27oz Bistro Gooseneck Electric Water Kettle, Pour Over Coffee & Tea, Stainless Steel, Matte Black

Got tired of auto coffee makers,got a ceramic drip coffee maker,This pot has water ready in minutes and is easy to pour into my ceramic dripper!It also looks very nice fits well with my eclectic kitchen gadgets?the auto shut off is nice,all said it’s great deal for a a great price

I’ll start with what I really liked: - simple, modern, clean design - heated VERY fast - good weight distribution; easy to pour fast or slow; comfortable handle Here’s what I didn’t love: - yes, it dribbles a few drops of water from the base - no, it didn’t pour water all over the place; anyone who says it did either received a defective unit, removed the plastic piece (that kinda seems like it’s for shipping and should be removed BUT DEFINITELY SHOULD NOT), or most likely, overfilled it - material was thin, would be easy to dent, felt cheaper than it looks (but to be fair it’s pretty light, made of stainless and still inexpensive so what can one expect?) - the screw from the lid to the cork top was tiny and flexed the very thin metal top - the most obvious physical weakness. A wider screw and a metal washer would’ve at least braced the weak point better - overall I didn’t think it would last forever, and eventually the black paint seemed like it might scratch away, but for the price, it seemed pretty good The dealbreaker: - the smell. It came with a not untypical, chemical smell once unboxed. I washed the insides with dish soap and gave it a good rinse. - first use: smelled terrible! Kinda like solvent / glue / plastic / bleach. Smelled inside the hot kettle = more concentrated than the bad smell in my kitchen. - boiled a mild citric acid solution, several times, then washed again. A little better, but not gone. - used for another week; still there, still an off flavor in my drinks - boiled white vinegar, several times, soap and water inside again. Still there. - gave it another week to off-has whatever it was. - not getting any better at this point, after using 3 times a day for 3 weeks. Sending back for a refund. Final take: From reading a bunch of reviews, most people had no problem with any off smells. Mine was pretty intense, something I would imagine most people couldn’t live with. So my guess is that the occasional unit is shipped with this issue. I would’ve just returned for a replacement, and hoped the next one wasn’t smelly. For the money, it works well, looks cool, and heats up super fast. But I found a crazy good price on a much more expensive adjustable temp gooseneck kettle and pulled the trigger on that instead. If you’re still reading this I’d recommend going for it - unless you’re ready to shell out considerably more for something nicer. My $.03

