Breville BKE830XL IQ Electric Kettle - Pure, Silver
Zeppoli Glass Electric Kettle
Cosori Electric Kettle,1.7L - Hot Water & Tea Heater
Need to boil water quickly, evenly, and efficiently? Forget the microwave, you need an electric kettle. A good kettle is easy to use, efficient, safe, and easy to clean and maintain as well.
We’ve evaluated a number of electric kettles and today we’ll turn our attention to another category of kettles – glass.
1. Breville BKE830XL IQ Electric Kettle - Pure, Silver
This is yet another beautifully designed electric kettle from Breville but the main difference is here is that the body is made of high-quality shock-resistant German Schott glass.
For some, it is a matter of preference while others believe that glass is the safest material in which to heat water as it is a toxin and BPA free though pretty much everyone agrees that nowadays, stainless steel is equally safe; we generally avoid plastic kettles, however.
2. Zeppoli Glass Electric Kettle
The cordless and fast-boiling Zeppoli electric glass tea kettle is furnished with sophisticated technologies that render extra efficiency and convenience.
For example, it is made with industrial-strength glass which is complemented by stainless steel accents. While preventing taste contaminations and preserving natural flavors, it can easily withstand any minor drops.
The cordless technology of the kettle allows for easy, hassle-free pouring. The built-in bright LED lights indicate when the kettle is heating. Owing to the faster boiling mechanism, the water comes to a boil within 5 to 6 minutes at a maximum capacity of 1.7 liters.

How to Clean Your Electric Kettle
Over time, as you use your electric kettle, you will accumulate hard water build-up, also referred to as limescale. Hard water build-ups are mineral deposits that, over time, reduce the performance of your kettle or water boiler.
You can use a homemade solution of citric acid or vinegar to remove this build or buy a citric acid cleaner.
Our Take:
It's a matter of preference and there is no right or wrong answer. Although kettles, such as the Breville come with more functionality, for the price range, both the Zeppoli and Cosori kettles are also great choices.
