Chef's Choice Cordless Electric Glass Kettle Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We have had this electric kettle for three months. It has been in use almost daily. It does its job quickly. The spout pours better than most pitchers we own. I would recommend this kettle for anyone that wants a reliable kettle but also looks nice on the counter top.

After some use, a little scale was forming on the bottom. The instructions included a remedy for this -- guess what -- it worked like a charm and in 5 minutes the kettle was as clean as it was when we unpacked it.

Four stars from us. It would have been five if the price was a little lower.

Hamilton Beach 40886 Stainless Steel Electric Cordless Kettle Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I am surprised to see this model is still being sold. I bought this in Canada ealier this year, and it worked only a few months before the base switch stopped working. Because I was now in the states, its was a minor hassle to get a warranty replacement through Hamilton Beach, but one was obtained and cost me $8 in misc shipping costs. That one worked only a few months longer, then died the same way as its predecessor. Fool me twice, shame on me, huh? There seems to be a fundamental engineering flaw with the base switch on the model. Hamilton Beach should take it off the market and re-think the switch. I really wanted this kettle to work for me, loved everything else about it.

Chef's Choice M677SSG Cordless Electric Kettle-Stainless Steel Gray Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I grew up in Europe with electric kettles so I think I know what to expect. I had to return the M677, as it took too long to turn off. I called their customer service and they said it should take an average of 12 seconds to turn off. The average for mine to click off was 1 minute and 15 seconds (timed only after coming to a vigorous boil with steam escaping). It didn't matter if it was full or not. Only once did it click off in less than one minute. Once I came downstairs and it was still boiling away, I was not sure for how long it was boiling so I decided to return it.

Giving them the benefit of the doubt (their customer service was good - a real human picked up in a few seconds), I replaced it with a model M678 which is a little larger, and its average click off time is 35 seconds. It still feels like it's too slow to click off and most of the time I flick it up manually, but at least I feel I can trust it to turn off if I leave the room. (My old dead Russell Hobbs would have switched off in 15 seconds, but I can't seem to find them anymore in the US at least.) On the other hand, the exra boiling time does mean the water if very hot; I would often bring the Russell Hobbs to a second boil so it would be hotter!

The M678 is a bit wobbly on its base, and wobbles a bit when its boiling, but the M677 was stable. All in all, the kettles look good but feels cheaply made with inconsistent quality control. But after scouring all the other reviews, it seems like these models were the best of the bunch.

At least I could count on Amazon to take back a defective product without any hassle. I'm glad I bought from them and not another vendor now (Amazon even reimbursed the shipping, which I didn't expect).

Cloer 5054019 Electric 57-Ounce Water Kettle Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I purchased the Cloer kettle for use in my office hoping that the water would taste good enough for making tea.It doesn't.The blue light is cool, but what I really want is clean hot water.After boiling the kettle out a couple of times, I made a cup of tea.The after taste was terrible.In the process of boiling, the water absorbed some something from the kettle.I attribute it to the silicone gasket and plastic construction.I sent the unit back to Amazon.

I have also tried the Proctor Silex K2070-1.The after taste on that one was at least twice as bad as the Cloer.It went back to Amazon as well.In my search for a kettle that makes clean hot water I will next try the Hamilton Beach 40898.That one appears to have no plastic in contact with the water.

Water coming out of a kettle should be identical to water boiled on a stove or in a microwave - steaming hot with no taste.Since most manufacturers are good at including "free flavor" with their kettles, why not make the flavor earl grey.Then they would have something.

Capresso H2O Pro Programmable Cordless 56-Ounce Water Kettle with Variable Temperature Control Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)After seeing warnings against another variable temperature kettle (branded by a major tea vendor) that's totally hit-or-miss by 20 degrees, I was cautiously hopeful that Capresso's H2O Pro would avoid that problem.

When this kettle arrived, I decided to play the skeptic and put to test it.Would it really hit 140F on the dot?Just a little above/below?A lot?

After a short brew time, *two* other thermometers (one analog, one digital) agreed with the kettle: 140.0F on the dot!

This is one excellently designed variable-temperature kettle!This kettle has now brought about more casual tea drinking.No more do I have to watch a stove or electric kettle like a hawk and stop it at the right temperature!

Temperatures are programmable in 10F increments from 110F (warm on the wrist) to 212F (boiling).I like to make tea with 140F (a bit over scalding) as I use plenty of Japanese green tea that is temperature-sensitive.And I love how it can also be programmed to keep the same temperature continuously (or not, as you please).

I only have 2 snags with this kettle:

- At the temperatures I like, increments in 5, 2 or 1 degree make better sense than 10 degree increments.

