COSORIElectric Kettle Temperature Control with 6 Presets, BPA Free, Black

I had to replace my previous electric kettle which began leaking after only a year of use. I found this kettle on Amazon and decided to try it. I was not aware that it lights up in the base while turned on and that really makes it pop! As for use, it boils water quickly! It holds more than enough water for me to make a large batch of iced tea. It is sturdy and easier to clean than my last electric kettle. I love the color! It is simply beautiful, sleek and clean looking with the glass carafe. It is worth every penny I spent!

I recently purchased this in black, and it's quickly become a kitchen essential. Th capacity is perfect for our household's needs, whether it's brewing tea or preparing hot water for cooking. One of the standout features is how rapidly it brings water to a boil, significantly reducing wait times. The stainless steel inner lid ensures that the water doesn't come into contact with any plastic, which is important for us. Additionally, the automatic shut-off feature provides peace of mind, especially during busy mornings. Its modern design complements our kitchen decor, and at this price point, I wish I'd invested in it sooner.

It’s a great kettle. I did have one replaced under warranty - just under the warranty period, the kettle stopped working. The people from Cosori were great and got me a new one - about 3 years ago - and this one is going strong.I love that equal parts water and vinegar, set to full boil will remove the lime and mineral deposits.I bought this before getting married and my wife has come to love this kettle. We’ve used it to boil water to speed up pasta cooking and boil water rapidly for other purposes. For me, it’s about the coffee and that 200° F setting is perfect.

The media could not be loaded. July 2023 update - It is hotter than a blackstone griddle outside, but we are still brewing sweet tea down here in the south. This water-boiling machine gets called into duty as much as it ever has, even when it is scorching hot outside. The kettle still looks exactly like it does in my pictures. It hasn't rusted, scaled up, or changed how fast it heats up the water. I'd buy it again, and after having it for this long without any issues, I will strongly recommend this. I believe this is used at least twice - five times a day here in our house.November 2021 update - Still using it a ton and still enjoying it. Still looks good. No reason to replace and this is one of the very few items my wife allows on the counter all the time.July 2021 update - Added pictures of the condition. I’m pretty happy with this still. No decrease in use.May 2021 update - No discernible change in performance, no rust or issues. It has been performing it’s only job 4 times a day, every day of the week with very few days off. It would be nice if there were a temperature setting, however it hasn’t been a big enough deal for me to look for another kettle. Something that I took for granted, we make sweet tea in batches. When we get it hot and dump, then refill with colder tap water to start again; I had not thought how good this glass is! That’s a substantial temperature shock, so this glass has to be borosilicate just as advertised. Anyhow - still good here.December 2020 update - working great. Has boiled water four times this morning. Still looks great and no complaints.August 2020 update - still in use. My kids have discovered that during lockdown their favorite snack is Raman noodles. They are boiling water for Raman up to four times a day. This is on top of tea and coffee use. Yes, I know Raman is high in sodium. This kettle is still doing everything I expect, almost one year later.January 2020 update - I am still using this electric kettle. It is still boiling water just as good as the first day I plugged it in. Also - this has become the only one that I recommend to my friends if they need one.There is a silicone ring at the bottom that seals between the glass and the metal hot plate. That cannot be changed in their design if they have glass top to bottom. The expansion of steel versus the expansion of glass while heating would cause the glass to shatter since they expand at different rates.People have been cooking with silicon for a long time and it is “safe” enough. I would bet a lot of food and beverages you can buy sealed came in contact with food grade silicone at some point in their journey.There is no flavor or taste detected in this vessel when pouring water for tea. It seems to do the boiling faster than the unit this replaced.All steel rusts if you give it a chance, all stainless will stain but maybe not rust. Just realize that heat causes tempering in steel and the tempering will show as shades of purples, blues and tans on the steel itself. So it may not be rust but exposure to heat that makes the bottom become less shiny. Additionally, be sure to dump out any unused hot water and leave the lid open immediately after use to dry out the insides. The residual heat will evaporate all the remaining moisture out. That will help reduce rust risks.The cord on this unit is a nice upgrade from the last pot we had. This is a grounded plug whose cord can be wrapped under the base for appearances. It is heavier gauge and likely to lift the base when the pot isn’t on it.The upgraded version with the stainless steel lime filter is pretty good looking. We like it. The white color is very sharp looking.I've seen others say this in their reviews - I bought this after doing a lot of my own research and I am sharing my own experience with a product I spent my own money to buy. This is the kettle that I make tea for my family with every single day. It is used twice to four times a day.

We got this for the breakroom. I like that it's glass and I can tell if it's clean or not. Boils very quickly. Simple to use, it only has one button and it lights up telling you it's on.Negatives:1. Very short cord.2. Doesn't turn itself off. It comes to a rolling boil and shakes itself almost off the table. Don't walk away from it too long!

I'm buying another one after the auto-shutoff failed after 3 years. Simple and performs very well. A key feature for me is that the auto-shutoff works even at high elevation. I live at 6300', where water boils at 201°F, but the auto-shutoff detects boiling water and shuts off after about 15 seconds or so.The pour filter is too restrictive for my liking, but it's attached to the lid, so it's easy to open the lid at pour with no restriction. I would appreciate an audible alert when it shuts off, as well as a keep-hot function. But these are nice-to-haves, not requirements for me. Simplicity is a balancing virtue, so I'm not reducing my rating because these features are missing.We did experience some light rusting of the stainless steel bottom of the pot; however, this seemed to have no ill effects on the function or taste.

Why did I wait so long to get this?!? So the wife and I both like various instant hot drinks, oatmeal, etc. For years we had been using a hot water heater/coffee maker. It worked but you had to continually add water as the water heater side capacity was low. Not bad if only making one cup, but two large cups and it was a pain. It finally gave up the ghost and would blink "add water" even when full and refuse to heat. Decided to give this electric kettle a try and wow! what a difference. Plenty of capacity to make both of us large cups and hot cereals if we want, and it does it so fast you barely have time to prep the cups and bowls before you have nice piping hot water. The clear sides make it easy to see as the water is heating if you want to pull it before its a rolling boil. The base is well designed so that the kettle is not going go tip or slide off and once lifted it instantly turns off. Definitely one of the better kitchen gadgets I've got.
