Mecity Electric Kettle Gooseneck Pour Over Kettle ±1℉ Temperature Control Quick Heating Water Boiler for Coffee & Tea & Formula Auto Shut Off Tea Kettle 1200 Watt, 0.8L, Matt Black, Barista Edition

THIS BOILS VERY QUICKLY, OFFERS GREAT DEGREE CONTROL, AND LOOKS VERY SLEEK.NOW, THE ONLY THING I DON'T LIKE IS THE REQUIRED '3 SECOND PRESS' TO TURN THE UNIT OFF COMPLETELY. AT FIRST, I DECIDED TO JUST QUICK-TAP THE HEATING BUTTON TO TURN THE HEATER OFF AFTER USAGE, BUT BECAUSE OF THE WAY THIS BUTTON INTERACTS WITH THE 'HOLD HEAT' BUTTON, WHICH I ALSO USE, IT WOULD FAIL TO TURN THE KETTLE OFF. BUT I WOULDN'T NOTICE THIS, AND I WOULD SIT DOWN AND HEAR CRACKING NOISES FROM THE KETTLE AND REALIZE I HAD PUT THE EMPTY KETTLE BACK ON WITH THE HEAT STILL HIGH. THIS IS OF COURSE VERY NO BUENO FOR THE KETTLE, TO APPLY HEAT TO EMPTY KETTLE. NO BUENO.SO, CONFOUND IT, IN THE INTEREST OF CARING WELL FOR THE KETTLE AND TO NOT MAKE THIS MISTAKE AGAIN, I DECIDED I WOULD SIMPLY COMMIT TO LONG-PRESSING THE 'OFF' BUTTON EVERY TIME I USE IT. NOW, THIS MIGHT SEEM LIKE A MINOR ISSUE - WHAT'S 3 SECONDS IN THE GRAND SCHEME OF THINGS? WELL, I'LL TELL YOU.I MAKE COFFEE IN THE MORNING, TEA ONCE OR TWICE DURING THE DAY, AND OFTEN TEA AT NIGHT. SO 3-4 USES PER DAY. THAT'S 9-12 SECONDS I MUST SPEND LONG-PRESSING THIS DEVICE PER DAY. LET'S USE 10 AS A NICE ROUND NUMBER. THAT'S 70 SECONDS PER WEEK, 3640 SECONDS PER YEAR, AND ASSUMING I LIVE ANOTHER THIRTY YEARS OR SO, THAT'S 109,200 SECONDS OF LONG-PRESSING THIS STUPID BUTTON THROUGHOUT THE REMAINDER OF MY LIFETIME. NOW THAT'S 1820 HOURS, OR ABOUT 75 DAYS OF MY ENTIRE REMAINING LIFE ON THIS EARTH OF LONG-PRESSING THIS OFF BUTTON JUST TO ENSURE I DON'T LEAVE THE KETTLE ON HIGH HEAT WHILE EMPTY.NOW THAT BOTHERED ME QUITE A LOT INITIALLY. THAT'S SO MUCH TIME IN MY LIFE I COULD SPEND DOING MORE IMPORTANT THINGS, LIKE LOOKING AT MY PHONE OR SITTING IN MY ARMCHAIR OR WATCHING TV OR PLAYING VIDEO GAMES. BUT INSTEAD, I HAVE TO STAND LIKE A DWEEB FOR MULTIPLE SECONDS A DAY LONG-PRESSING THIS DEVICE TO TURN IT OFF. OVER TIME, THAT ADDS UP! I WAS GOING TO GIVE THIS KETTLE 4 STARS FOR THIS REASON.BUT LISTEN. I TRIED TO CHANGE ATTITUDE. I BEGAN SPENDING THOSE 3 SECONDS EACH LONG-PRESS THINKING ABOUT LIFE. I BEGAN TO THINK ABOUT THE MEANING OF LIFE. AND, NO, I HAVEN'T FIGURED IT OUT YET, BUT I THINK GIVEN THE THOUSAND-PLUS HOURS OF LONG-PRESSING THIS BUTTON THAT I HAVE TO LOOK FORWARD TO IN THE COMING DECADES, I MIGHT ACTUALLY JUST BEGIN TO DISCOVER SOME REAL, DEEP MEANING IN LIFE FROM THE CUMULATIVE 3-SECOND LONG PRESS MEDITATIONS. AND, I LIKE TO THINK THAT THIS RE-ORIENTING OF THE USE OF THIS TIME MAY JUST YIELD GREATER 'DIVIDENDS' THAN SCROLLING POLITICAL CONTENT OR WATCHING VIDEOS OF BABIES OR CATS. BUT, ONLY TIME WILL TELL.BUT THIS MUCH I CAN SAY, THE MECITY ELECTRIC KETTLE HAS CHANGED MY LIFE ALREADY, CAUSING ME TO LEARN TO SLOW DOWN, TO TAKE TIME TO THINK, TO MEDITATE, TO PONDER THE DEPTHS OF LIFE AND THE MYSTERIES THEREOF. AND FOR THAT, I HAVE THE PERHAPS ADEQUATE UX ENGINEERS OF THE MECITY ELECTRIC KETTLE TO THANK.5/5 STARS

had it for two months and it's been working great. I use it for tea and holding the temperature when I'm brewing gong fu style in smaller vessels more often. My only complaint is how short the cord is. They really only anticipated this would be used on the counter with an outlet in the wall above the counter. I use it at my desk and the cord barely hangs down to reach my surge protector multi-outlet. unless it's all the way back (where my monitors are). and it's a 3 prong so finding extension cords that aren't 6-20 feet long is annoying. even when I use in the kitchen, the cord barely reaches the outlet on the side of the island I use it on. even just 8 more inches of cord would have helped a lot.

I absolutely love my white electric gooseneck kettle! It heats up quickly and pours smoothly, giving me great control—perfect for pour-over coffee or tea. The sleek design looks elegant on my countertop and adds a modern touch to my kitchen. Functional and beautiful!

I’ve had this for almost two years now and it works great and consistently. It’s used probably 3-5x a day, various temps. I enjoy loose leaf teas and the temperature control this brings. The only drawback is that when it’s close to the temperature you want, sometimes it is insanely slow getting there. So, sometimes I will set it at a higher temp (like setting it to 212 for 190 water) and just take the kettle off when it shows my desired temperature on screen, although I’m aware this isn’t as accurate, and it really isn’t a pain to wait the extra minute for precision most times.

I've been using this kettle the past few days to heat my water for french press coffee. It doesn't feel to quite as the quality I expected for the price but my options were limited due to the features and color choice I wanted.The water is easy to completely pour out and doesn't take very long (I wasn't sure what to expect, as I've never owned a gooseneck pour over type kettle before. I do wish when turned off, the light would completely turn off but it does not and due to that, I've been unplugging it after each use. The lid feels a bit on the flimsy side but I am probably expecting more than I should for the cost.I will update my review if any issues arrive.

I love this teapot. I love the fact that it’s all stainless steel inside and it’s so cute! Works excellent.