- When taking the kettle off its base, it resets its temperature defaults to 212 (boiling).I'd prefer that it automatically kept my preferences while I'm pouring the occasional cup throughout the day.But that's just me.Turning it to the preferred temp again is just a few thumb-wiggles away (which makes the 10-degree increments a balance of convenience).

Since no other variable-temp kettle I can find on the market is better than this one, these are just would-likes and don't detract from what I feel is a kettle at the head of its market.

5 Stars.

Attractively housed in stainless steel with a polished chrome finish, this electric hot-water kettle makes a striking presence on any kitchen counter or buffet. Use it to quickly bring 16 to 56 ounces of water to a rolling boil for making anything from tea, instant coffee, and hot cocoa to oatmeal, instant soup, noodles, and more.

For safety, the kettle shuts itself off automatically once the water has reached a boil (or after the elapsed extended boil time) or if water needs to be added, which prevents it from boiling dry. Other highlights include a water-level window with min/max markings, a simple lid with push-button release, a micro-filter spout that keeps particles out of the cup, and cord storage when not in use. The cordless electric kettle measures 9 by 6 by 9-1/2 inches.

Kalorik JK-19967 1500-Watt Cordless Jug Kettle, White Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)We've been using this kettle at work just fine. It's very light weight but has a tall receptacle that holds the kettle well so we're not concerned about tip over.

It boils incredibly fast & has a nice comfortable handle & easy to use lid release.

Make sure you follow the initial instructions to boil 3x letting cool each time, before the first use to remove any foul taste.

The element is not "protected" so we'd expect scale to build up, but that's easily cleaned.

Only gripe is that the filter seems to fall out when tipped upside down. Even so, can recommend this kettle as a low cost but perfectly functional kettle.

T-Fal Vitesses 1.7L (7-Cup) Electric Kettle Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I spent hours researching every electric kettle available (and looking at them in person, in stores) before settling on this one.I've owned it for about 6 months now, and it's been great.The concealed heating element and the simple one-piece plastic jug design make it very easy to clean (not that I've needed to) and leak resistant (I assume, from a design perspective, since mine has no leaks yet).The only way it could leak is if the grommet sealing the metal bottom piece to the plastic jug developed a leak, whereas most of the stainless steel kettles being sold have several parts, many seams, and thus many places a leak could develop. There is some mild browning of the plastic inside the jug, I suppose a reaction to the high heat.This same thing happened with my roommate's older plastic electric kettle, so it's to be expected.People complain about plastic vs. stainless steel, I settled on plastic for one primary reason: it is a better insulator, so not only will it keep the water hotter for longer, it will be safer to handle in general (ie. it won't burn you or a child if it is accidentally picked up by its sides while it contains hot water).People complain about plastic "leeching chemicals" into the water, I haven't noticed any difference in taste, personally, and I doubt stainless steel would be much "safer" than plastic in this respect.The switch works great, and mine has never spilled water or over-boiled it (as long as it contains the minimum recommended amount of water).The spout and handle shapes make it easy to pour, and the locking top makes it pretty tough to spill.Definitely recommended, I'm buying another one for my parents right now.

PS - While researching electric kettles, I frequently saw complaints of how kettles designed for use in the USA don't heat water as fast as those in the UK.This is for a very simple reason: UK uses 240 volt power, USA uses 120 volts.Most electrical receptacles are rated for 15 amps (though the kitchen are often has at least two 20-amp circuits, per NEC recommendations).Watts = volts * amps, which means that UK kettles can get up to 240 volts * 15 amps = 3600 watts, while USA kettles can get up to 120 volts * 15 amps = 1800 watts.Manufacturers might sometimes avoid approaching this limit, perhaps due to safety or liability issues?Just note that this 1750 watt Tfal kettle is very close to the typical USA receptacle wattage rating.It's just about as high as you'll be able to get in the USA...most other USA electric kettles only go up to 1500 watts.

West Bend 53783 1-3/4-Quart Cordless Water Kettle, Black Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)If your an expat or just an anglophile and you are left wondering, "Why doesn't America embrace the electric kettle?!" then this is the item for you. Sleek and aptly priced.

I don't know why you'd pay around $50 for something that just heats water... brand loyalty? I wouldn't pay the extra $15-$30 just for the flat metal plate that the Braun or Philips has. (The West Bend kettle has a metal coil to heat up the water: Yes, you have to clean the coiled versions, but it's exactly the same as cleaning out a coffee maker... white vinegar once in a blue moon. Hey, the Brits and the Irish don't mind the coil, why should I?)

The stouter version of this I think is too small, unless you live alone and don't drink that much tea/coffee/cocoa. Between us, my brother and I drink six to eight cups of tea a day, plus hot cereal on top of that and this kettle is more than sufficient (1.7 liters).

