STAGG EKG ELECTRIC KETTLE: Simple aesthetic meets powerful design. A gooseneck kettle that pours as good as it looks. It’s made from quality 304 stainless steel with a minimalist base to save space and a 0.9-liter capacity.
PRECISION POUR: Stagg EKG's sleek pointed spout is designed for a powerful but precise stream for the optimal pour-over flow rate, and the counterbalanced handle provides a sturdy grip encouraging a slower pour.
TEMPERATURE MATTERS: Speed up your brewing process with Stagg EKG and its 1200-watt quick-heating element for boiling water. The to-the-degree temperature control makes perfecting your manual cup of coffee or steeped tea seamless and precise.
BREW LIKE A PRO: A sleek LCD screen indicates the desired Set Temp and Real-Time Temp for your drip coffee or tea. Use the built-in Brew Stopwatch to time your extraction and engage the toggle to keep your water hot for up to 60 minutes.
PREMIUM MATERIALS: Stagg EKG is built to last with a 304 stainless steel kettle body and lid, a plastic base, and food-grade silicone. The Polished Copper kettle is PVD copper coated. The optional wooden accent includes walnut.
WARRANTY: Stagg EKG comes with a 1-year limited warranty plus an additional year if you register your product at register.fellowproducts.com (US only and registration is free).
CARE FOR PRODUCT: On a regular basis, remove any mineral deposits which will develop as stains on the bottom of the kettle. This process is natural and expected for all electric water kettles. Stagg EKG is not dishwasher safe.

Title: Go directly to the source for this one
Review: The Stagg EKG Kettle: a story in three parts.1. I ordered the kettle from Amazon. It was ludicrously spendy for me, but so beautiful. Nothing else on the market comes close. And given the repeated heat waves in the Northeast this summer, I wanted a kettle that could heat my water for coffee without adding heat to the house. When it finally arrived, I unpacked it, ooohed and aahhed at the beauty, added water, plugged it in and.... nothing. No LCD, no heating, simply.. nothing. Sighing heavily, I assumed it was an anomaly and sent it back. I ordered a replacement version that same day.2. Take two: a few days later, the second Stagg kettle arrives from Amazon. Unpack, plug it in.... aaaaand nothing. Double check the plug, move it to different outlets, reset said outlets - finally, for reasons unbeknownst to me, the LCD lights up with "Fellows." But nothing further. (I've now hit the "on" button about a zillion times). So, in frustration I tweet, Facebook IM and send a message the Fellows Support folks on their website.The Fellows customer service rep got back to me within the hour, ***from his vacation*** to help me out. Said that definitely shouldn't be happening and said, "Please let me send you one directly from our warehouse." Asked for the Amazon order numbers, as he thought perhaps there is something in Amazon's handling that is affecting performance of the kettle.In the meantime, I've gotten Kettle #2 to actually heat water to the boiling point once (on the 100th try or so), so I message the CSR back and say "Maybe it's working?" Next attempt? The LCD said "no water" and refused to do anything. Back it goes. I returned to the CSR and requested a kettle direct from Fellows: I was happy to pay for a replacement kettle, but he insisted on sending it free of charge to compensate for my hassle.3. EUREKA! The third-time's-a-charm kettle arrived about 3 weeks ago. It has worked like a charm ever since the first minute. Heats like a dream, quickly, efficiently. Holds the temperature accurately to about 1 degree. Pours easily, smoothly and effortlessly. My husband (who initially scoffed at the price) is increasingly enamored of this kettle, and says frequently (sheepishly) how much he loves it. It is everything all of the 5-star reviews say and more.So, finally although I've had very good luck with Amazon over the years, my advice to you on this one is: go directly to the source. You won't regret it. And a very huge shoutout to Fellows support for A++ customer service!

Title: The gooseneck spout may look delicate, but it's sturdier than it seems!
Review: The Fellow Stagg EKG Electric Gooseneck Kettle has been my trusty companion for five years now, and it's still going strong. This electric kettle is sleek, stylish, and all about simplicity. The gooseneck spout may look delicate, but don't let that fool youâit's sturdier than it seems.One of the best features is the easy-to-use temperature knob that lets you switch between Fahrenheit and Celsius, and itâs impressively quiet, even when boiling water in just four minutes. Whether you're into drip coffee or tea, this kettle's smooth, controlled pour makes it a breeze to use.However, Iâve noticed a little rust starting to form around the lid, which is something to watch out for. It would also be great if the cord could be coiled under the base for easier storage, but I get that keeping the base slim probably took priority.If you're primarily using it for coffee, it's hard to beat. For other uses, like filling up a big mug or pot, you might want something with a wider spout. But for five years, this kettle has delivered consistently and still looks as good as new on my countertop.

Title: stylish, heats fast
Review: This is the second one of these I purchased because the first one only lasted about 2 years. However, I did give it 5 stars as it works well and being a tea drinker I like the fact you can set the temperatures a variety of degrees. The design does take time to get used to since you are pouring very slowly.

Title: Happy gaiwan style tea drinker
Review: I'm a tea drinker who is getting into gaiwan style brewing. I switched to this kettle from a stovetop kettle and am very pleased. The two things I like the most are the temperature control and the temperature hold feature. The kettle feels very solid, and the handle is surprisingly nice in my hand. The pour is really good, but is much slower than my ancient stovetop kettle, and I haven't got used to that after a week. I accidentally tip it too far over, trying to get water out faster. The base doesn't move around at all on my kitchen counter and it's easy to lift the kettle off and replace it without fumbling. Setting the temperature is dead simple and the entire thing is well thought out. It's a lot of money to heat water, but I'm happy I spent it. My inexpensive teas are so much better at the correct temperature - I thought for sure that was a tea snob thing. But the difference is striking. So much so that I'm now encouraged to buy some expensive tea now that I can brew it at the correct temperature.

Review: Yes, it looks great on the countertop, so elegant that you won't want to put it away. (I wouldn't anyway, because I don't think it would stand up to much abuse.) It features 4-cup capacity, to the degree temperature control, a built-in stopwatch, and perfect flow for pour over coffee. And you had better love coffee, because that's all you'll use it for. The cost is significantly higher than others that do the same thing, but that's the price of being a coffee snob.
