I love my OXO kettle! I was going to buy a Bona Vita one, but my wife happened to see the OXO one on sale for the same price. This was before there were any reviews of it, but I've always been a huge fan of OXO's design language and commitment to comfort and accessibility, so we got it. Fantastic product.
I use the oxo kettle for pour over, and one of my favorite things about it is the built in timer. Once the kettle reaches temp, just hold down the button for a second and a count up timer starts.
I've owned the OXO for freaking YEARS and didn't know this! You made my life just a little bit better every day from here on out, thank you!
Upgraded to an oxo from the bonavita. This video confirmed my choice and saved me buying the ekg.
The Bonavita actually has a built in timer as well, just press the + button. Unfortunately, the timer resets when you return the kettle back to the base if you are trying to maintain water temp.
The Brewista also resets the timer when you return the kettle to the base
I think you're referring to a different thing here, both kettles have time counter on the press of the plus button; the brewista one also has a "timer function", where you set it in advance have the water heat up at, say, 8:30 AM - which afaik the bonavita doesn't do.
I have the OXO kettle and it is Fantastic.
*OwO*
The Bonavita has a hold button too. I use it everyday, works great.
This is great. I need to replace my Bonavita. So thanks. I've used it daily for 3 years, maybe 4. The Kettle is no longer heating to the temperature as programmed. The display might read 208 or 209 but I set it to 205. Sometimes, it may fluctuate right this morning where the display showed 179 - 209 and went back and forth. I checked the temp with a thermometer against what the display shows, and there was great inconsistency. While it's on sale at a good price, I am reluctant to buy the same item.
Nancy Lamb mine does the same
No mention of how accurate the temperature settings are. Heard these kettles can be off by a lot from actual temperature.
I had a cheap-ish one, it had very crude control circuit - just cuts off power when it reaches set temperature. The problem is that the heating element has some thermal inertia and continues heating water for some time after the power has been cut off. To hide this, the digital display was programmed not to show temperature higher than what was set by the user. For the user it looks like the kettle maintains the temperature super accurately, while in reality it overshoots. How large is the error depends how much water is in the kettle, could be off by more than 10 deg.
The Stagg kettle has much more advanced PID controller - basically it gradually tapers off power as the temperature approaches the set temperature, which minimizes overshooting.
I love my bonavita kettle. Use it every day.
Not sure about the others, but the Brewista and the Fellow Stagg are not fully stainless steel. They have a silicone ring on the bottom where the temperature sensor is.
The silicone in the Fellow kettle is "food-grade" according to Fellow. Regardless, silicone is fine up to like 500F and it's also very inert which is why it's used even in medical applications.
The Bonavita plastic handle intrudes into the boiling space unfortunately
My understanding is the EKG is at 0.9L, not 1.0L. Is that sufficient to pre-wet the filter and make an 800mL carafe of coffee? What about bubbling or spurting water when near/at boil when filled to capacity?
Watched your vids for a long time and enjoyed every one of them. What on earth is that gadget on the shelf ? Looks like a time machine. .
I've the OXO one for over a year, it's amazing.
Bought the stag one because nothing is too expensive for my beautiful coffee set up. It just looks sooooo nice!
After using these kettles and examining their flow rate and ergonomics, the Stagg is the way to go for me. Not to mention it looks so great! I love the sleek design and the simplicity of the base. A huge selling point for me is what it looks like on my kitchen counter, and I think the Stagg will glow in its beauty on any kitchen counter you place it on. It is a new product, but I'm excited to see how it holds up and how it contributes to my coffee endeavors.
Have you ever burnt your hand on the Stagg?
Loving Nana I have the stagg and I think you would have to be trying to burn yourself in order for it to happen; it is excellent in every way.
Thank you for this video. You assisted me to make a purchase I understand and am happy with. Keep up the good work.
Thanks so much for this video! I was going to get the bonavita but I think I'll get the OXO instead.
Josh, we just bought the BonaVita this week. It is not slow as you said. You claimed it took 7 minutes to temp. I went back and timed the kettle to take a liter of tap water to 207 degrees, my target. It took 4 minutes and 53 seconds! You might want to re-do the test.
If you look at Amazon's customer reviews, the problem with this kettle is leakage.
We have had 2 Bona Vita pour over kettles and 1 larger Bona Vita kettle and all of them ended up leaking water.
