Govee Smart Electric Kettle, WiFi Variable Temperature Gooseneck Pour Over Kettle and Tea Kettle, Alexa Control, 1200W Quick Heating, 100% Stainless Steel, 0.8L, Matte Black

Finally, good WiFi kettle alternative to Fellow Stagg EKG kettle!
I previously owned a Fellow Stagg EKG+ kettle. I loved the ability to turn it on using an app since I work on the 2nd floor, and my kitchen is on the 1st floor. Overall, I really liked the Stagg kettle, but my wife hated it since it has a very low flow rate out of the spout. It is good for making pour-over coffee, but it’s annoying for her when she makes tea. Our Stagg EKG+ finally died and I had to find a replacement. Stagg has a new updated kettle (EKG Pro), but it’s more expensive and has the same restricted flow rate.I looked around and it’s surprising how few WiFi enabled electric kettles exist. I finally found the Govee and I was suspicious since it is really affordable. I was used to overpaying for WiFi-enabled devices. I bought it and I couldn’t be happier – it is perfect for me and my wife who drinks tea!Pros:1. Remote on/off via WiFi and the Govee app2. Ability to schedule in advance using the app3. Decent flow rate (much faster than the Stagg EKG kettle)4. The “Hold temperature” button works even if you take the kettle off and put it back on the base. Some kettles turn off the “hold” when you take the kettle off the base. For pour-over coffee drinkers, it’s common pre-wet the filter and pre-wet the coffee grounds before doing the full pour of water. This means you’ll take the kettle off the base at least 3 times when making coffee. It’s nice to maintain the “hold” of the temperature throughout the process.5. The kettle heats water quickly6. The app is easy to use – both initial setup of the Kettle to WiFi and ongoing use is simple in the app7. The kettle is a great value – affordable with nice quality. It is definitely a much better value than the Stagg EKG kettle8. It can connect to Amazon Echo and Google devices (I don’t use this, but it’s possible)Cons:1. The app allows you to schedule heating of water in advance, but it is a one-time schedule. You can’t (yet) set up a recurring schedule (e.g., heat up water every morning at 5:45am).2. The volume of the kettle is 0.8 L which is small. It’s enough to make a single cup of coffee or tea, but just barely. You’ll have to refill each time – slow if you are making more than one cup at a time.3. The looks are just ok to me – I think the Stagg EKG kettle looks better, but this is subjective and doesn’t affect the taste of my coffee :-)In short, I recommend the Govee kettle and I’m very happy with the app and remote WiFi features!

Obsessed is as n understatement
I love that Govee is expanding their product line. I had no idea they made kettles until recently and I immediately added to my cart in time for cooler weather. I have several Govee products. I love the quality of every single one and that they are all controlled with the Govee app or my Alexa.On to the kettle review. It’s beautiful, modern, and sleek but fits in perfectly with my cozy, comfortable kitchen. I love that I can turn on the kettle while I’m still in bed so it’s ready when I go downstairs. Or with the tap of an app, on a chilly fall day, from the comfort of my recliner. There are different pre-settings depending on what heat you need (pour over coffee, oolong tea, etc), or you can customize the temperature you want. It also has a keep warm feature, which is convenient. It would be nice if this same kettle had a larger capacity. That’s literally the only thing that could make this better, in my eyes. 🖤

So good! Connected to app via WiFi seamlessly, first cup was PERFECT
I wanted to upgrade my pourover coffee game a little bit without going too crazy. I wanted a gooseneck kettle that was temperature controlled, had good ratings, had decent pre-sets (since I also drink tea and cocoas) and figured since I’m paying more for the temperature control I might as well find one that can also be controlled remotely— I was looking at another brand but was super put off by the price tag. Honestly the only thing that brand had over this gooseneck kettle is the different color scheme (I would have preferred white or pink but sometimes one has to suck it up and go with what is going to be more practical in the end.I trust Govee products. I already have the app on my phone and iPad and I’ve dealt with their customer service before (they are so helpful and patient.) I felt really comfortable buying this kettle knowing that if anything goes wrong in the future the company is here for me. The app detected this new kettle right away, connected and allowed me to control the kettle both through the kettle base and through the app. I put it through a few different boils with fresh water so there wouldn’t be any residual factory taste. My first cup was PERFECT. The temperature hold feature is amazing and I’m so happy I can start a boil before starting my commute home and have hot water ready and waiting for me.Looks nice (even though it’s not white or pink) and I love the styling of the handle and lid knob with the kettle profile. Super easy to clean. Warms up FAST. I’m so excited and feel really good about this purchase.
