Our verdict

—

For a dependable, inexpensive kettle from a long-established brand, this 1.7 L Hamilton Beach covers the basics well. The trade-off: it only boils — there are no temperature settings or keep-warm for green tea or pour-over coffee.

If all you need is hot water for tea, instant coffee, oatmeal or noodles, this Hamilton Beach kettle does the job without extras you will not use. It holds 1.7 liters (7.2 cups), heats with 1500 W, and switches itself off when the water boils, with boil-dry protection if it runs empty. The heating element is concealed for easier cleaning, a water-level window and power light show what is happening, the drip-free spout pours cleanly, and the cordless jug lifts off its base for serving.

Why you’ll like it

  1. 01

    Enough hot water for the whole family's tea in one go: 1.7 liters.

  2. 02

    Safe to walk away from: auto shutoff when it boils, and boil-dry protection.

  3. 03

    Easier to keep clean: a concealed heating element instead of an exposed coil.

  4. 04

    Simple to use: one switch, a power light and a water-level window.

Great for

  • Families who boil water several times a day
  • Students, dorms and first apartments
  • Office kitchens

Maybe skip it if
