Good, but not great quality.

The base of my kettle stopped working suddenly after the warranty expired. It lasted four years, but at this price point I expected better. The kettle worked fine while I had it, though it did beep a lot.

Beeping alerts sound like a dump truck in reverse

Liked all but one feature that is quite annoying and should be optional (be able to be turned off): the loud multiple beeping alerts. Every time a change in temp is made, and when the temp is reached. Ended up paying more for the Fellows that is wonderfully quiet. Donating the Cuisinart to a work space lounge where it can sonically compete with the microwave
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I have had my tea kettle for about six months and just this month bought one for a friend. It is everything all the reviews I read (and videos I watched)before buying said it would be. You can easily adjust the temperature; it heats the water quickly; it pours easily without spilling; and it is lovely to look at! If you are a big fan of all kinds of teas, as I am, you cannot go wrong with this tea kettle.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I love this gooseneck kettle. It’s sleek and easy to use. My only issue is that it gets dirty easily bc of the texture on the exterior

This gooseneck kettle is fast boiling, well made, and good looking.
I use it every day and it boils water noticeably faster than my previous kettle. This comes with a single downside: the water makes many loud sounds that are like small explosions. While this is not a problem it is something to be aware of if you are intending to use this in a noise sensitive place. The high wattage and fast boiling means that some of the larger pockets of steam collapse to create these very loud popping sounds (not like a rolling boil, discrete and explosive).
The construction and packaging are high quality. The base is sturdy and doesn’t slide around with normal use. The handle is comfortable and there is a small vent in the lid to direct the steam away from your hands when you align the arrows on the lid (a very nice little feature). The construction feels sturdy while being fairly lightweight. The buttons are responsive and I haven’t accidentally pressed one yet. You do have to hold the power button down to turn it on while just a tap will turn it off, again, a nice little detail.
The aesthetics of the kettle are nice. It is understated, in a nice matte black finish. The base is functional while not being ugly. It blends into a modern set of kitchen tools without causing visitors to wonder what it is (unlike some coffee grinders). In general, it leans masculine, modern, industrial, and minimal in the visual design but it isn’t an eye sore.
I really enjoy this kettle and I won’t have any issues using it until either I break it or it gives out. There are two things I would offer as a way to take this from a 4 to a 5 for the next generation of the GK1 (maybe GK2?). The first is a more apparent max fill line. I am regularly using my kettle in the dark mornings and it can be hard to see the max fill line on the inside of the kettle. It there was a small bit of material that I could use as a gauge it would help in low light uses. The second is the ability to convert the temperature reading to Celsius. I know this is not a feature that most Americans would ask for but I was very surprised to find out I could only use Fahrenheit (maybe this has to do with the 5 degree granularity but I am unsure).
I would recommend this kettle to most people for pour over coffee and other electric kettle needs.

Wonderful kettle. This works incredibly well, heats up fast, and holds the temperature.
If you use up all the water, make sure to not place the kettle back on the stand. This took some getting used to, but not a big deal.
The safety feature kicks in and it beeps and shows Error on the unit. Not a big deal, just wish there was a way to prevent without waiting on the base to “time out” before placing the kettle back on it.
This is minor though. The actual functionality and usability are a 5/5
I would recommend this to a friend!

Pretty perfect. Don't like the steam valve on the lid - even though it has arrows to line up, I often forget. Have to hold the on button down for some time to get it going - helpful for safety I suppose but not needed in our household. Dislike that the button is lit red 24/7. Looks nice on the counter. Easy to use for pour overs and other detailed pours. I appreciate the temperature options being preset and the guide on what to use for coffee and different teas. Replaced a Brewista I loved that went belly up after a year and was outside the warranty period.

The loud, repeat, incessant beeping for every single thing is overwhelming, I would not buy this product again or suggest it to someone else