I've had the Bonavita for almost 6 years and have never had a leakage issue however, the kettle does often throw an error when near boiling
I have the Fellow and the Bonavita. They both take exactly same amount of time to heat(I bought the Fellow because I wanted a faster heat time). FYI I refill my Fellow after my pour, turn it off, and place it back. Unreliable. 5/10 times it still starts to heat up the new water and I have to run back and turn of off a second time.
Did you check the accuracy of the temperature by any chance?
I must admit I have some trust issues cause I had a disappointing experience with a high end boiler some years back ...
Thanks for letting me know ;)
Same, Chefman kettles deceive you by only showing the set temperature, while the actual temperature (read with a handheld thermometer) keeps climbing way above the set limit.
I did. After weeks of frustration, I finally put an instant thermometer in the water.
SO the thermostat in the kettle was wrong and the LCD was not displaying the actual water temperature either.
I'm not saying it's a bad kettle. I just expected it to last a few years longer than it did.
Bought the Capresso and love it.
got a black OXO, love it!
I have done many days of research, get the oxo
In the UK we have kettles way over 1500 watts, my main kettle is 3KW, Seems strange that the U.s struggles with 1500 watts :) I do love the look of the Fellow Stagg EKG even if it is not available in the U.K.
I was thinking the same 4 minutes for a kettle to heat a litre of water isn't stupid fast I'm sure my kettle would do that in about 2
Because Americans are dealing 110V AC while you Brits are looking at 220-240V AC.
For an American appliance to be able to output the same wattage, it need to double the current (amps) going through the wires and circuits. Heating up of the wires due to resistance go up with resistance and currents, not voltage, meaning an American kettle trying to output 3kW will have twice as much the current running through its wires and four times as much wasted heat coming off its circuits and wires comparing to a British kettle on a British grid.
3kW? Do you have a 3 wire connection or what ever its called in English or a huge fuze?
Brits can afford to waste a ton of energy like that. There are 0.01% the population and land size. It takes me longer to drive to Vegas from San Bernardino than it does to traverse all of England...on a bike.
XD
Phillip Arpin: higher wattage does not mean more wasted energy. Higher wattage in a kettle simply means you can boil the same volume of water faster. The energy need to go somewhere and it's usually the water.
And as I said: British grid is 220-240V, meaning a 3kW kettle is generating the same wasted heat from its circuits as a 1.5kW kettle on an American 120V grid.
6 min: a little bit slower
7 min: took a looooooooooooong time
Jackson Carlo Ollero may be he thinks 1 minute, it's like 1 years according to the flash.
Jackson Carlo Ollero 😂
Compared to Oxo's 4 mins, Bonavita's 7 mins is indeed loooooooooooong time.
They are actually quite convenient for brewing tea, too. Black tea requires 90 celcius whereas green tea is better off under 85 so... I wish those kettles' upper parts would be suitable for an extra tea brewing container.
A switch with two states can hardly be described as “analog”. 😂
I would pay 150-300 dollars if one of these companies could make an all borosilicate glass version of one of these.
Glass is wonderful, especially for coffee after brewing.
You guys need to restock the OXO 😧 I've been waiting weeks to order one!
I see bonavita kettles in the most coffee making or related videos on youtube. So I assumed it is a good kettle.
I had mine for 5 years and the neck started leaking at the base
Never had the Brewista on my radar. Might worth a look though.
Make a playlist on different types of coffee beans, aka the best brands
Fellow just looks sooooo pretty!!!
I think the stag capacity is 900ml. That's a big difference if two people want a full 12+ oz cup of coffee.
I would love to have a temperature controlled kettle with a ceramic interior. (Including the spout)
Bonus if it oxygenates or vortexs the water as it boils
Bonavita has a hold feature as well
Thanks for comparing all of them!
Very informative video.
A note for Europeans and other countries with 220V: 1500W is not too much, even oldschool 10A fuses will carry 2200W
Hario?
I wish you included the priced for all of them
watching this is 2021 and wondering if there has been revisions. Does this list still stack up to all the competitors? Seems like Cosori is really liked but so hard to tell if these reviews are legit or not.
not a single word about plastic and silicone exposure?
1L in the EKG? Can't find this model.
the EKG is worth the money as it comes with a mini game
I live in Europe and my cheap normal kettle is 2400W. Just feeling the fancy gooseneck kettles are all too slow...
