Our verdict

The COSORI 1.7L kettle is a well-designed basic kettle for people who don't want boiling water touching plastic. Choose a variable-temperature or gooseneck kettle for tea and coffee precision.

A stainless kettle designed so boiling water touches only steel and glass-free surfaces, with a wide opening for cleaning.

Who should buy it?

  • Green and white tea drinkers wanting set temperatures

Why 'No Plastic Contact' Matters to Buyers

Some people notice a plastic taste or smell from kettles with plastic lids or water windows. COSORI's design keeps water in contact with stainless steel only, which addresses that concern.

Note that the exterior handle and base still use plastic, which is normal.

Everyday Use

It boils a full kettle quickly on a standard US outlet and shuts off automatically. The wide opening makes descaling easy; use a vinegar or citric acid solution every few weeks in hard-water areas.

Limits

There are no temperature presets, so it's not ideal for green tea or pour-over coffee, which prefer water below boiling. The stainless exterior gets hot to the touch.
