Greater Goods Electric Gooseneck Kettle, 1200W Stainless Steel with Precision Temperature Control, Fast Boil, BPA-Free, Ideal for Pour Over Coffee and Tea,1L (Onyx Black)

This kettle is lovely. Like many folks I was initially impressed with the careful, non-plastic, recyclable paper packaging it shipped in, other than a couple of protective slip covers for the kettle and base, which (at least) have the consistency of tiny biodegradable garbage bags.The warranty is front and center with the delightful, easily readable, stitched user manual about the size of a small Field Notes pad.The kettle is everything my old cranky Bonavita wasn't. It's simpler, intuitive, faster, can actually hold water at a consistent temperature, and no plastic touches the water.The real test will be longevity. Can it outlast the 7 years I got from the Bonavita? Hard to say, but I treat my kitchen tools with respect and care, so we will see.The Morning Bloom kettle is an amazing product and I am happy with its initial quality. I bought it over exceedingly overpriced kettles at a fair price.My detailed research indicates that there is not a lock on better quality or materials and construction for overpriced brands, so their extravagant pricing is unjustified, unless you want a name, or particular design.Lastly, beyond heating accuracy, the Morning Bloom is well balanced, pours like a dream, as fast or as slow as needed, without the inconsistent dribbles the Bonavita gave out when pouring slowly.If this is your first, second, or even third kettle, prepare to be spoiled and enjoy perfectly brewed coffee pour-overs and teas.

Lots of reviews dont cut to the chase here. It works exactly how you want. If you are a coffee weirdo like me, it pours easily, comes up to temp fast, achieves the right temp, easy to adjust, no annoying noises, auto shuts off, and is easy to clean. The small counter footprint is a massive plus. It looks good too. You could spend twice as much on other brands but why? I hope it lasts but so far it looks new after being used multiple times a day for over a month....including being used to water my plants XD.

I'm coming to the Greater Goods kettle from a Cuisinart v-spout. I was on the hunt for a gooseneck to start making pourover coffee, and also to use for Aeropress and tea. I did a TON (read: an unreasonable amount) of research and ultimately was torn between this and the Fellow Stagg. I struggled with the idea of paying $200 for the Stagg, so I decided to give this one a try, and I'm thrilled!- The packaging is wonderful. Props to the brand, I really felt like I was unboxing a premium product (something I thought I'd miss out on passing over the Stagg). They put a lot of care into it.- Another review mentioned that the menu is difficult to navigate, but I thought it was very well done for something with only a single scroll wheel. A few button presses and you're on your way. And I love that the display shows the current temperature of the water inside, which I didn't realize when I purchased, so that was a nice surprise.- It's very well-made and feels sturdy, I have no concerns about its longevity whatsoever - and it's very very pretty.- Overall it's been delightful to use. It's beautifully balanced, the pour is easy to control, and it's incredibly comfortable to hold. It's a small form factor, but holds more than enough water for us - we can brew two 300g cups of coffee before needing to refill. It heats quickly, too!If it ever gives up on me, I may consider the upgrade to the Stagg, but this really does feel like a premium appliance for a fraction of the cost. The same goes for their coffee scale, which I got to accompany the kettle. Both perfect! I couldn't be happier :)

Overall, this kettle has been a game changer for making coffee. It's impeccably useful for controlling the flow rate when pouring a v60. By holding the button, you can start a timer that gives you a "3-2-1" countdown before becoming a stopwatch. It has a lot of tiny design features that puts it as a high quality budget option for a temp-controlled gooseneck kettle. Heating is relatively fast and if you can't prep your coffee bed before it finishes, the kettle has a hold mode. The aesthetic of a single dial, single button kettle holds it's own. It's minimalist, sleek, and not frustrating to use nor set up.The kettle has some downsides for me, though. For context, my kettle is set to hold for 10 minutes right now. Say, I set it to a boil at 100°C. After that, I use the fresh off the boil water to preheat a device. Then I set the kettle to go down to 93°C. The kettle will beep and say it's at 93°C, rather than show you the temperature of the water inside the kettle, which is probably still at 100°C. Visually, it sometimes won't differentiate between the goal temperature and the current temperature, even though it definitely has that capability.Another little sticking point, every time you unplug the kettle base, you have to redo the settings. It's not too hard to do, but it's still worth mentioning. Thankfully, there aren't so many settings that it would force me to keep a dedicated outlet, (Just 3, hold mode duration, toggle beep, unit F or C), but the settings menu is probably the worst part of the UI. Like, if everything else was a 9 out of 10, the settings menu is an 8 out of 10. It's simplistic and well designed, but just slightly less satisfying to use.
