HYTRIC Travel Electric Kettle, 700ML Foldable Small Electric Kettle BPA-Free, Portable Kettle with Multifunctional Panel, Collapsible Hot Water Kettle with Keep Warm & Delay Start, 110V Black

As I am an American citizen, having grown up using inches, feet, yards, and miles for measurement of distance, I also grew up using Fahrenheit to measure degrees of temperature. As a current 74 years "Old-fart", I still prefer Fahrenheit. I tried to adapt to converting centigrade to fahrenheit with this device, but I got tired of the headache.I have to say that the device worked flawlessly for me, and the only reason I returned it for replacement of a different model is only because of the readout being in only centigrade. Yes, that's a pretty weak reason, but I just can't get used to trying to think of how much Fahrenheit I'm looking at when looking at a Centigrade readout.I KNOW boiling water is 100° C, and I KNOW ice is 0° C, but the only other for sure knowledge I have regarding Celsius versus Fahrenheit is 28° C is equal to 68° F. I know this because that seems to be the desired temperature for developing film and paper, at least that was the norm back in the '80s and nineties when I was heavily into photography and did my own processing in my own dark room... lol. However, other than boiling and freezing and 20° C, it truly is a pain in the head for me to try to figure out say what 26.7° C is_ which is 80° f.As mentioned above, other than the Centigrade readout thing, I found this to be a very nice collapsible hot pot, or whatever you want to call it. And I think it's one of the smallest collapse of all the other brands out there, but I may be wrong about that.I would highly recommend this item to anyone looking for a very small and convenient way of carrying a device that will boil water for them. I would recommend it for family and friends, as long as they don't mind the Centigrade readout.

The media could not be loaded. I use this electric kettle about 3-5 times a day at work for the last 6 months, and it's been an amazing investment.Pros:- Temperature Thermometer is accurate and unlike many pots I've had claiming this feature, this one will actively drop in temp if you add cool water to the reservoir.- Rapid boiling for a kettle; this is partly due to its smaller size,- No ridges like other collapsible travel kettles. Smooth walls make for easy cleanup and the material seems thicker than the accordion versions I've tested.- Keep warm feature keeps the water above 60°C for a few hours, so if you need to boil quickly (say right before a meeting), it'll do it in half the time.- Other features like delay start and tea will control when and how long the device turns on. For example boil egg will keep the water boiling for a set period of time. Because of the timer and delay start features there's a lot of ways to control this kettle beyond many similarly priced versions.Cons:- Handle: The snap for the handle needs to be pressed firmly and requires you to adjust your grip. When you pour, you cannot put your hand on it because it's a press release, and since it's at the top of the kettle I almost released mine the first time I picked it up. However the adjustment was easy for me to make and has had no further issues.- Electrical cord location: The cord is behind the control panel on the back, meaning it's on the side when you are gripping it by the handle. I know why this was part of the design (so the handle could fold seamlessly) but I kinda wish the handle was a turn type instead, because when you cleanup the pot, you are holding by the handle and trying to keep both the control panel and the power outlet clear. I've ended up holding the kettle by the base to clean as the control.Moots:- Touch interface. Some people will like it, some people won't. I personally like it despite the few times it doesn't register, because I hate when I've had button ones that require me to hold the unit just to press down. I'd rather the one handed operation any day.- C° Display: I personally prefer Celsius because it's the temperature system based on water boiling, and it's more accurate for teas and coffee. However since so many items in the US list F°, it is sometimes a pain to translate these temps. I don't mind figuring this out myself as this pot is designed for countries using the metric system.Spout: The water pour is precise, but it's sensitive because it's spout is short. This because it's so compact and I've have this with other kettles that are designed with short spouts. This means you have to pour slowly and press on the lid to create a tight seal. If you pour too fast, the water shoots a good 3-5 inches away from the spout, depending on the amount and heat of the water. It's predicable, but something that takes time to learn.

Heats up fairly quickly and works well on-the-go especially in hotels. The temperature is only in celcius which is not ideal, but not a deal breaker since it works and wasn't listed as otherwise in the product description. I do wish the temperature options were more specific, as most of the options seem to just boil the water, but overall it's good in a pinch.

It takes about 8 minutes to boil a full kettle of room 68 degree water. However, I use this with my power station so I try to conserve power. I only boil what I need at the moment. Typically, enough water for a cup of coffee or tea (12oz). That only takes about 3 mins. It's the perfect size. Much easier than pulling out my induction burner and sauce pan. I look forward to testing its noodle boiling function. It's a little pricey but mostly worth it for its functionality and collapsiblity. It does read in Celsius and I haven't figured out if it can be changed to Fahrenheit yet.

Works great and perfect for travel- camping or in a hotel.

This worked for 2 months then it just died. Lights just flash won’t heat up. I can’t find any information about how to contact anyone so I’m just out of luck. Don’t waste your money like I did.

I haven't tested it yet, but I have opened it and checked it. Everything is good so far. I will take it to Taiwan, so I hope it will be normal when I use it.

It’s works well.
