looks better than pictured. many options and easy to use.

it is a crowed field of goose neck kettles. unless you are ready to shell big bucks for a hipster-delight fellow kettle. at the end of the day, they all boil water. if you are looking for some additional functionality, at a lesser price, there are plenty of kettles on amazon to choose from. most have a combination of 5-star and 1-star reviews, making it rather difficult to decide which one if best for your needs. after looking at many models, reading hundreds reviews, we stumbled upon this kettle and took a chance. out of the package, the kettle is adorable. like hundreds of others, the design is similar the fellow stagg. many people like the design of handles, which look like miniature canes. but irl, the kettle actually looks nice and the handle is ergonomic and comfortable. the base has a small footprint, the body is small and light. delightful to use for daily hot drinks. it is a bit wobbly in its base when not full of water, and makes clicking noises when rotated, but those are little things that do not distract from an overall good experience. intuitive, easy to use controls. nice and soft moving control button. copper accents add some design flair. the display is easy to read and understand. this is not a kettle if you need to boil a large quantity of water for cooking, cleaning, etc. this is also not a kettle if you need to pour quickly for certain types of tea. goose neck kettles designed for a rather slow flow. kudos to designers for finding a sweet spot for pouring, which will make both coffee and tea drinkers happy. it holds the selected temperature for up to 2 hours. big plus when you have time for another cup or two. given all the bells and whistles, the price is very reasonable. unlike many kettles on the market, which only offer a few presets but cost the same (or more), this kettle allows manual temperature selection. such functionality is important to people who like to drink coffee and different types of tea, that require different brewing temperatures. durability, based on many reviews of kettles made in china, seems more and more the thing of the past. our old kettle, from a well established company, also has manual temperature controls and can hold the temperature for 1 hour. for only $30, it is still kicking after many years of service. we just needed a smaller kettle with a goose neck. glad to finally find the one we like on amazon. this kettle also comes with a generous warranty. fingers crossed, that it will last.

Fantastic kettle

We'll see if it holds up long term. The four-year add-on warranty was fairly cheap so I went ahead and did it since these kinds of things lasting longer than a couple years is rare these days. That being said, past month with it has been great. It quickly and accurately heats water to 96C, which I use for French press coffee prep. Similarly, I set it to 70C for a water bath around my milk frother to get that ready while the coffee is brewing, and still come out with plenty of time left on the brew clock because of how quick it is. One word of caution: if you use temperature hold, the empty detection does not always work reliably if you've just poured out the last drop, because the thermometer is still hot. This may keep heat applied when it shouldn't. Honestly the thing heats water so fast I have no idea why you'd even use temp hold, so maybe better off not, however, if you also like to switch to Celsius, you may find that you accidentally enable temp hold. See further down for info on that. The manual is garbage. It calls the buttons by incorrect names, and shows incorrect symbols; for example, the power button symbol is used when describing the temp hold button. It also doesn't bother to tell you how to switch it from the default Fahrenheit to Celsius. For reference, that's done by simultaneously pressing the two buttons to the left of the display, which are Temp Hold and Minus. The problem is it has to truly be exactly at the same time; if you hit either button even a fraction of a second sooner, you'll enable temp hold or decrease the set temp instead, and now you may have heat applied when you didn't intend to if it was the temp hold button that activated. After a bit of practice I don't get it wrong as much anymore, but it still happens once a week.

Nice gooseneck kettle! 💕

Works very well, I just recently got it so maybe in the future I’ll update about it. But so far it works well, I haven’t got any sort of rust. The lid fits the kettle snug. The kettle keeps heat for a little duration once it’s heated also when holding the temperature it won’t be the exact initial temperature just near. The volume for the device buttons is kinda loud but you can turn it off in the instructions. I’ve noticed that when I don’t use it and unplug it, it doesn’t go back to the last temperature I had it set to. Not sure if it keeps the set last temperature when plugged in. It’s very easy to clean since it’s just water that’s used for it. I deep cleaned it once I opened the package and followed the instructions for first use. After I use the kettle I make sure to wipe it down completely with paper towel so no moisture gets stuck and could potentially cause problems. The kettle fits on the device fine, it’s snug. If you buy this product just be sure to press down to ensure it’s on, don’t put too much weight on it, there’s no need. I haven’t seen any leaks while using the kettle. Gooseneck kettles are just the type of kettles that has a certain way to hold it so the water gets slowly poured. There is a hole at the top of the lid that’s for steam to come out. So when pouring, pour slow so water doesn’t leak out from the lid. The kettle and the device feels sturdy and nice to the touch. Lastly, I LOVE LOVE LOVE, using this to make my matcha, I feel like it has elevated my matcha making experience. 💕✨

Absolutely love it 😀

Love this kettle, it looks beautiful in my kitchen, I don't mind having it out since it adda to the decoration, I love that you can set it to keep the water at the same temperature, is super easy to use and clean. If left untouched for a while it will shut off automatically, I havent had any issues with leaking or smells. The size is great if you use it daily for tea or any warm beverages, it holds plenty for small regular drinks, I even use it to water my plants from time to time. If you need ut for large quantities of water is not an ideal option but is perfect for regular day to day use! I think is worth the price.
