Heats notably faster than a stovetop kettle and doubles as a teapot with its built-in infuser, though it shuts off too early for serious pour-over coffee.

Overview
A 1.2 liter cordless electric kettle with a glass body, stainless steel removable tea infuser, and a 1500-watt heating element. LED lights show when it's heating and shut off automatically at a boil, and the base swivels 360 degrees for easy pouring.
Chefman cites Circana retail-tracking data naming it a top-selling electric kettle brand in 2024, a manufacturer claim rather than an independent test. One reviewer found the auto shut-off cuts in before the water is hot enough for pour-over coffee, so it leans more toward tea and general hot water use.
- 1.2 liter glass cordless kettle
- 1500-watt heating element
- Removable stainless steel tea infuser
- Auto shut-off with boil-dry protection
Who it's for
Good for tea drinkers who want a fast-heating kettle with a built-in infuser and don't need a specific temperature for coffee. Less suited to pour-over coffee brewing, since the auto shut-off triggers before water reaches coffee-brewing temperature for at least one reviewer.
Pros and cons
- Built-in infuser steeps loose-leaf tea directly
- Auto shut-off and cordless base for easy pouring
- Auto shut-off cuts in before water is hot enough for pour-over coffee
- Infuser is the most fiddly part to clean
- Glass-to-base heating connection is an unproven long-term wear point per one reviewer
Performance notes
A concealed heating element pulls around 1500 watts to bring water to a boil in well under 4 minutes for a full liter, and blue LED indicators track the heating stage before an auto shut-off cuts power at the boiling point. The removable stainless steel infuser sits in the lid, letting loose-leaf tea steep directly in the carafe. The base detaches fully for cordless pouring.

Frequently asked questions
Can I use loose-leaf tea?
Yes, it comes with a removable stainless steel infuser that sits in the lid.
Is it good for pour-over coffee?
One reviewer said no, the auto shut-off triggers before the water gets hot enough for coffee brewing, so it's better suited to tea and hot water.
