Cuisinart Digital Gooseneck Kettle - Hearth & Hand™ with Magnolia

I have had my tea kettle for about six months and just this month bought one for a friend. It is everything all the reviews I read (and videos I watched)before buying said it would be. You can easily adjust the temperature; it heats the water quickly; it pours easily without spilling; and it is lovely to look at! If you are a big fan of all kinds of teas, as I am, you cannot go wrong with this tea kettle.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This kettle works really well and stands out, for us, for two reasons: the goose neck spout allows for a precision pour and the temperature control base. The latter heats the water to the temperature you desire and keeps it at that temperature by continuously reheating it. It also alerts you when the water initially reaches the set temperature. The temperature-setting controls are very simple and easy to use, and they work great for my wife and I: I drink coffee so desire my water to be hotter than what she wants for her tea, so whomever is making their breakfast beverage first just heats the water to the temperature they want and then resets the temperature to what the other prefers. We’re very happy with this kettle.

This tea kettle is lightweight, extremely efficient, and a joy to use. My water is prepared at the exact temperature I need in less than 2 minutes. I like the design and the convenience of this kettle.

Everything I wanted at much less than a similar item. Heats up quickly, looks great, keeps water hot if you want.

I bought this several weeks ago and am very pleased. Our old hot water kettle had a crack in the plastic window and we were afraid it would fail. Plus we are trying to reduce our exposure to plastics and this was the highest rated kettle in Wirecutter that did not contain plastic. So we went for it. It heats up the water very quickly and another thing I love is that you can set the temperature based on what you are brewing. We used to just use boiling water for everything, but I’ve discovered that using water at temperatures specific for coffee and different types of tea really does bring out the flavor. And the gooseneck allows you to control the water flow much better. It also holds your temperature for a half hour, making refills easier. My wife wishes it held a little more water than it does, but I’m very pleased with 1 liter.

I love the display with the current and tareget temperatures. The temperature is easy to set. The large mouth makes it easy to add water. Pours very well. The on switch takes a few seconds to function. Sometimes it gets in a situation where you think you have poured your tea and turned the device off, but it doesn't know it and it shows a funny error because the kettle is empty but it wants to heat. Power cyclinng does not help. you have to add water, water for the error to clear then pour the warer out. I quickly learned how to avoid this - make sure the "thermomete" icon beside the power is turned off and then power down.

I bought the Cuisinart electric Gooseneck Kettle a month ago and I have used it multiple times everyday since I bought it. I love it. It's functionality is perfect. It looks great. It has all the bells and whistles you need, and it is a reasonable price.

Love this kettle! So easy to use and the temperature controls ensure the perfect temp for my coffee or tea. Love that it stays warm for 30 minutes too. Only regret is I didn’t buy it sooner.

Pretty perfect. Don't like the steam valve on the lid - even though it has arrows to line up, I often forget. Have to hold the on button down for some time to get it going - helpful for safety I suppose but not needed in our household. Dislike that the button is lit red 24/7. Looks nice on the counter. Easy to use for pour overs and other detailed pours. I appreciate the temperature options being preset and the guide on what to use for coffee and different teas. Replaced a Brewista I loved that went belly up after a year and was outside the warranty period.

Wonderful kettle. This works incredibly well, heats up fast, and holds the temperature. If you use up all the water, make sure to not place the kettle back on the stand. This took some getting used to, but not a big deal. The safety feature kicks in and it beeps and shows Error on the unit. Not a big deal, just wish there was a way to prevent without waiting on the base to “time out” before placing the kettle back on it. This is minor though. The actual functionality and usability are a 5/5

Great addition to my coffee routine. Perfect for pour over. I love the temp control and ability to keep temperature.

This gooseneck kettle is fast boiling, well made, and good looking. I use it every day and it boils water noticeably faster than my previous kettle. This comes with a single downside: the water makes many loud sounds that are like small explosions. While this is not a problem it is something to be aware of if you are intending to use this in a noise sensitive place. The high wattage and fast boiling means that some of the larger pockets of steam collapse to create these very loud popping sounds (not like a rolling boil, discrete and explosive). The construction and packaging are high quality. The base is sturdy and doesn’t slide around with normal use. The handle is comfortable and there is a small vent in the lid to direct the steam away from your hands when you align the arrows on the lid (a very nice little feature). The construction feels sturdy while being fairly lightweight. The buttons are responsive and I haven’t accidentally pressed one yet. You do have to hold the power button down to turn it on while just a tap will turn it off, again, a nice little detail. The aesthetics of the kettle are nice. It is understated, in a nice matte black finish. The base is functional while not being ugly. It blends into a modern set of kitchen tools without causing visitors to wonder what it is (unlike some coffee grinders). In general, it leans masculine, modern, industrial, and minimal in the visual design but it isn’t an eye sore. I really enjoy this kettle and I won’t have any issues using it until either I break it or it gives out. There are two things I would offer as a way to take this from a 4 to a 5 for the next generation of the GK1 (maybe GK2?). The first is a more apparent max fill line. I am regularly using my kettle in the dark mornings and it can be hard to see the max fill line on the inside of the kettle. It there was a small bit of material that I could use as a gauge it would help in low light uses. The second is the ability to convert the temperature reading to Celsius. I know this is not a feature that most Americans would ask for but I was very surprised to find out I could only use Fahrenheit (maybe this has to do with the 5 degree granularity but I am unsure). I would recommend this kettle to most people for pour over coffee and other electric kettle needs.

The ability to set a specific temperature is great, and I love the gooseneck for making pour over coffee. I wish the kettle didn't beep so loud - that seems unnecessary. Overall, we like this kettle.

love it! It's so practical & looks great in our kitchen

One of my favorite purchases I’ve made from Target. It is beautiful and would make a great gift. I brought this to work and make tea/hot chocolate for myself & students daily. The water heats up quickly. My two tips to other purchasers would be to be sure the arrows are aligned on the handle & kettle lid or water will drip out. Also, be mindful of how much water you may lose to steam. I have definitely underestimated the latter.

Absolutely love this kettle. Water boils quickly, has all the necessary features, and looks sleek. I like that I can pour accurately and comfortably thanks to the chunky handle. One downside is that the beeps are too loud and can be annoying, but not a dealbreaker at such a reasonable price.

Great kettle-a nice design on the countertop, easy-to-use interface. The kettle heats up relatively quickly, though I do find that the kettle does not shut off on it's own after it reaches temperature, but continues to reheat. If I go to boil water and then walk away, it will essentially keep boiling forever. Perhaps there is a way to override this, but it might be my only criticism.

I use it every single time I make my matcha at home. The color is beautiful too.

I purchased this gooseneck to replace a lower priced gooseneck I purchased when I first started making pour over coffee. I wanted to upgrade and read numerous reviews indicating this gooseneck was as good as the higher priced Fellow Stagg. It has been great so far! You can adjust the temp and it also keeps the water at that temp for as long as you want. I would recommend this kettle!

Nice looking, works perfectly, price is right . With a good grinder, scale, and this kettle my coffee game has improved!
