Well-made Electronic Kettle
on March 17, 2021
Posted by: Brandon N.

This is a very solid kettle; you can feel how well-built it is. Nice matte metal sides, some padding on the bottom that feels great when setting it down. The handle and the rest for thumb support makes pouring easy, and the cap seals well but comes off easily.
The temperature control makes things very easy, and the little display is pleasant to look at. I like the temperature hold feature, and that it has an option for a timer, though it's very simple at that. While I've used the timer once, I typically use my Timemore Black Mirror scale for its handier auto-timer feature (as well as being on the scale itself, which is more convenient).
Pouring is easy and precise, though I might say it would be better if the spout had a bit more curve. Also, others have commented that the max pour volume is on the low side; I'm using this mostly for pour-over so it's no problem, but when pouring hot water for a long black or other uses, it's less functional.
The reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is two-fold:
1. Price is a bit high IMO
2. The knob for temperature control is slow to adjust
2. The knob for temperature control is slow to adjust
My wife uses warm water for her daily nasal washes, and so she sets the temp lower. Switching from that to almost boiling temp takes a LOT of turning.
Overall definitely happy with the product, but just wish a couple of things were very slightly different. Would recommend.

Just wish the base was made of of higher quality materials instead of plastic though

I love this kettle

I had initially bought the pink kettle and had some serious issues with it (it was malfunctioning but also the wooden top split and fell off after one week!). But I spoke with customer service and they allowed me to exchange it for free for the copper kettle. I am completely in love with it! It's gorgeous. It works so well for perfect pour overs. It's quiet. Making coffee with it is a joy and I highly recommend! I love it! The customer service made it really easy to replace too. Thank you for making such a beautiful kettle!

A very elegant, convenient kettle

The kettle looks very sleek and elegant. Operating it is very intuitive. Water boils fairly fast, though I feel the benefits of the 1200 W power. I also like the timer function—it makes timing your brew so much easier. The thing I don’t like about my kettle is the handle does feel a little loose when I hold it.

Loose lid and boiling over issues
on March 11, 2021
Posted by: Grant B.

Out of the box this kettle had a very loose lid. The first time I used the kettle the lid popped off and hot water sprayed everywhere.
I didn’t realize I needed to turn the temperature down to prevent boil over (I am at 5500ft in elevation)—not something I’d had to think about with other electric kettles. But even in turning down the temperature to compensate for my elevation, the lid would frequently pop off if I filled the kettle anywhere near the “Max” fill line.
In the end, the combo of the boil over at elevation with the loose lid are causing me to return the kettle. I don’t want to have a houseguest accidentally turn up the temperature. The other day, the power went out briefly and reset the saved temperature. I didn’t notice the next morning and the kettle boiled over and sprayed hot water everywhere again.

Heats up super fast and the 1 hr hold is so worth the price with a house full of coffee lovers and tea lovers
