Try buying one in the US that isn’t made in China.

I just started using a French press because I was sick of making 4 cups just for myself in the drip machine. Been meaning to get an electric kettle.

Although i like things that are simple and just work, dont fix it if it aint broken, and hate over-engineered technology... It still is funny to me that if we want to heat things up, we do it by running current through a piece of metal. Isnt there a more efficient way? I guess not or we would be using it.

Every other method is too unreliable. Sure, heating water by letting it sit in sunny weather is technically infinite efficiency, but the weather doesn't care about your tea.

Induction stoves and microwaves are improvements for certain scenarios.

A lot of people probably use the hot water tap on water dispensers now.

Tap water rarely goes anywhere near boiling temperature

I rarely use all four elements on my stove at the same time so 99% of the time the kettle is sitting on an unused element instead of taking up counter space like an electric kettle would.
