Light weight, simple to use kettle, perfect for 2 pour overs
Great little kettle. Perfect to make pour over coffee for 2 people. Simple and easy to use for a pour over, fill your kettle with water to the maximum fill line on the inside, put your kettle on the base, then hit the “on/off button on the right to turn it on. It will make a little beep, then set your desired temperature with the dial on the left.Next, to set your “keep warm feature”, again, on the right, hit the “keep warm”:button, which defaults to 2 hours. If you want to change the keep warm time, just scroll down with the dial on the left, right after you hit the keep, warm button, otherwise it will just keep warm for 2 hours after the water heats up. When your kettle is boiled, there’s a little beep to let you knowNo need to worry about turning off the kettle because it has automatic shut off. There’s also a little beep when it turns off to let you know that it’s off. .This is a nice lightweight kettle that’s easy on your wrist to use, so would be good for someone with arthritis in their hands. The beeping noise alerts are good too because it a soft pitch tone that is in no way annoying. They can be muted if you want. The wood looking handle is plastic, but it still looks like real wood. The kettle is small & doesn’t take up a lot of space on your counter top, plus it looks nice. I think it’s a great little kettle for the price. Hopefully it will last, it’s a new purchase so time will tell. For now I’m really pleased with this purchase & do recommend it to anyone looking for a nice small pour over kettle, without breaking the bank.

Don’t Hesitate…
I’m not going to be a snooty Judy here, people. The temp control works well enough that I can make really good pour over coffee, really good French press coffee, and great bong coffee (Japanese syphon). We don’t drink a ton of tea, but what we do drink hasn’t been ruined by hot as balls water. How fast is it? Fast. If you’re looking for a new one, this is probably faster than your old one. If it’s for someone else- who cares? Anyway, it’s nice addition to the coffee bar and it’s sleek, tactile, and it just works well. Just make sure you know how much water it holds.

Fantastic for pour overs and regular use
Our old regular electric kettle was long in the tooth, starting to break and my wife, the coffee aficionado, said it was not good for pour overs. Our son, the coffee commenter, told me we needed a gooseneck model, though I didn’t understand the difference.First, this kettle is well made and looks great. The kettle is metal and the base is plastic. The buttons and switches have a quality feel.Unlike our old kettle that had only on and off, this one allows you to set the specific temperature which is important for the perfect pour over. There’s also a warmer setting to keep your water hot. Way more flexible.My wife showed me the real trick of the gooseneck four pourovers. Because of the gooseneck, the water comes out slower so it allows for a very controlled pour. She is absolutely thrilled with every aspect of the kettle and it works great for me to make my simple tea.We’re very happy with this purchase and highly recommend it.

Good priced gooseneck kettle
Compared to other electric gooseneck kettles this is definitely worth the price. It has a beautiful aesthetic with the green and wood accents.It heats up very fast but I wonder if it's too fast for it's own capability. I say that because it will heat beyond the set temp sometimes by about 10°. But it maintains the temperature very well for up to 2 hours on the keep warm function.I love the range of temperature it provides. A lot of electric kettles don't go as low as this one. Lower temperatures are essential for certain types of tea.Overall I would buy this again or as a gift. Seems good quality, beautiful kitchen piece, and easy to use. I just cant give 5 stars because of the occasional overheating.

Perfect in your home office
This teapot has just the features you need and is perfect for your home office. I use this as a personal teapot as I drink throughout most of the mornings. I love the temperature hold which will hold it for up to 2 hours which is just enough to get through the pot and keep me topped off. The temperature adjust is a knob and you can dial in the exact temperature you want so you're not limited to 3 or 5 specific settings like other teapots. Its not super quiet when its heating, but it really heats up quick so its not long. Lastly, the long spout is a fun touch both aesthetically and practically.

As advertised!
The kettle works as advertised. I needed a new kettle for my pour overs and came across this kettle while browsing. I liked the green color with wood colored handles (the handle is made of plastic) so I ended up buying it and so far it’s been great. It looks good and operate - I like the temperature control knob since it makes it easy to change the temperature without having to press any buttons. One thing I learned while using (since I didn’t read the manual) was that I need to press the keep warm button if I want the kettle to hold the temperature. Otherwise, once the desired temperature is reached the kettles beeps (which can be muted) and stop heating. I wish the handles were real wood but at this price point I’m happy with the plastic ones as they look almost real.

Breaks way too soon.
This is my second purchase. The first one lasted 18 months. It’s been 2 months with this one and it’s already starting to act up. It’s a shame, I love the look and the spout was perfect for making pour over coffees. Not worth the risk. And return window is way too short. Appliances should have at least 1 year.
