How to choose a metal electric kettle

When choosing an electric kettle made of metal, you should follow the same criteria as when choosing any other electric kettle. This, of course, about the functional characteristics, although the appearance can also play a significant role.

Heating elements

Regardless of the design features, all network-operated kettles can be conditionally classified depending on the type of heating element used:

1. Open spiral. Water is in direct contact with the heater. The models equipped with an open spiral, differ in the low price, work in the silent mode. But at the same time, it is more difficult to clean them of scale, which, by the way, accumulates much more than in teapots with a closed heater (it can also get into the water over time). In addition, safety precautions require constantly monitor the water level in the kettle - the spiral should always be completely covered with water.
2. Closed helix. Teapots with a spiral, closed disc ("bottom"), suitable for heating even a small amount of water (near the glass). The spiral does not contact with water at all, and the device is easy to maintain, but it works quite noisy and consumes much more energy than a teapot with an open spiral.
3. Disk heater. The newest generation of electric kettles is equipped with a hidden disc heater connected to the electrical contacts. Such a device works very quietly, the water heats as fast as possible.

Power

The higher the power of the kettle, the faster the water will be heated. With increasing power, as a rule, the volume of the kettle rises, which, in turn, consumes more electricity. The optimal power for a 2-liter kettle is 2,200 watts. When choosing the appropriate power should be compared only teapots of the same volume.

Filters

In electric kettles used several varieties of replacement filters. As a rule, they are made of the finest nylon mesh. But there are also metal and gilt filters. Metal provides filters greater durability compared to nylon, and gold-plated (according to their manufacturers) retain scale.

Design

A variety of models of metal kettles on store shelves allows you to choose the best variant of the device, made not only in your favorite color scheme, but also in a certain style, shape, etc.Thus, you can choose a stylish, ergonomic design that fits perfectly into a particular interior.

Additional options

Speaking of additional options, it means extremely useful. When choosing a suitable appliance for water heating, pay attention to the presence of such functions:

1. Temperature regulator - allows you to select the optimum temperature for heating water (for example, 60 ⁰C, for tea / coffee - you need about 90⁰WITH);
2. long boiling (longer than 5 minutes) - removes chlorine from water;
3. timer - allows you to configure the kettle to heat water at a certain time;
4. signal - notifies about the end of the process of heating water;
5. maintaining water temperature on the optimal indicator - saves energy;
6. additional protection - if there is not enough water, the device will not work.
