| I just replaced my Bodum plastic electric kettle for a non-plastic Haden one. BUT, it seems to have a plastic filter in the spout that cannot be removed. Assume I should return if I am looking for an non plastic one (since heating plastic seems to be the real culprit.) Any recs on fully non plastic ones? |
| The ones I found all have some plastic somewhere in them even though the body of the kettle isn’t plastic. |

I’ve had this one for 7+ months and been happy. It’s cheap enough to replace if it does break. No plastic in the spout and the outside stays cool.

| If the plastic is really important to you, maybe just use a stovetop pot? |

We have the Saki Luna and I love it more than I’ve ever loved a kettle. No plastic touching the water.

| why not use a stove top tea kettle? |
If the plastic never touches the water it shouldn't be a problem. |
OP: the water does touch the plastic filter.... |
Can you just remove the filter? I have a stainless kitchenaid one that's removable. |
+1. I have had this one for a year and no issues. |
| We have a cast iron tea kettle from Staub. |
| Stagg EKG kettle. Not cheap but no plastic and totally worth it |

I have the clear Cosori one posted here - purchased on a rec from here I'm fairly sure! The first one lasted until right right around the end of warranty date, and they replaced it. The replacement lasted a few weeks - I think the issue is the connection of the heating element. But I like it when it's working. I would get the extra warranty maybe.
A friend gave us a gooseneck one, probably a copy of the Stagg one, and it has been great! It's like a random xyz name from amazon. All metal and has specific temp heating selection. |
