Cosori Glass GK172-CO Electric Kettle
4 sources1 derived$25.99as of Aug 31

Tom's Guide reviewed the Cosori Glass GK172-CO Electric Kettle and highlighted its fast boiling performance and large 1.7L capacity. The kettle features a borosilicate glass carafe with a 4.3in wide opening, making it easy to fill. YouTube reviewer Alan praised the sleek design, including the blue LED indicator and cool touch handle. However, the lid's plastic rim means only a small portion stays cool during use. This kettle is ideal for those seeking a stylish, functional electric kettle with quick heating capabilities.

Strengths
  • Fast boiling time
  • Large 1.7 L glass carafe capacity
  • Easy filling with 4.3 in wide opening
Watch-outs
  • Only small black area of lid stays cool to the touch
  • Lid has plastic rim with stainless steel top and bottom

How they stack up

All-Clad Stainless Steel Electric Kettle

The All-Clad Stainless Steel Electric Kettle features an intuitive touchscreen display and 9 temperature settings, a feature not found in the Fellow Clyde which lacks variable temperature control. However, unlike the Fellow Stagg EKG Pro that offers precise temperature control to a single degree Fahrenheit, the All-Clad's 9 settings are not as precise and lacks the scheduling feature of the Cosori.

Cosori Glass GK172-CO Electric Kettle

While the Cosori Glass GK172-CO Electric Kettle boasts fast boiling and a large 1.7L capacity like the Secura SWK-1701DB, it lacks the temperature control features of the Oxo Variable Temperature Electric Kettle, which offers precise one-dial temperature adjustments. The Cosori's glass construction also doesn't match the stainless steel durability of the Fellow Clyde or Fellow Corvo EKG models.
