Amazon Basics Electric Kettle with Glass Carafe for Tea and Coffee, BPA-Free, Fast Boiling, Auto Shut-Off, 1.7 Liter, 1500W, Black and Silver

A most excellent kettle! I enjoy actually watching the water boil through the sturdy clear glass. More importantly, this kettle boils water very rapidly! The on /off switch is sturdy, with of course automatic shutoff when the heating is done. I also appreciate the fact that the kettle lid stays open so it's easy to pour water into it for heating. Previous metal kettles did not open fully; awkward! Actually, I have both the 1.8-quart capacity kettle (love the glowing blue light as water boils) for our kitchen and the smaller 1.1-quart kettle for my office. Excellent vale for my money, both!

I turned my Toyota 4Runner into a solo camping vehicle. Sometimes I want to make coffee or re-hydrate a Mountain House de-hydrated camping meal. In order to do this, I need boiling water. This Amazon Basics kettle it simple to use and works great. After an initial cleaning, I put about 1 liter of water in and set it on the cooking stand. I then pushed down the "start" lever. The blue light lit up and it began to heat the water. I use a Bluetti AC180 power system in my 4Runner. The kettle pulled about 1440 watts on average during the heating process. After a several minutes, the water began to rapid boil. About 10 seconds after the rapid boil began, the unit clicked off all by itself! The water poured smoothly from the kettles spout. I like the glass kettle since it lets me see the water inside (I want to make sure it really gets to a rapid boil). And the stainless steel is a nice touch. It is however slightly larger then I had anticipated. Not a big deal, I just thought I would mention it. Overall, it is a very well designed kettle that looks good and works great. Especially for the small price I paid!

I had this for 3 years but dropped it recently when it was empty (thankfully) and it damaged the top so it does pop open now without force and is difficult to close. It worked great while I have had it boiling in a timely manner, never overflowing or any problems. I am replacing it with the smaller version of it because I have both (the other is at work) and this taller one is much louder when it first starts heating though it does quiet down when coming up to a boil, than the smaller one. I literally have to turn the volume up on my TV when this is on. That is my only complaint and otherwise recommend it since it has a larger capacity & never gave me any problems.

The 1500W heating element delivers fast boiling, typically a full kettle in about 6–8 minutes depending on starting water temperature. It’s efficient for daily tea, coffee, instant meals, and pour‑overs.The glass carafe lets you see the water level and boiling progress, which many users find appealing. The black and silver accents are neutral and modern. Being BPA‑free is reassuring for health‑conscious users. Expect a plastic lid and handle with a stainless‑steel heating plate; overall build is decent for the price, though not premium.

This was worth the $21 I spent on it. I’ve been needing to ease up on my coffee intake so I wanted something to prepare tea at my desk. The 1L size is fine for me. I usually net about three mugs of tea per pot and I fill it once maybe twice a day from a filtered bottle fountain. At room temperature and just under 1L, this kettle boils and shuts off after just about 4 minutes. That’s acceptable for me. I like that it doesn’t have that goofy blue ring light at the bottom of the kettle. Instead it has a more appropriately sized blue light on the one side. The kettle keeps the water warm for a reasonable amount of time too. I do have some issues. The base is very lightweight. I needed to coax the power cord to ensure that the base sat flat on the desk top. The other concern is that due to its size, the kettle noticeably shakes at full boil. I don’t think it’ll tip over but it is something I noticed. Given the three smallish rubber feet, I would have expected it to be a tad more sturdy but gosh this produces a vigorous boil. Overall, I am pleased with this product.

The Amazon Basics electric kettle heats up water quickly and is great for making tea or coffee. The glass carafe looks nice and feels sturdy, and I like that it’s BPA-free. It’s easy to use with straightforward controls, boils water fast, and doesn’t take up much space. Overall, a reliable and simple kettle that gets the job done.

Leaving a review for my mom, who adores this thing. Especially for the price, you can't go wrong. I have a really fancy, ergobomic smart kettle and this one is just a powerhouse and does what it's supposed to when it's supposed to. My mom uses this multiple times a day, every single day; my boss has one and uses it with his coffee press; my aunt has had one for years and it still works without issue. Would i purchase this one rather than my smart kettle if I could turn back time? No, because with the tea I drink it's not supposed to be mixed with boiling water. If you want boiling water at the same temperature every time, this is the way to go! A great electric kettle that has stood the test of time with many people I know. The light function is useful and really makes it look pretty cool, and the amount of water it holds is very impressive. Easy to clean- just pour some vinegar in there and have it sit for a bit. A very durable and economical workhorse. Highly recommended.

Crazy pleased with this new inexpensive purchase. Light weight. Boils fast, and thoroughly. Max fill (1 litre) fills my French press exactly. 1/4 full does one cup of tea. Something about the fully transparent pot is SO much better than peering at a little slit water line. And you can SEE if it's actually clean or scaly. It is just loud enough for me to hear it turn off from the other room, which I want. Being glass, it might not keep the water hot very long after it turns off, but I always make it right away anyway - so no down side. I will always buy glass going forward - and this unit again, if it lasts.

Excelente, la compré con descuento. Calienta el agua muy rápido, se apaga sola, llegó bien empaquetada y en tiempo.

Very happy with my new kettle! Looks great ,and works very well and fast . It's also the perfect size.Great value for the money!

Wow, I'm really impressed! It's lighter, more attractive, and quieter than my previous kettle. And having the water visible looks nice and is functional as well: allowing me to easily see how much water it has, and the degree to which it is boiling.

A comparación de otras teteras eléctricas que he comprado, esta se siente bastante robusta y su funcionamiento se siente también muy seguro. Para que no haya ambigüedad, estoy hablando de la jarra eléctrica de vidrio Amazon Basics de 1.7 litros. Calienta el agua con bastante rapidez y se apaga sola en cuanto el agua comienza a hervir. El vidrio es grueso. El mango se mantiene frío, de manera que se puede manejar muy bien. Por el momento, estoy muy satisfecho con el producto. Veremos si es duradero, por que el tema que ha sido reincidente con todas las teteras eléctricas de diversas marcas que he comprado es que se descomponen entre tres y seis meses. Esta parece estar construida con una mayor calidad, entonces tengo la expectativa que dura cuando menos un año y medio, lo que consideraría un trato justo respecto al precio. Yo no considero que le doy un uso fuerte. Generalmente la uso una vez al día por las mañanas para calentar 1.25 litros y ocasionalmente al medio día. Esto no representa un uso intenso. Entonces, veremos cuánto dura y regresaré a actualizar esta nota que escribo el 28 de agosto de 2024. Mientras tanto, sí recomiendo comprarla ya que es un producto de calidad superior en su rango de precio. Espero resulte útil.
