GoveeLife Smart Electric Kettle with Tea Infuser, 1.7 L Electric Kettle with Brewing Program, Variable Temperature Control, 2 H Keep Warm & Auto Shut off, BPA Free, Silver

Brilliant kettle.only if it had a uk plug . I had to buy a tranformer for it . Don't know why govee doesn't sell this kettle in uk

I ordered this for my mom because she loves instant coffee (like the instant folgers coffee. Its bonkers to me) and heats up her water via her very fancy Keurig (now you see why its bonkers) or in the microwave (yes, ive explained to her in detail the perils of super heated water). So to, mostly save my sanity, I gifted her this for Christmas and she actually loves it! Her favorite thing is that she can have it heating up while she gets ready for work and it takes up a lot less space on her counters. It looks sleek and nice and works great. I genuinely am content with what I got for her so much that Im tempted to replace my old school tea kettle.

If you drink tea, you need an electric kettle! If I remember to put water in the night before, I can tell my bedroom Alexa to heat up the water even before I come down. Or, if I did get up at the same time every day, I could set it to be hot and ready. I also love that it stays warm for up to 30 minutes, so I can make a fresh cup of tea for my husband when I hear him rattling around upstairs. Great quality and performance for the money. The water boils very quickly, the kettle feels very high-quality. We have not used the tea infuser. We also have not used the different temperatures, we always boil to 212, but if you are a white or green tea lover, you may appreciate this feature!

Pros: One of the few kettles that have native smart home integration. Being able to start the kettle from the other room is fantastic. Cons: Govee uses different naming schema and preset naming between this kettle and their other smart gooseneck kettle which makes using both kind of annoying. Sometimes alexa will just give an error when attempting to give a verbal command such as "Alexa set [kettle name] to 212 degrees" yet issuing the command "Alexa turn [kettle name] on" then waiting for her to prompt you for the temperature will work. Also the fact that the unit can't be told to "boil" but must be told to be set to "212 degrees" is a touch annoying. On the brink of being great but just needs a touch more QA and UI development.

After 6 months of ownership, I’m beyond frustrated by this kettle. There are three issues that makes this a no go. This isn’t a “smart” kettle. It’s a dumb kettle with dumb app, dumb design and dumb support. Cleaning sucks. It’s hard to use. 1) The instructions say to only leave it completely dry to avoid build up. However, due to construction, you cannot physically empty the kettle completely. There will always be water left at the bottom. Unless you use two paper towels to dry it, you quickly get hard water buildup which causes it to boil much slower. Washing soap out is a pain since suds catch on the lip. 2) the lid is a terrible design. If you pour too fast, the lid pops out. The lid easily and frequently brakes into pieces that requires fiddling to reconstruct. 3) you cannot remotely turn the machine on. I wanted hot water in the morning when my alarm went off, but I cannot set it to boil on a schedule. Govee said this was a safety choice, but the kettle auto turns off if there is no water in it. 4) I bought this thinking there was glass and stainless steel. The temperature probe is glued in. The lids have multiple types of plastics and rubbers. 5) the temperature isn’t very accurate. I’ll frequently see +/- 3° F from the stated temp. This isn’t a big deal to me, but is important for those who are buying it for strict temp controls.

**Product Review: GoveeLife Smart Electric Kettle with Tea Infuser** I absolutely love the GoveeLife Smart Electric Kettle with Tea Infuser! It has completely elevated my tea-making experience with its smart features and sleek design. The standout feature for me is the app integration. The GoveeLife app is incredibly user-friendly and allows me to control the kettle remotely, adjust the temperature, and even set custom brewing programs for different types of tea. This level of convenience is a game-changer, especially when I want my tea ready as soon as I get up in the morning or while multitasking. The tea infuser is another highlight—it’s well-designed and ensures the perfect brew every time. I also appreciate how easy it is to clean, making the entire process hassle-free. The kettle heats quickly, and the temperature control is precise, ensuring that my tea is brewed at the optimal temperature for maximum flavor. In addition to its functionality, the modern design looks great on my countertop. Overall, this is a fantastic product that I highly recommend to tea enthusiasts or anyone who loves the convenience of smart home gadgets!
