Maestri House 8-In-1 Gooseneck Electric Kettle with ±1°F Temperature Control, 90° Steady Water Flow, 1200W Quick Heating, Keep Warm, LCD Display, Child Lock, Timer, Strix Thermostat 0.95L (Black)

The first one that arrived was faulty. I called Amazon and I returned it after trying some troubleshooting. I received a fast replacement, and this kettle makes me happy! It’s beautiful, has an elegant pour and it heats up quickly! Love it.

Great product, quality materials, easy use and understanding of functions, precision pour adds an element of sophistication. Highly recommend.

If you are a little bit nerdy about your coffee and tea brewing temperature, this kettle is excellent. You can fine-tune the temperature by single degrees, not 5 or 10. One caveat, if you overfill it, it will spill out when you are pouring. A tiny thing, just a little FYI.

Worked well for a month but now the won’t heat up

The media could not be loaded. Heats fast, looks good, great price, easy to clean, pretty reliableon temp control. Using it for pour over coffee. Works like a charm. 10/10 would recommend

This gooseneck electric kettle looks great out of the box. Cord is long enough, base is stable, lid fits snug. It is a little plastick-y up close (the seam of the chrome to the plastic in the handle is noticeable by feel), but you might forgive it since it is so cute and retro-looking. I was apparently one of the few people who must have panic-hit the child lock button off right out of the box but if it wasn't that button that caused me to trip up, it would have been the rest of the manual. The manual leaves a lot to be desired. Turning this on and off is not as clear cut in execution as the manual makes you think. The lights you want to depend on to be indicators are also not bright enough to be useful indicators. I eventually settled on just mashing the button until I got the hang of turning it on and off again, without activating the timer (which I didn't understand why I needed a timer when I had such control of water temperature, but maybe I've been boiling water wrong). Turning the right knob does nothing for helping turn on or off the kettle - it's just temperature, not matter what the instructions imply.I also came across a weird spillover in my experimentation. Not knowing how hot I brew water (my current kettle is just turn on and auto shuts off), I went to the max temp of 212 and turned it on. The kettle was filled halfway between the Min and Max lines inside. Just before it reach 212 degrees (around 210), hot water boiled out of the gooseneck spout! This...doesn't seem like a good or useful thing, so I messed around with some settings until I couldn't reproduce boiling water spilling out of the gooseneck unexpectedly, and I was able to safely boil the max amount of water to 204 just fine. Just, the manual doesn't mention max temps causing overflow, so keep that in mind. A lot of more standard electric kettles with tiny spouts only have max fill line so they don't splash out when they boil, but this gooseneck sits very low so apparently being max temperature acts the same as max fill line.It does boil extremely fast. You will spend longer pouring out of the thin, fancy gooseneck than it did boiling, I swear. I use a french press, so waiting to pour out of the fancy spigot was a bit ridiculous. This needs more pomp and ceremony. Now, when I aimed this over a tea strainer and an aeropress coffee maker, this elevated the experience.So verdict is: cute, sassy, wants to do rockabilly when it grows up and would take to a tea ceremony, but it's a bit much for an electric kettle, which come in much easier flavors than this. Grab this for a good time, not to be a workhorse for Folgers.

Temp controls are nice! The handle is a little annoying, but it pours very well. The color is true to the picture.

I used to just put a regular kettle on the stove for hot water, but after research found that the water temperature can make a difference in the flavor of both teas and coffees. So this electric kettle with temperature control seemed like just the answer. And it was...for less than a year. Now the temperature readings go all over the place. For example, it may go from saying it's 95C (my usual setting for dark roast coffee) to 78C, then heats up some more, then when I turn off the kettle and back on (because I know it already reached 95C just seconds before it started to heat up again), the reading has gone to 100C! I don't know what is causing this, because the kettle has not been dropped or soiled or water poured over, etc.I can go on about the poor design of the electronic components, but I'll try to keep it short as it appears this product is no longer available anyway (probably due to too many defects being reported). Like other people have noted, the display is very dim. There is no way to change the brightness. There are also two dial-buttons (each is a dial that you can turn, but also you can push as a button). The left is for warming the water and keeping it warm at a set temperature, for a set duration you can select with the same dial. The right is for warming the water, and after it reaches the set temperature, it turns off. My question is: what' the point of the right dial-button??? Because if you don't want to keep the water at a set temperature (which seems to me like the whole point of an electric kettle vs. just putting a kettle on the stove), you can just set the timeout on the left to a brief duration, like five minutes. Unless you're waiting right by the kettle to hit the right temperature, upon which you're going to have to start pouting that hot water right away (before the temperature so drops that it's no longer in your preferred temperature), I don't see the point. And the dial-button is awkward - it's so easy to inadvertently turn the dial as you press it as a button (to turn on/off), so that your temperature target goes off by a degree or two. I think a single dial and a button or switch, rather than a dial-button, is preferable and a clearer design.Recently I noticed the handle being a bit loose. Was it always like that? Or is it headed for catastrophic failure, just as I'm about to pour steaming hot water? Uh oh. The poor electronics makes me now worry about the kettle itself. Time for a new electric kettle...It's a shame because the kettle itself is nice and attractive green, and just the right size for my purposes. The gooseneck helps with a more measured pour (I read some people complaining about the slow pour, but if you don't want a slow pour, you just don't get a gooseneck, it's just basic physics isn't it). But it's clear the this Maestri House 8-In-1 Gooseneck Electric Kettle was not ready for prime time.
