Tea lovers have been all but ignored by big coffee fans. As they wax on and on about their favorite coffee makers and coffee grinders, tea drinkers are out here wondering when someone's going to clamor over the humble device that can deliver boiling water at a moment's notice. Well, let us present: the clamor.
If you think about it, electric kettles should really be a must-have appliance for anyone who frequently needs boiling water — whether for tea, pasta, coffee, or even eggs (yes, eggs!). When pit against traditional stovetop kettles, electric kettles reign supreme. They're quieter, provide faster results, and will keep your water warm for much longer than a stovetop pot. There's also the fact that the aesthetics tend to be so much more appealing—unique and down-right attractive, even—than your grandma's kettle.
Whether or not you're someone who considers yourself a tea connoisseur or someone who knows a watched pot never boils, there's an electric kettle to fit your needs. Before you can start using one, though, you'll need to pick up a good model. We've got plenty to choose from.

If you're new to the world of electric tea kettles, the Mueller Premium Electric Kettle with SpeedBoil Tech is a good starter option: It's got incredible ratings (4.7 out of 5 stars from over 15,000 reviewers on Amazon) and remains totally cost-effective. It's easy to use and gets the job done quickly. There are marks on the body of the kettle to help you measure exactly how much water to boil. That max line will prevent any spill-over on the hot plate.

Whether you're shopping for an electric kettle to take on your next road trip or just want to be able to tuck it away instead of it cluttering your countertop after each use, the LOUTYTUO Silicone Foldable Electric Kettle should be the first one you consider. Available in five colors, the kettle is made of safe food-grade protective material, has a one button design, and when unfolded, is about the height of an iPhone X. Avid travelers will also appreciate that you can change the voltage of the pot (from 110V to 220V) so it can be used all around the world.
Capresso Stainless Steel Water Kettle
Pros
- Keep warm function
- Adjustable temperature in one degree increments
- Boil-dry protection
Cons
If you're more of a coffee drinker than a tea sipper, the Capresso Stainless Steel Water Kettle is for you. It has a gooseneck spout to deliver a perfectly controlled pour, plus a timer, 72 temperature settings, and is an easy-grab handle—all great features for making pour over coffee.
Pros
- Nonslip feet
- Auto shut-off
Cons
An electric kettle is easier to handle than a stovetop one, sure, but they're not inherently easy for all to use. The Uccello Electric Safety Kettle has a rotating cradle that makes pouring boiled water simple for disabled or elderly tea lovers. The pot stays in the base and simply tilts to dispense liquid. That base is detachable, too, if needed.

Rated 4.8 out of 5 stars by more than 2,000 reviewers, the Cosori Electric Gooseneck Kettle is a beloved pick.

Pros
- Available in several sizes and designs
- Auto shut off for safety
- Marked fill lines
Cons

ICOOKPOT Multi-Use Electric Kettle with Infuser

The infuser can be easily removed to make the cleaning process effortless.
