REDMOND SkyKettle M173S-E

Rating: 4.8

The heir to the SkyKettle M171S is the runner-up in our current ranking.

For example, the maximum power was cut to 2200 W without reducing the heating speed component.

And, at the same time, display it all on your smartphone screen in real time!

Xiaomi Mijia M

tifunctional Electric Cooker

Rating: 4.7

E.Zicom Aromatea – a really cool new generation gadget made especially for fans of tea drinking and tea ceremonies. Despite the low power consumption (the power of the model is only 1000 watts), it heats up to 1.7 liters of water quickly enough, allowing you to maintain the temperature for 30-40 minutes. This is due to the combination of glass and metal in the construction of the body.

A special addition from the category of accessories is the presence of a teapot with baskets for classic tea and Aromatik tea, as well as a spoon. Thanks to the stepped thermostat E.Zicom Aromatea provides water heating up to 37-100 degrees Celsius, with the ability to continuously adjust the desired temperature using the display. It’s a great attribute for tea lovers, with a beautiful design, but without obvious safety features.

Advantages

• low power consumption;
• The ability to adjust the water temperature from 37 to 100 degrees Celsius;
• there is a teapot with baskets;
• Preservation of the set temperature function.

REDMOND SkyKettle M171S

Rating: 4.5

The REDMOND SkyKettle M171S got into the rating because this smart kettle can keep the set temperature of water for up to 12 hours. This is the best result among all representatives of the list. However, for such a good function it had to “pay off” power characteristics: 2400 watts can be very much for a home power grid.

But what else can we get in exchange for precious energy? First, the function of controlling the start-up process from your smartphone (via Bluetooth and a special program). Secondly, the ability to heat without boiling, lock start without water and auto shut off when removed from the stand. And finally, third, all-metal body with a heating coil, water indicators and a functioning display. Even the buyers themselves consider this to be a bargain!

Advantages

• The ability to keep the water temperature for up to 12 hours;
• control from a smartphone;
• an abundance of safety features;
• kettle ergonomics.

Disadvantages

• high power.
