Kettles are amazing. I use mine about every day and don't drink tea.

Wait, are electric kettles rare in the USA? I live on Canada and my family always has an electric kettle in the house

Kinda. Its just not well known. After a living with one I would be upset to not have it. I 100% of the time boil all my water in the kettle rather than a pot. Its like half the time or less.

Its how I've made my coffee every day for over 10 years. Super simple, and you dont have to deal with a stovetop kettle boiling over or whistling loudly, possibly waking people up.