I purchased this kettle to use primarily as a "gets the job done" kettle for my office coffee setup. I am serious about my coffee and have used more premium kettles such as the Hario gooseneck and the Fellow Stagg EKG. The Fellow is my go-to at home, but I didn't want to spend $150 again, so I purchased this Bodum kettle. My review of this product is at least somewhat informed by comparing its performance to more expensive products like the Fellow Stagg EKG. First, I want to address the leaking/steam valve issue that many other reviewers have complained of. In some photos I saw of this product before purchasing it, there was a plastic cap on the steam valve, but there was no plastic cap on mine. Bodum seems to have updated that part to a metal thingy that is, I hope, a lot more literal-fool-proof than whatever plastic piece they were using before. I took some pictures and added them to this review. To clarify: this kettle does not leak if you do not overfill it. If you fill it up to the fill line like a sane person, you will have a problem-free water boiling experience. Its design is in no way defective, and I have been using it several times per day for a few weeks now with absolutely zero leaking issues. It would probably leak if I filled it way past the line, but any kettle-- including the Stagg and other pricier options, as I've witnessed firsthand-- will leak through the lid holes if overfilled. Pour rate and quality: Before getting to the Bodum, I want to mention the speed of the pour for the other kettles I've owned. The Fellow Stagg EKG pours at a rate that I can only describe as glacially slow-- water comes out of it in a very slow and controlled drip, which is nice for pour-over coffee but feels ridiculous when pouring a lot of water at once, such as for French press or tea. On the other hand, my Hario kettle pours much faster, but it still allows for some control. So, if those are the ends of the spectrum, then this kettle from Bodum kettle pours quickly, at a rate that is most like the Hario and is honestly more pleasurable to use than the Stagg. For pour-over coffee, I suspect the Bodum's more aggressive flow gitated the coffee bed more, but the stream doesn't feel as delicate or controlled as the Stagg. The water stream produced by the Bodum is steady and does not break up or dribble, even when pouring from a height of several inches. Really, by all objective measures such as this, the Bodum's performance rivals that of any higher-end offerings. When filled to capacity with room temperature water, it boils in about 5 and a half minutes. Really, my only qualms with this kettle are with the cork on the lid and handle. They feel expectedly flimsy, but as other reviewers have said, I'm optimistic that they could be replaced with a drawer knob or something when-- definitely when, not if-- they break. When I'm buying in this price range, it's definitely not something I can really fault Bodum for. This kettle also does feel a bit wobbly on the base, but only in the way of a table with a slightly short leg. The base is plastic and feels sort of cheap, because it is. Does that matter? Again, in this price range, I don't think it does. In all the ways that count, this kettle functions identically to higher-end, pricier kettles. It's annoying to clean and has flimsy handles. The cord is short. It doesn't heat up with turbo speed or hold a ton of water. But so what? For less than $30, nothing will give you a good and controlled pour, a quick boil, and neat design. UPDATE (April 2023): I've had this kettle for over a year now, and I'm still immensely pleased with it. The cork on the lid and handle is still holding up well-- honestly, it's still like new-- after daily use. It hasn't started to rust on the inside or anything. It's still in perfect shape; I'm honestly impressed. I have experienced the issue where water leaks out of the bottom a handful of times, but I think I've discovered what causes this: the mechanism that automatically turns off the kettle once it starts to boil is seemingly triggered by steam, and if I attempt to turn it back on to maintain boiling or if I reheat more water a few times in a row, the steam causes enough condensation buildup around the switch that some of the droplets come out. I don't think this is "leaking" at all; if anything, this is really my fault for trying to push the kettle beyond the scope of what the manufacturer intended. UPDATE 2 (October 2025): This kettle has been my go-to at home for more than two years now. It gets used at least once per day, if not more. It is still working flawlessly, and the cork on the lid and handle are still even attached.

Works great and looks great on the counter. Heats water quickly. I like how the bottom of the kettle stays cool so you can set it on any surface without damaging the surface. Easy to fill and rinse out.

I live at high altitude and will occasionally overboil if I'm not watching it. I think it leaks the water when it overboils as some type of failsafe, but it makes a mess. It's good other than that.

All steel inside. Cute, small, perfect for quick pour setup on small counter. For those who complained about leaking, etc. I have not had that experience in over a year of use. Maybe they fill it past the max fill tab? Don't do that, should be okay. Possible manufacture defect, but mine has been good. Black paint may scuff, so handle with care. I dump excess water after use, which is once or twice a day for over a year. Looks new inside. So, go for it. It's a cute small kettle with no plastic, except for the base.

First and foremost, let's talk about simplicity. The Bodum Gooseneck Electric Kettle couldn't be easier to use. With just the flick of a switch, it quickly and efficiently boils water to the perfect temperature for brewing coffee or tea. The gooseneck spout allows for precise pouring, giving me complete control over the water flow as I saturate the coffee grounds in my pour-over cone.

Whether I'm making a single cup or a full pot of coffee, the Bodum Gooseneck Electric Kettle delivers flawless results with minimal effort.

Despite this minor drawback, the Bodum Gooseneck Electric Kettle remains a staple in my kitchen arsenal. Its ease of use, precise pouring capabilities, and compatibility with the Bodum pour-over coffee maker make it an indispensable tool for any coffee lover.

