What Cosori Electric Gooseneck Kettle owners say

“The COSORI has been awesome so far - it has 5 selectable temps, a hold option which is nice if you're preheating a vessel for espresso or something, and it overall just feels like a quality product that was well-built. Would definitely recommend :)”

“It adds a special touch to the kitchen and works flawlessly, of course.”
— Organization-Silky79 on Reddit
“I hated the Cosori. It would sputter out of the spout and splatter my grinds everywhere in my pour over (V60). Then the handle came loose after a few months.”

What Fellow Stagg EKG owners say

“I got my Fellow Stagg EKG used at a discount from a coworker. But now that I'm accustomed to the convenience, I probably would still pay full price for it now if I had to replace it.”
— magus-21 on Reddit
“I recently made the switch to an electric kettle myself and it is so worth it imo, especially for how fast it heats up and being able to set a specific temperature. The one I have (Fellow Stagg EKG) you can even hold the set temperature for up to an hour”
— magicalmarshmallows on Reddit
“Fellow Stagg EKG Kettle: I mean, it looks nice, sure. But my first one had a defective base that required email after email after email to convince the company to activate my warranty. Just get the Bonavita. It does the same thing and is often on sale.”
