If you like to serve tea in a very presentable way, then this is the right kettle for you! Other than design, the kettle comes with a lot of features like a cool-to-touch handle, steam holes, and a thermometer on the lid to display the current water temperature.

Pros

The thermometer tells the exact temperature of the water.
Stainless steel design provides an elegant look with easy cleaning.
1-liter capacity makes it the best kettle for personal use.
The pouring mechanism makes it very easy to pour the contents with pouring controls.

Cons

The gooseneck pouring mechanism is delicate and prone to breaking.
There is a thermometer but no temperature control settings.
The gooseneck pouring mechanism is difficult to clean.

2. Krups BW26 Cool Touch Stainless Steel double Wall – 1.5L

Check latest price

We’re usually not fans of plastic boilers or electric kettles but this electric kettle is a bit different. It’s made of plastic on the outside but the interior is made of stainless steel. So you benefit from always having a cool exterior since it has double layer insulation and protection.

It features a keep warm setting for 30 minutes but there are no temperature settings or controls unfortunately. This is an affordable unit that will serve the needs of many tea and coffee drinkers but more demanding users may want to opt for another Krups model.

Notable Features:

1500 W Power
Limescale Filter
360 degree rotating base
Water level indicator
Cordless
Auto shut off
1.5L capacity

This stainless steel kettle has a capacity of 1.7L, a 360-degree rotational base, and 7 different temperature settings that are perfect for making a variety of different teas or coffees via its sharp and easy-to-use LCD screen.

It has a 60 minute keep warm setting, which is usually not found in kettles as keep warm features are primarily the realm of water boilers.

*see below update

Notable Features

Stainless Steel body.
Removable Lid.
360 rotational base
On/Off switch
Indicator Light
Cordless - (the cord plugs into the base heating element, and the kettle itself can then be used independently)
Auto Shut Off
Limescale Filter

Update: the Krups Savoy appears to be out of stock or discontinued as we had trouble finding it at Amazon, Target, and Walmart. There's a more affordable Krups BW710D51 that has good reviews on Amazon, is more affordable, and more importantly has adjustable temperature settings pictured below that we think is a great option as well. Cheers!
