting my coffee grinds. Plus it has a count up timer so you can time your pour over perfectly. I love that you can adjust the temperature to the exact degree -- 204F it is! The simple design is great and after my other kettle broke, I did some research and this, my friends, is the best one on the market and they are members of 1% for the Planet. Thank you OXO.
I received this as a Christmas gift and think about how grateful I am for it nearly every time I use it. The precise temp control is so nice, the design is so functional and pretty and the temp maintainer is perfect for coming back for another cup. It could a bit small in the amount you can heat at once for some I would imagine, but for our 2 person household it’s perfect.

My old electrical kettle finally broke. Went back to a stovetop kettle for a while, which worked, but I missed the speed of an electric kettle in the morning. The OXO kettle is fast and the temperature dial is accurate. Appreciate that once it reaches the set temperature it maintains it - great for doing pour over coffee. Plus some baking recipes call for water at a specific temperature and the OXO delivers - no more microwaving water and testing it continuously with a thermometer. Finally, the OXO kettle is a clean, simple design and my counter doesn’t look too cluttered.
Easy to use, excellent pour control, large type temperature reading, nice compact size. Only criticism is the water level inside kettle is too faint to easily read— if laser etching could make the mark a more saturated black color it would help.
I held off on upgrading to this kettle until my old electric kettle finally stopped working and the upgrade was very very worth it. This kettle has a lot of built-in perks, gets water to temperature very quickly, and is very comfortable to handle when making pour-over coffee. I would buy it again
