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

      169$ is pretty steep… Also it has too much electronics for a kettle imho

        I didn’t get the one with Bluetooth or WiFi or whatever. Just turn it on and set temp. But yea it isn’t the cheapest.

          It is, without a doubt, the most expensive water kettle I’ve ever seen. Maybe if you went online and specifically looked for a more expensive one you could find it. I’m not that into hot water. Shiiid, if I’m desperate, I’ll turn the tap to highest, and put it on my widest skillet, turn the stove on to max. Clean water, boiling in lickety-split.

          Edit: I stand, immediately, corrected. The Zojirushi listed below is actually more expensive, and I didn’t have to search online for it.

      Have a couple of these and the buttons are inconsistent. Can take multiple presses to turn on, apparently a common issue with no fix. I still like them since it’s a pretty minor fault, but worth knowing before buying
