- Double-wall stainless steel construction
- Auto shut-off and boil-dry protection

Who it's for
Fits anyone wanting a fast, quiet-enough kettle with a plastic-free interior for tea or cooking water. Buyers wanting an exterior water-level window with cup markings, or who have had a recent Secura unit arrive with a defective base, should factor that into the decision.
Pros and cons
- All stainless steel interior with no plastic touching water
- Boils quickly, reported around a couple of minutes for a full kettle
- Exterior stays cool to the touch during use
- No exterior water-level window, only interior liter markings
- Outer coating can carry a chemical smell that fades over weeks
- At least one reported defective base on a replacement unit
- Audible as water approaches boiling
Performance notes
The double wall construction is reported to boil quickly, in the range of a couple of minutes for a full kettle, while keeping the exterior cool to the touch. Fill lines are marked only inside the kettle at roughly half liter, one liter and 1.7 liter, with no outside window, so owners fill by the interior markings rather than a sight gauge.
