Reviewed in the United States on February 2, 2024
I recently upgraded my tea-making routine with Bodum’s Melior Gooseneck Electric Tea Kettle, and I'm thrilled with the results. This kettle combines precision and convenience in a sleek, modern design that has become an indispensable part of my daily life.

The standout feature of this kettle is its precision pour. The gooseneck spout offers a controlled, steady flow of hot water, which is perfect for brewing a variety of teas, from delicate greens to robust black teas. It's a game-changer for tea enthusiasts who value the exact water temperature and brewing time.

The convenience factor cannot be overstated. It is a time-saver and ensures that my tea is brewed to perfection every time. The kettle is durable, easy to clean, and the matte black finish adds a touch of elegance to my kitchen countertop.

In addition to its tea-making capabilities, I've found this kettle to be versatile for other hot water needs, such as pour-over coffee, instant oatmeal, or even preparing hot water for cooking. It's a versatile kitchen appliance that serves multiple purposes.

Overall, the Electric Gooseneck Tea Kettle has elevated my tea-drinking experience and simplified my daily routines. It's a reliable, well-designed addition to any kitchen, and I highly recommend it to fellow tea and coffee lovers who appreciate precision and convenience in their brewing process.

Reviewed in the United States on September 20, 2021
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. I suspect it agitated the coffee bed more, even if 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.

Simple, fast hot water for tea, oatmeal, and noodles. Works great and looks very modern. Worth the price and makes plenty of hot water for repeat cups.

He's up very quickly, I love how minimal and small space that it takes up. I use this for my pour over coffee maker. The first one I did have to return because it was leaking at the bottom, however they sent me out a second one with no charge and so far this one is okay

Reviewed in the United States on March 4, 2024
I have an expensive kettle at home. It looks similar but allows you to select the exact temperature and will hold that temperature for 30 minutes if you leave the water in the kettle. My husband is a coffee snob. This is esthetically similar and boils water quickly. It is small, lightweight and perfect if you drink a lot of tea or instant coffee.

5.0 out of 5 stars Where has this been all my life?
Reviewed in the United States on April 25, 2022
Update: Ok, I still love it, however, I did realize that I wasn't paying attention to the maximum fill line. It is lower than I would have anticipated. WHILE OVERFILLING, I did experience some leaking. SINCE NOT OVERFILLING, I have zero leakage :) It is still perfect for me needs!
Where do I start? This product is PERFECT for my needs and I don't know why I didn't order it years ago!
I needed a fast heating option for just a couple cups. My gas stove kettle seemed to take 15 or 20 minutes to come to a boil, then it was tricky to pour it in the pour over without dripping it on the counter.
This one, even at full capacity, takes less than 5 minutes to bring to 'just below' boiling temp. I don't think it rolls to a full boil. That's totally ok for my need. Within minutes I have a neat and tidy no spill pour for my tea, or my pour-over. I love it!
It is a little difficult to clean because of the piece that comes up the center, but that is a small price to pay for the quick timing of getting hot water!
OH!, and it's pretty, too! :)

Reviewed in the United States on April 17, 2024
My first gooseneck kettle and it’s lovely. A great value. It’s much smaller than my regular one that just died but I think it’s adequate for pour overs. My only irritation with it is that I can’t fill it directly with filtered water on my fridge dispenser. The spout is just too long and it won’t fit under the dispenser. This is annoying because we have terrible hard water but this is a first world problem.