My Mom has this electric water kettle in black and I was very impressed with it so I decided to get one for my kitchen. I got mine in chrome. It heats up water super quick so no need to use the stove top or microwave to heat up water for my hot chocolate/tea. It's very well designed and looks great on the counter. The only "criticism" I have is that the electric cord is kind of thick and stiff, but I suppose that is for safety reasons. There is a MAX line inside the kettle so don't fill water beyond that. If you need more water, just heat up some more. It really doesn't take that long. I read a couple reviews about concerns with the cork details but so far I have not had any issues with it. UPDATED REVIEW - November 20, 2024 I have owned this electric kettle for less than a year and already it is broken. VERY, VERY disappointed since I really loved its ease of use. I don't use this kettle a lot since it's mostly for heating up water for hot chocolate in the colder months. Well, I just started using it consistently again and the little pop-up button no longer pops up to stop the water from boiling. I thought it was just a fluke so the next day I used it again and the same thing happened. The water continues to boil since the button does not pop up. Grrr! And to top things off, now the kettle is leaking water from the bottom! (And no, I did not overfill the kettle). This kettle has gone from a great product to a huge disappointment and a potential safety hazard. I am way past the return window so the money I spend on this kettle is now down the drain. I am going to see if I can contact the seller but I am not holding out any hope. I have changed my star rating to 2 Stars. If I can contact the seller and get a satisfactory solution, I will change my star rating. For now I am a VERY upset and disappointed customer!! SECOND UPDATED REVIEW - November 22, 2024 I was unable to contact Bodum on my own since there was not a "Contact Seller" option on the Amazon product description. I decided to chat with an Amazon Cust Service rep. I explained the problem with the kettle hoping for a replacement. The rep gave me the phone # and website for Bodum to get help with the kettle replacement since it is still under warranty. I called Bodum but no one was answering the phone, so I emailed them a detailed description of the kettle's malfunction. I NEVER heard back from Bodum. Not even an acknowledgement that they received my email. Today, I decided to contact Amazon Cust Service again to see if they could reach out to Bodum on my behalf. The first rep did not offer to do that for me. He transferred me to another dept. The next two reps that I chatted with abruptly left the chat due to "technical difficulties." The fourth and last rep I chatted with finally offered to issue me a refund/return. I really just wanted a replacement kettle but that was not an option. The rep sent me an email with the UPS QR code that stated the amount of my refund. Only after I gave the kettle to UPS to send back to Amazon, did I receive another email stating that there would be an $8 restock fee!!!!!! This was not mentioned to me by the Amazon Rep!!! My question is, why am I being charged a restock fee for an item that is clearly damaged and will not be restocked??? It is going into the landfill. I am very disappointed in Amazon for not making this fee clear, and thus reducing my refund amount. I have changed my star review from 5 stars to 1 star. Very disappointed in Bodum, and now Amazon Customer Service for not disclosing the restock fee.

La busqué como opción económica a lo que quería y la verdad funciona de maravilla. La presentación que tiene se ve hermosa!

Optisch sehr schön u. Funktionell

Bought this for my wife to use with her V60 coffee filter as it allows for slow precise pouring over the ground coffee. Loved the styling and esthetics of this kettle. It came fitted with a US plug, so I had to spend extra on a US to UK adapter. Sadly after a couple of uses the bottom section of the kettle leaked out producing a pool of water under and around the base it sits on. Slightly worried that it was soaking an electrical connection. I reported the issue and Amazon have provided a return label and will be refunding my Amazon account. Wasn't confident in taking a replacement for this one. Will buy an alternative one with my credit. Now stuck with a US plug adapter that I don't need. Won't be returning it as it's not faulty. Worked just fine with this kettle.

I didn't pay enough attention to the capacity of this kettle so was surprised at how petite it was. Will boil enough for 2 standard cups of tea. Heats quickly, very nicely finished, love the interior water level gauge and the cork handle (and lid knob) comfortable to the touch. Initially resisted purchasing as wasn't confident the cork would hold up in the long run. Still not confident but it's a lovely little kettle and I'm happy enough with it thus far that I could probably rig up replacement knob+handle. I really like this little kettle, it's darling.

Me encanta es muy bonita, de nuy buena calidad, calienta el agua rápido no necesito llenarla al tope para que sirva bien.
