HYTRIC Travel Electric Kettle, 650ML Stainless Steel Foldable Kettle

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.

I was looking for a travel kettle since I drink a lot of tea and wanted an easy way to stay hydrated while traveling, without having to buy water bottles or heat water in the microwave or coffee maker. This travel kettle did not disappoint. I love how light and compact it is, and how quickly it heats the water. It also didn't take up much room in my suitcase, so I'll always have hot drinking water on hand. The only issue is that it doesn't have an automatic shut-off, but it does re-boil if you forget to turn it off. Once I hear it re-boil, it reminds me to shut off the switch. Overall, I highly recommend this travel kettle and would buy it again.

It works really well. Heats up fast and convenient when I'm on the road. The handle stays cool so it can be held like a large mug while eating. The cleanup is super easy too. It all fits right back in the carrying bag. I also store it in its box in my trunk. The only downside is that the lid is flimsy. I bought one for a family member. She accidentally dropped the lid and it snapped apart. The inner piece broke off at the singular connection point and could not be repaired. We sent hers back and I'm being extra careful with mine now. Seems like a poor design choice. Overall it's a good value for the price and convenience.

This kettle cup is very beautiful and good quality. I was very delighted when I received this kettle cup, and showed it to my sisters than they loved it and wanted it. So I purchased it three times. And The price is not expensive. Because the manufacturer sells it itself, The manufacturer is also very honest. I've bought it for three months ago and the price hasn't increased. This kettle cup is great for singles and seniors. It is light weight and easy to clean. After cooking, it can be used as a bowl and eaten directly without pouring it out. So it's very convenient. I was using it for three months and twice a day. it's still as good as new. I am really satisfied. I have been looking for a product like this for a long time. It makes my life better. I look forward to having such a cute electric grill in the future.

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 28 Hasn't been very long and the metal plate on the bottom of the lid broke off. Disappointed

Water gets hot very quick. Boiling. Handle is sleek but the button is small and hard to get to sometimes. Great for tea and melting things and probably so much more. Durable. Quality kettle.

the top edge of where the metal meets the plastic isnt connected properly, the build quality is kind of bad. The bottom seems to only heat one side of the unit, but for water or soup this isnt bad. It made spaghetti pretty easily. took a while to boil but im 1000 feet above sea level. i like how compact it is and how wide the opening is. The lid makes water pour out of it slowly for draining things like pasta difficult. i mostly use constant heat, i have a water boiler that boils water nicely though this is bigger than that one. Great for van life, My battery bank said 685 watts when i had other things plugged in too but nothing with great power drain, so its probably closer to 650 watts or 675 watts than 600 watts. the folding handles are nice, its kind of wobbly on the power source stand but once there is liquid in it it is more stable. lightweight and portable.

Works well for camping but you may be better off using gas if you have a lot of things to heat up or cook. It takes about 7 to 10 minutes to boil a pot and pulls about 650 W. On average it takes about 100 Wh, which can add up if you're doing it a few times a day and don't have a lot of solar or an outlet handy to recharge. Absolutely rocks at travel. If you have a plug, this little thing is great. I love that it keeps your water warm if you walk off from it and come back later to brew your tea or coffee.
