The OXO Brew Cordless Glass Electric Kettle does one thing and does it well: press the on/off button, it boils, and it shuts off on its own at a rolling boil. The borosilicate-glass body lets you watch the water heat, and there is no temperature menu, no display, and nothing to misread.
What the specs tell you
1.75 liters at 1500 watts. Enough for a full pot of tea or several mugs, brought to a boil quickly; the manual confirms you touch only the handle and the on/off button.
A lit power switch, not a display. The single switch lights while heating and turns off automatically once the water reaches a rolling boil · an indicator light, not a digital readout.
Borosilicate glass with a removable spout filter. The glass resists thermal shock, the stainless filter lifts out for cleaning, and OXO’s guidance to descale about every 60 uses keeps boil times fast. A 2-year warranty backs it.
