I was on a search for a new kettle. which I wanted to be with temperature control and without any plastic parts where it comes in contact with water.
It could be a little tricky to find an electric kettle like that, as the internal top of the lid and level indicators are often plastic. It is a little hard to tell from the photos, but the internal part of the lid does look stainless to me. It looks like a decent quality one to me overall, I was not able to find anything of better value.
This one was $99 in the morning, but they have just reduced it to match Harvey Norman and other stores.

A god among men…
double wall stainless is great, but the reviews are scathing..
I would say mixed. Would have to see for ourselves once it arrives.
5000 model has much better review
@cy9 perhaps they're even scolding ….. ;)
I think you meant scalding.
Sick burn!

Temp settings 40,60,70,80,90,100° for those wondering.
I'm buying this as our current kettle is increments of 20° and the Minister of War and Finance complains that she can't make tea at 70°. First world problems.
Thanks OP.
Yeah but now she can’t have 50°
I'd better not tell her that or she'll want to keep both kettles…
Is this 100% free of any plastic touching hot water? Any internal mechanism? The filter in the spout?
I think the spout is fine. But just as I say, a bit hard to see every little detail from photos and no youtube reviews.
99.9%, temperature sensor at the bottom, but the 5000 model should be 100%
Crazy how much more we pay here for the same appliances. Bought the white version of this in China for family members and cost us $21 AUD.
Pretty solid kettle though, light ish and some nice indicator lights.
$74 at checkout with prime.
No it's not, still $79 at checkout with Prime
You need to use promo code 'PRIMEINFO1'
Oh, maybe doesn't work. Just errors out with no error text.
I'm keeping an eye on this Mijia kettle and wondering whether anyone has this one and can provide review?
Xiaomi kettles are one of the best in the market.
I own one and bought a few for relatives, we love it.
Maybe have a look at Xiaomi kettle pro 2. Around same price range with more functions. Stainless steel all on the inside and spout. AliExpress
It does look nicer by features. So, maybe Xiaomi kettle pro 2 is a better one.
1800W is a bit slower than 2200W, but 2400W is going to be ideal for kettles
The bottom has teflon coating. which i think is a great idea to prevent scales, plus the temperature is controlled so not to worry about over heating.
u mean the xiaomi or the phillips?
Looks to be all stainless steel interior from the website, dont seem to mention any teflon
https://www.mi.com/global/product/xiaomi-smart-kettle-2-pro/Picture shows interior, looks stainless steel
Thanks, just bought Xiaomi kettle pro 2
Where did u buy from?
Aliexpress
Wait is the voltage difference going to be an issue when buying kettles from China?
Seems like ok from buyers from Australia from reviews
Curse my missus for insisting we get a Smeg with no temp control or other features for $195.
If it didn’t have the Smeg brand smacked on it, your wife probably wouldn’t have bought it.
100% correct.
It's funny. Smeg means different things to different people. If you're a Red Dwarf fan, it probably won't induce you to buy.
Funny that, we had Smeg as a present about 6 months ago but it is a bit useless without temp control so gathering dust on a shelf at the moment…
russel hobbs have a similar temp controlled one, occasionally on sale for $50-60. it's great.
Lots of plastic in it, I had one like that. Also, hard to see temperature writings on the buttons.
I have the 5000 model I bought for $40 (no temp control). https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/890648
The lid doesn't open properly. It will get stuck every 2nd opening attempt to fill it up. You will need to modify the notch the lid lever slides in. You will know what I mean when you inspect the mechanism.
I didn’t realise the lid opens all the way until the next day lol
It does bother me that the open button needs a second hand to push, otherwise a decent unit for the price.
Our shiddy kettle broke a few months ago, we've just been boiling water in a stainless steel pan on the hob.
Hardly really make tea, and we have a coffee machine we use almost dailycool story what does this have to do with the offer
Kettle
I tried that for a few days, and it just so happens I needed to fill a hot water bottle. Kettles are pretty essential. Need to get one for the car then I’m all set :)
Ha. Same. I got the whistling stove top kettle and got used to it now. Bonus, no plastic.
I have this kettle for a while so here's a quick review.
Pro: temperature control, double walled, internal stainless steel, large capacity 1.7L, min to boil is 1 cup
Cons: lid is stupid. Doesn't open all the way with one click, have to push it with your hand on top of the hot steam. It boils to set temperature only, not to 100C then cool down so no good if you want to make baby formula.Isn't that the point of the temperature control, to heat the water to the selected temperature (eg. 70, 80, 90 etc).
Otherwise wouldn't you just boil it normally, and then let it cool off?My previous kettle was a Xiaomi. Via Bluetooth you can also set it to boil to 100C and cool down then keep at 40 C for 24h to make baby formula.
that lid is designed to open half way with a click, to prevent the hot steam releases to the face.
Except that there is no other click to open it fully. My previous Xiaomi kettle has two stop clicks. One to open halfway and press again to fully open.
Dispatch times shows longer in amazon
Just need a simple kettle with basic function but no plastic interior , any recommendation?
