My current water kettle leaks more by the day. It is mostly stainless steel, but the few plastic parts are corroded and lead to leaking.

Do you have recommendations for fully stainless steel or similar kettles that are basically not able to break?

I was looking at this: https://www.digitec.ch/de/s1/product/xiaomi-wasserkocher-170-l-wasserkocher-23599517

But I don’t really trust xiaomi to make quality consumer products

    Not OP, but if you’ve got a good recommendation for a 120v kettle I’d love it.

          not just a kettle but one you buy for life and that permanently keeps the water at 208 F while using only 10 Watts/h

            10watts on stand-by? That’s impressive. I didn’t find that info on the website. Can you point me to where that is? plz

              the power consumption is listed in the manual not on their website unfortunately. as for sturdiness these things are built for restaurant use and it’s where they are mostly found for the purpose of infrequent instant hot water where one usually boils a full kettle from scratch. I’ve burned through three standard electric kettle here in the US over the years and had enough.

                10w is impressively low. And totally justifies the convenience in a lot of cases.

                Thanks for the info.