Some more good things:
It turns of automatically after it comes to a roaring boil.
See-through panel lets you see the water level.
So quiet, you wouldn't know it's on...
That's why it has a little red light that goes on.
Has a locking top so as to avoid spills.
The black fits in with my kitchen's decor.

It also comes in handy for when I'm cooking, using up all the burners and need just a bit of hot water, quickly. Or even if I am cooking rice or pasta, it's easier to heat up the water in the electric kettle and then pour it into the pot on the stove.

Two complaints: The cord is thick and not very flexible (the cord itself is about two feet). I have this plugged into the same outlet as my microwave and cannot use the two at the same time or else I'll have a circuit short... but then again, whoever remodeled the kitchen did a bad job on the electicity.

Makes a great present for any hot beverage lover or college student.

Aroma AWK-161 Clar-i-Tea 1.7-Liter Electric Water Kettle and Tea Brewer Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is one of the few electric kettles I found with no plastic under the water line--although it does have a silicone gasket between the glass and metal parts.It boils fast and is reasonably easy to clean.

HOWEVER, it has a fatal flaw.The non-detachable mesh screen connected to the lid is not stainless steel.It visibly rusted within a week of purchasing the product.I called Aroma (the manufacturer) and they sent me a replacement, which started to visibly rust in 24 hours!This is not okay.Any metal in the product should be food grade stainless steel.

The uniquely designed appliance not only provides a tempered-glass carafe for viewing the boiling process, but it also comes with a stainless-steel tea infuser that accommodates both loose-leaf and bagged teas, making it possible to brew a variety of teas right in the pot after the water has boiled.

Oster 5965 Stainless-Steel 1-1/2-Liter Electric Water Kettle Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I read reviews for many electric kettles and in the end chose the great Oster 5965. It had no reviews at all, but had all the features that were important to us:

Concealed Element
Short cord/cord keeper
Auto-off, no whistle
Boil dry protection
Mesh/screen pouring filter
Water level indicator

This kettle boils water quickly and my favorite feature is the Keep Warm button. Especially helpful if you tend to get sidetracked like I do. Just don't forget to turn it off!It pours neatly, looks nice on the counter, and is great when you are cooking and need boiling water. The on/off switch is a rocker button and the Keep Warm is a push button. These two were a plus for me as they are sturdy to the touch. I felt the spring type switch on the Aroma (a contender) felt flimsy and that the time would come when it would not 'catch' in the on position.

The only con is the opening for adding water is rather small. I was concerned about cleaning it, however there are directions in the manual for cleaning it with a mix of white vinegar and water, allowing it to sit overnight to remove any scale buildup.

If you have read reviews of other products where people complain that the kettle gets hot, this one is no different. But what do you expect from a steel kettle that is full of boiling water??It's no different than if it had been sitting on the stove except that you didn't have to heat up the element and have the residual heat from the stove heating up your kitchen.

I paid $40 at Target and I recommend this Oster Brushed Stainless Steel Kettle.

In a matter of minutes, hot water will be ready to use for anything from tea, instant coffee, and hot cocoa to instant soup or oatmeal. The kettle shuts off automatically once water has reached a full boil, and its keep-warm function maintains a ready-to-use hot-water temperature (or fast re-boiling when making black tea). Simply lift the jug off its 360-degree power base for graceful serving without the hassle of a cord, and return it at any angle. Even more, the unit offers boil-dry protection with auto shut-off for safety and peace of mind--no need to worry about the kettle operating without water inside.

Aroma AWK-115S Hot H20 X-Press 1-1/2-Liter Cordless Water Kettle Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)[Originally review January 2009 (3 stars), Updated July 2010]
We bought one of these for our home and liked it so much I got another for my office. It is a quick safe way to boil water. It works much better than our teapot on our conventional stove and you can leave the room without worry about all the water boiling out and a possible fire.
It is so efficient that we often use it to heat up water before putting it in a pan on the stove. It is much faster. When we are making pasta we will put a small amount of water in a large pan and fill the teapot. The water in the pot is boiling before the water on the stove. The pot is light, even when full, and has no aftertaste like I have read some of the plastic ones do.
HOWEVER, we had owned our home pot for less than six months when the 'on' switch broke off. The pot was still usable, but you have to reach in and activate it with a fingernail. It was under limited warranty, but that involved mailing it to San Diego at our own cost and sending them a check for $8 to have it returned. Including the time and materials to package it up and then drive to the post office and have it gone for 2-4 weeks wasn't worth the effort.
I have concluded we just got a lemon. Because this happened and the warranty policy was so cumbersome, I originally gave this 3 stars. But our other one is working fine and the broken piece has turned out to be a small inconvenience, so I have revised my rating to 4.6, rounding up to 5.
