HYTRIC Travel Electric Kettle, 650ML Foldable Small Kettle, Portable Water Kettle with Dual Power Control, Collapsible Stainless Steel Water Boiler, Auto Shutoff & Boil Dry Protection, BPA-Free

In an age of conspiracy theories, I always wonder if competing sellers don't leave negative reviews for one another when they are selling what is essentially the exact same, Chinese made product. You know what I'm talking about? Where even the stock images are identical, with the same model of product and same human model showing it off... Is there an advantage to flooding a competitor with fake negative reviews in their spare time?For example, look at the pic I posted. One review I read said the top cover was "runner" and how intense steam would cause micro pieces of rubber to fall into your water/soup/whatever.... Well, the darn exterior is rubber but you can clearly see a metal plate that prevents exactly what that review claimed. Now there IS what seems to be a silicone gasket around the edge that helps seal the contact between the top and the kettle. But silicone is not rubber, nor does it seem to me the steam comes into contact where this would be a concern about foreign particles contaminating your food.This thing is exactly as advertised. I just boiled some water for tea and it took just shy of 4mins to get a rolling boil (I know, probably too hot for tea, but you get the point). What I like best is the chord rolls up into the cavity of the base, then the base and be out inisde the kettle itself for packing/travel. The handles fold around the kettle.I have a Jet Boil that I've used for camping and I've used for travel (minor coffee snob who hates the "free" hotel coffee maker). I just never felt comfortable with an open flame in a hotel room, let alone traveling with canisters for fuel, so I got this to replace that for travel. I'll keep the Jet Boil for camping. Starbucks instant coffee, tea, packet of instant oatmeal whole traveling, good ol Top Ramen whenever... I'm set. 10 mins into owning it, and I'm happy I bought it.This unit also has a constant heating option as well that I haven't played with and may never need.

This is fantastic. Great size and multipurpose. It was able to boil 500 mls of water in 6 minutes; I haven’t cooked anything with it yet. It would be completely perfect if it was dual voltage and I would definitely purchase one if there was one available! The quality is solid without being too heavy

Attractive, sturdy handles, well balanced, easy to clean and cleverly portable by design.... I love this kettle. Sadly it is still too large to pack in a suitcase for air travel without sacrificing a chunk of space, and this was my intended purpose. Amazing for office use, van life, or auto travel.

Good so far. I've only used it a handful of times. I take it with me when traveling since some hotels I stay in don't have in room kettles.

I bought this electric kettle for camping and outdoor use, and it totally met my expectations. The boiling time is just as fast as I hoped — quick enough to enjoy a hot drink without waiting too long, even in cooler weather.It’s compact and lightweight, which makes it easy to pack and carry. The build quality feels solid, and it handled outdoor conditions without any issues. I also like the simple design and ease of use — just plug it in, and it gets the job done.If you’re looking for a dependable kettle for outdoor adventures, this one won’t disappoint.

I keep this at my desk to have instant coffee and or tea and it is a game changer in a small office when we are busy!

I thought this was decent. It does what it needs to do. I'm not a big fan of the foldable handle, thought it was kind of annoying and the power button is right beneath it.Update-Feb 28Hasn't been very long and the metal plate on the bottom of the lid broke off. Disappointed

Better than heating water up for tea in the microwave.