Yeah living in the UK and hearing 6 min to heat water is "fast" is really irking me
Brewista for life bruh
Thx for a great review...
but what about the hario Buono kettle?? :(
Should I buy any of these if I don’t drink coffee and rarely drink tea? Like twice a year I’ll drink tea. I just want a good hot water electric kettle.
Absolutely not worth it then
If you just need some sort of hot water occasionally, these are major overkill. Get any cheap electric kettle from a reliable brand.
Gooseneck kettles aren't even all that good for tea, the flow rate is too low. [Unless my tea expert told me wrong, I'm not much of a tea drinker.]
What these kettles are good for is pour over filter coffee for coffee geeks. We want precise and accurate temperature control, a slow flow rate, and don't need large capacity.
@@lizcademy4809 Thanks for the detailed explanation!
are these actually accurate?
i have a kitchenaid (not a goose neck) when i set it to 90C or even sometimes 80C it still boils the water. it shouldn't boil until 100
Not sure about the OXO, but the rest are accurate and don't over shoot the temp
Is the entire water boiling or is the water at the bottom of the kettle flash boiling? The latter is expected with how the kettle works. If all of the water is at a rolling boil, then there is something wrong with your kettle.
Does the three non-fellow have plastic and/or silicone inside the kettle?
I have the EKG Stagg and I hate it the pour speed.
My 10yr old plastic Tefal kettle puls 2400W... It boils in a minute.
Useful!
1500w = high wattage ?!?, that's crazy talk if you live in the UK are kettles are 3000w. We don't wait around for our tea , looking around 43 seconds to boil a cup of water
You guys also have double the voltage. At 110v, 3000w would pull 27 Amps... that's insane
@@MattM-24 Exactly right. In the USA, most house circuits pull 10 amps, 15 in the kitchen (assuming it's wired correctly). A 1500 watt appliance is about the max our poor wiring can deal with.
I use the extra 2 minutes to clean the kitchen.
What's missing from this review is a few kettles from Chinese Long Tail Brands
I have the AKG. You didn't mention the timer or the Secret function!
what is the secret?
@@fredgumminger6762 it's an Easter egg, so don't read if you don't want to be spoiled.
If you switch back and forth between celcius and Fahrenheit a couple of times, a little snake game pops up on the screen.
UK kettles heat water in 2-3 mins.

I smell metal in the water. How can I get rid of this smell?
I have a stainless steel kettle from Kalita - made in Japan and no plastic parts anywhere - that I just put on my stove. I'm not sure why an electric kettle is necessary for most home users.
It allows for coffee to be made out of the kitchen. In this case they use it for their showroom. Some college dorms don't allow open heating elements.
You can control the exact temp it reaches and holds. Stoves will go to boiling which can be too hot
Rachel, we were going on the college tour with our daughter, so we wanted to make good coffee in our hotel rooms. We needed one with an electric base.
Could you use these to heat up cold brew?
Yes. As long as you don't turn it on.
I just checked my 10 pound kettle takes 2 min and 40 sec to boil a litter of water. faster than all of your fancy pancy kettle
1.5kW is a lot? Americans! That's just where it begins to be interesting. Greetings from the superpower of Germany.
That's only because your kettles have to be able to drive on the Autobahn. No need for that here!
Hooray for your archaic 110 Volt electricity network...
Do people really need those fancy kettles? There are a ton of cheap gooseneck kettles out there from $10-$80. I don't quite get it why would people spend more than 100 bucks for a kettle? Does it make your coffee taste better?
Yes. Temperature and waterflow rate is VERY important.
ohai Josh. 😍
Have laser kettles been invented yet???
Small industrial laser inside the kettle bounces a laser through the water off mirrors inside the kettle... Laser can be fine tuned for exact intensity based on amount of water in kettle... Boils in seconds...
I have wrote to you 3 times ??? and not received any answers ?????
Soooooo many things in the world I know we don't need and here are 4 of them.
Focalplane the world needs coffee to function 😹
So why are you watching reviews on items YOU don’t need? You know what WE don’t need? Your stupid comment.
I think I know who disliked this video.
Todoroki:
*scared noises*
Lmao coffee people are hilarious. THIS THING TOOK FOREVER TO HEAT UP!!
Nearly 7 mins
This is pointless unfair fight, Fellow EKG is by far the best, not comparable
no
Yeah… no…
Omg you poor americans, I was annoyed by the speed of my 3000w british kettle....
bro imagine spending 150$ on a friggin kettle
