The Breville Ikon Stainless-Steel Electric Kettle ($70) is the perfect solution for quickly boiling water at your home or office for tea, coffee, instant soups and more. Unlike most cheap plastic electric water kettles, this one is made from premium brushed stainless steel and boils up to 1.8 quarts of water using a 1500-watt concealed element. It has a blue backlight LED-illuminated water gauge, removable scale filter that treats hard water, cool-touch handle, multi-directional base with cord storage, numerous safety features and much more.
