Ultrathin Upgraded Food Grade Silicone Travel Foldable Electric Kettle Boil Dry Protection Portable with Dual Voltage and Separable Power Cord,555ML 110-220V US Plug

I work for the airlines and also vacation travel a lot. I carry a small pump-style portable espresso maker for work and when we travel since it’s our preferred caffeine medium. Some places don’t have hot water available in the hotel rooms (no tea kettles or just grungy coffee makers) so this is good for that. It would be overkill for just two espressos but we also travel with a couple of vegan backpacker meals on vacation since my wife is allergic to dairy and doesn’t eat meat and it isn’t always easy to find her a decent meal on short notice. She also has some blood sugar / hangry issues so it just makes sense to have a backup plan for her. This is great for those since they require more boiling water. It packs nice and flat with a nice case. It’s a little heavy but for me it’s worth carrying with me. The handle works pretty well and it’s comfortable to pour. The silicone is sturdy enough that it doesn’t feel like it’s going to collapse at any moment and having the option to use other voltages is really nice in other places in the world. It also boils pretty fast

Perfect for travel Compact , easy to use Travel bag a bit big

I can't figure out what the bad reviews are about...this thing is great! I tested it out right away. I did not notice any kind of odor coming from the silicone. I did not notice any kind of film on the water after it cooled off. The handle was very easy to put on and take off. The water heated to a boil in about 3.5 minutes (I'm at sea level.) I had no problem at all with water sputtering out of the pot when the water boiled, because I'm smart enough to realize you have to have the lid turned to the "closed" position. Then, water poured easily and cleanly out of the spout after I lined up the little arrows so the lid is in the "open" position. (It's not rocket science, people!) I like how it shuts off once the water comes to a boil, but then will turn back on to keep the water hot. I make two cups of coffee in a single-serve French press, so this will be perfect for me! You just have to remember, if that isn't want you want, to turn it off after you pour your water out. Again, not rocket science. The case which came with mine is the one pictured in the ad, and the cord fits in there perfectly fine if sort of coiled and put into the mesh in the top of the case. Great case! I'll be bringing this with me on my next trip and it will be so nice not to have to deal with gross hotel room coffee pots and sub-par hotel coffee! Hooray!

Great kettle but I missed that it offered Dual Voltage 110 V/220 V and used it to warm milk while in Europe. Instantly burnt the bottom of it because it was on the wrong setting. I couldn't get the burnt milk washed out, so ended up eventually throwing out the kettle. However it burnt at the beginning of the trip, and since I had no other way to get hot water for my morning coffee and nightly tea I kept using it with the burnt area and it worked well. I only deducted a star because you have to stand over the kettle to ensure it doesn't boil over. Pretty much as soon as the water starts boiling it bubbles up to the top. But I'll be buying another to replace the burnt one.

I got this kettle for work since I'm not always working in the same building and we didn't have a kettle at work. This little pot collapses and comes with a nice hard case for storage including the cord. It's pretty easy to set up and take down although the cord is a bit short. I have also found that the cord is difficult to remove from the pot. This is good because it won't accidentally become dislodged but is also a pain because in order to pour from the pot, I have to either unplug it or hope that I have enough cord to keep it plugged in and pour at the same time. It does have a sensor so if the temperature drops below a certain point, it will automatically start heating again. It says that it can heat milk as well but it burns VERY quickly so I stay away from milk from now on. It's fairly easy to clean since it's silicone so it stretches to accommodate your hand. It does have an odd smell to it like many of the reviews mention. I cleaned it thoroughly several times, cooked in it several times, and it still held the smell. I think my tea had an odd taste for a bit when I first started using it but it quickly went away. I love this little kettle although I might get a regular one that separates from the heating element next time, simply for the convenience. This does pack small enough for me and I will keep using it until it breaks though.

This little kettle works very well, quickly! Check for the boil in about 2 minutes.

I purchased this because I am an avid coffee drinker and I was going to be traveling to Europe and wanted to ensure I had my morning coffee available each day without having to go out each morning to get one. I used my Bodum French Press mug, ground coffee, and heated up water in this kettle every morning for the two weeks we were in Europe and it was perfect! Didn't take long to heat up water at all and it gets HOT. There is no adjustable temp on this like you would see with a typical electric kettle, but that wasn't something I needed. The only issue I have with the kettle is that it's very difficult to see the fill line on silicone. If it were in a different color than the color of the kettle it would be easier. Very easy to clean and one of the best things is that it's super easy to take apart and put back together and it fits easily in it's hardshell carrying case. My husband was also able to use it for water for his tea. Although I don't use it except for traveling (I use it for any travel I do now, not just to Europe), it is totally worth it and I would highly recommend!

The good: The conceptual design of this kettle is brilliant. I absolutely love how small it is when collapsed. The large, well-weighted base and narrow top also make it super sturdy, which is great when preparing stuff in a crowded camper with two kids crawling all over. The bad: It makes scalding hot water (obviously), but WILL LITERALLY SCALD YOU sooner or later. There are a couple of issues with the actual design of the kettle: 1) When you tip it to pour the water, the steam from inside invariably hits your hand that is holding the handle, leading to a painful reminder of just how hot the water is inside. This seems to be due to the fact that the lid does not seal well, even when it is put in the right direction, and it pretty much happens every time. 2) It is all too easy to put the lid on backward, which will cause the spout-end of the kettle to be sealed off. When trying to our, this causes your unsuspecting loved one to tilt the kettle over further than necessary, which causes more water pressure against the lid, which in turn causes the lid to fall off. With the obstruction out of the way, screams of horror ensue as the hot water pours on the aforementioned loved one's hand holding the Aeropress. This has happened to both of us, but the second time left my wife's hand painfully red for days. NOT FUN NOR SAFE. The lid should be keyed against the top rim of the kettle to prevent it from falling out or should be attached in a more permanent fashion to prevent it from being put on backward. No, that stupid little arrow on the lid is not enough. My previous collapsible kettle (useful TP147) never had this problem, I never once burned myself with it. Unfortunately, that one hit the ground one too many times, so I replaced it with this more compact model. Had I known that this one will lead to pain and suffering (well, yeah, literally), I would have never bought it. So this is likely going in the trash, as I cannot even give it away with a clear conscience.
