Best Electric Kettle Reviews 2020

Once upon a time, to heat water, all you needed was fire and a container to boil the water in. As the human race advanced, we moved onto stovetop kettles that still needed a heat source to boil the water. Of course, that creates the issue of leaving it boiling away and potentially damaging your equipment. To combat this, a wise inventor came up with the whistling kettle. This classic feature calls attention to the fact water has reached boiling point. We eventually graduated to electric kettles that simply did one thing – boil your water!

Exactly which kettle you need can be quite a complicated decision. If you prefer a coffee maker for your coffee, then your kettle will be mostly for tea, perhaps paired with a beautiful glass teapot, or to support your cooking efforts. I this case, heating to a specific temperature will be less essential than a fast, power-efficient boil.

There are a lot more features to consider and brands to choose from. You even have to consider ease of use and how often you will need to clean and descale the one you choose. No matter how complicated anything is, with proper guidance, it can be simplified.

With this guide, we will help you simplify the process of choosing so you will know exactly what to look out for when you get to our actual product reviews. Keep in mind, though - the five brands we have featured are some of the biggest names in the industry, but if you want to extend your options, you can as well check out electric kettles by Proctor Silex and Secura. These two companies have also made a name in the electric appliances industry, making huge sales on online retailers.
