JBK Variable Temperature Control Pour Over Gooseneck Electric Kettle for Specialty Coffee and Tea, Matte Black

Great kettle. Water flow is excellent and easily controlled with pouring technique. I can achieve an almost vertical stream of water when pouring from even a low height. Capacity is good. Heats water to boiling in around 2 minutes when filled to maximum recommended 800ml capacity. Only downside is the beep. It’s loud. It beeps every time you select a function. It beeps when the water hits temperature. It beeps when you put it on the base. Despite the annoying beep, I love the coffee this helps me make albeit jarring at 6am. The kettle’s performance is fantastic. I was tempted to get the stove top Fellow Stagg but I’m glad I went with this. I was only wanting the aesthetic of the Stagg and that’s just stupid given the difference in price. Is it’s main function of being a variable temperature kettle that keeps water warmed acceptable for the price? Yes, it does what it’s supposed to and it’s not a headache to get it to do that. If you’ve read this far, buy the damned thing; you obviously care enough to know if you should be dissuaded if you’re reading my ramblings on it. Will update if I find a cure for the beep.

Really good product, have used it often since I purchased it. However, there are some difficulties with the lid getting stuck, and the handle is quite fragile, I've had the product for about 6 months and the handle has already snapped off, rendering it unusable. Good product, but be careful.

Bigger, sturdier, more substantial than you expect. It has great functionality and the buttons and dial feel really well made, doesn’t feel or look as cheep as you’d think. Flow rate is good and easy to control. Temperature is accurate and stable, it retains the heat well too even without the keep warm function. Overall a great kettle!

The lid is far too tight to get off and on Takes twice as long then an ordinary kettle to boil Keep warm button turns off in a few seconds Says temperature before water is in the kettle So it went from 41 degrees to 100 so it only gave 60 degrees temperature for the boiled water I am going to return this product Not a penny is worth for this item

Great kettle, love its ease of use and the keep warm feature for when I’m out on a tour I can keep it near my desk and know I’ve got water for my coffee to hand

It does the job, but the keep warm button stopped functioning after a week’s use. It also stays boiling for like 10 Seconds at 100 degrees before it switches off. Lastly, it takes a while to boil a full kettle. Wouldn’t buy it again, but i am still using it because it does the basic job of boiling water and has a pretty good spout for steady pouring.

I love this kettle. Not only does it look fantastic, it brings water to temperature quickly, and the spout allows intricate control when using for pour overs. The 'keep warm' function comes in very handy, as do the preset temperature settings. My only gripe is the 850ml capacity. Would be perfect if it could deal with 1 litre. Anything more than 850ml, and water spurts through the holes in the lid on boiling - though set the temperature to 95 degress, and this doesn't happen... ;-) All in all, excellent.

Sadly I had to return this beautiful looking kettle as it only filled 2 cups and we tend to make 3 or 4 at a time. It would only fill half a pan too when making pasta. We considered keeping it for the guest bedroom because it's so nice and quiet but it was a bit expensive as a second, not really needed kettle.
