Ranked #4 in Best Electric Kettles

Chefman Electric Kettle

4.0

$29

The Chefman Electric Kettle offers quick boiling in just three minutes and a useful Keep Warm function that maintains temperature for up to an hour. Reviewers praised its integrated tea infuser, LED indicators, and cordless design with 360-degree swivel base. However, Shouldit's testing found it to be slower than competitors and noted an awkward handle design. The kettle features a glass spout, wide opening for easy filling and cleaning, and a mess-free pouring spout. It's recommended for tea lovers who value convenience but may not be ideal for those seeking maximum speed or ergonomic design.

Strengths

— Fast boiling time of three minutes
— Keep Warm function maintains temperature for up to an hour
— Integrated tea infuser for loose-leaf tea drinkers

Watch-outs

— Slow performance compared to other models
— Awkward handle design

COSORI Electric Kettle

4.2

$26

How they stack up

Chefman Electric Kettle

The Chefman kettle offers a keep warm function and integrated tea infuser, features not found in the Amazon Basics or COSORI models, but it's slower than the Fellow Stagg EKG Pro and lacks the precision temperature control of the Cuisinart and OXO kettles. While it's more affordable than the Fellow kettle, it's less ergonomic and doesn't match the energy efficiency of the Cuisinart.

COSORI Electric Kettle

The COSORI kettle stands out from the Chefman and OXO models with its quiet operation at 66.3 dB, but it falls short of the Fellow Stagg EKG Pro's precision temperature control and the Cuisinart's 30-minute keep warm feature. While it offers a glass spout and stainless steel design, it consumes more energy than the Cuisinart and lacks the advanced temperature settings of the OXO kettle.
