HOWDIANQY Dual Voltage Portable Electric Kettle Travel Hot Water for Tea,Coffee, 6 Temperature Controls and LCD Display, 304 Stainless Steel and Large Capacity 550ml, Auto Shut Off&Boil Dry Protection

Llegó rápido. Vivo en Perú donde la corriente es de 220V, y funciona muy bien. Es bastante práctico y viene con su estuche para guardar.

Update: I upgraded the rating to 4 stars. I was able to improve the usable capacity level by removing the inside cover of the lid and removing what appears to be a piece of vinyl or plastic that was sealing the vent holes. These holes are obviously there by design to allow steam to vent through the top vent slits, but for some reason they were covered/sealed at the factory. Removing this seal enabled me to increase capacity to about 17 oz without boiling water bubbling up through the vents. I noticed some sort of corrosion occurring on the bottom inside of the kettle, but I determined that it was just lime scale. The instructions on the box said to boil with lemon & water and it will remove the lime scale, so I added 10 oz of water with a lemon wedge and set the kettle to 212 degrees F. As soon as it hit 212, I turned off the kettle, unplugged it, removed the lid and all the lime scale was gone, so this was very good news. I've only used it about 20 times and I use filtered water every time, so I'll probably have to repeat this step about once a month. This kettle works OK, but not great. First of all, the advertised capacity isn’t realistic for actual usage. The “max capacity” line is slightly less than 19 US oz (550ml), but if it’s filled to that capacity, water bubbles out if the hole at an alarming rate, so it’s not safe at the max capacity. After experimenting with different levels, I determined that the practical max capacity is between 15 and 16 oz (under 473ml). At 16 oz, there’s still a slight overflow when the temperature hits boiling (212 degrees F), but it stops heating as soon as it hits 212, so only a few drops bubble out before it starts to cool, so I keep it under 16 oz. There is no way to vent the top without opening the hole cap, which is a significant design flaw IMO. It looks like there are slits in the lid designed to release steam when the hole cap is closed, but looks are deceptive. If you observe the pictures that I posted, you’ll see these vents on the top circled with a red line, then you’ll see a pic of the underside of the top with that same area circled with a red line, and as you can see, it’s completely sealed. The only way to vent steam (a must for safety reasons) is to leave the hole cap open, which allows boiling water to splatter all over the counter when filled over 16 oz. The other problem is that the description claims that it has “auto shut-off” and “boil dry protection”, but in my test, these features didn’t work. I boiled 16oz of water, emptied the kettle completely, bumped the desired temperature back to boil (212 degrees) and left it on with no water. I checked it after 15 minutes and it was still on with no water. I received this product at no charge as part of the Amazon Vine program, so since I have no money invested (apart from income tax on the value), I will continue to experiment to see if I can find a way to improve this kettle on my own. At this point, I can only recommend it if you’re OK with the diminished capacity and no auto shut-off.

Perfect for what I need it, heating up 16oz of water for coffee. I filled it up with exactly 16oz and it ended up being below the full line(see picture). I set the temp for coffee, the second to last temp(194) and no issues. The actual water temp was around 199.

Portable: Decent portability. Doesn't fit most backpack cup holders, so most likely you'll be carrying it in a bag or backpack. Outside can still be handled with boiling hot water inside. Boil speed: It takes less than 10 minutes or so, but there's not a lot of water it can heat up, Heat up: Gets to boiling temperature just fine. Functionality: Works okay, you don't want to fill it at max capacity as the water will boil over, but just under 2 cups is fine. Kettle quality: Pretty good quality with some exceptions. There's some parts that can eventually be broken. Cord length: The length is fine.

This kettle is really easy to use and travel with. However, I do think the build good be better. So at this price point that is something for you to consider. I didn't have any issues with figuring out how to use it or how to set it up. I also did not run into any issues bringing this along in my carryon.

It looks great, it's lightweight and portable, and it's easy to clean as long as you're just heating water. I've used the hardest test I can think of to prove it's worthy: making grits. Flawless. As long as it continues to work for a long time, it's worth buying. Much easier to carry around than a coffee maker, and likely will make it faster, too.

I use this in my office to make tea. Pros: + Variable temperatures; + Portable; + With the various temperatures you can make different items from boiling water for tea (like I use mine), making cocoa, making coffee, or I imagine heating up lunch! Cons: - I would have liked a slightly bigger size given the time it takes the water to come to higher temp. I make two 12oz cups and so 18 oz is not enough and the water took almost 12 minutes to get to temp. That means it takes me 24+ minutes to make two cups of tea :( which is slower than the microwave or a bigger pot on the stove.

This portable tea kettle is convenient. It is a great for travel. It heats up really well. I have mine at work. The kettle design is simple (resembles a coffee tumbler), lightweight and sturdy. This is a good product for tea drinkers.
