Finally, good WiFi kettle alternative to Fellow Stagg EKG kettle!
I previously owned a Fellow Stagg EKG+ kettle. I loved the ability to turn it on using an app since I work on the 2nd floor, and my kitchen is on the 1st floor. Overall, I really liked the Stagg kettle, but my wife hated it since it has a very low flow rate out of the spout. It is good for making pour-over coffee, but it's annoying for her when she makes tea. Our Stagg EKG+ finally died and I had to find a replacement. Stagg has a new updated kettle (EKG Pro), but it's more expensive and has the same restricted flow rate.I looked around and it's surprising how few WiFi enabled electric kettles exist. I finally found the Govee and I was suspicious since it is really affordable. I was used to overpaying for WiFi-enabled devices. I bought it and I couldn't be happier - it is perfect for me and my wife who drinks tea!Pros:1. Remote on/off via WiFi and the Govee app2. Ability to schedule in advance using the app3. Decent flow rate (much faster than the Stagg EKG kettle)4. The "Hold temperature" button works even if you take the kettle off and put it back on the base. Some kettles turn off the "hold" when you take the kettle off the base. For pour-over coffee drinkers, it's common pre-wet the filter and pre-wet the coffee grounds before doing the full pour of water. This means you'll take the kettle off the base at least 3 times when making coffee. It's nice to maintain the "hold" of the temperature throughout the process.5. The kettle heats water quickly6. The app is easy to use - both initial setup of the Kettle to WiFi and ongoing use is simple in the app7. The kettle is a great value - affordable with nice quality. It is definitely a much better value than the Stagg EKG kettle8. It can connect to Amazon Echo and Google devices (I don't use this, but it's possible)Cons:1. The app allows you to schedule heating of water in advance, but it is a one-time schedule. You can't (yet) set up a recurring schedule (e.g., heat up water every morning at 5:45am).2. The volume of the kettle is 0.8 L which is small. It's enough to make a single cup of coffee or tea, but just barely. You'll have to refill each time - slow if you are making more than one cup at a time.3. The looks are just ok to me - I think the Stagg EKG kettle looks better, but this is subjective and doesn't affect the taste of my coffee :-)In short, I recommend the Govee kettle and I'm very happy with the app and remote WiFi features!
