To begin our best water kettles of 2025, we'll tell you our overall winner when it comes to high-quality functionality, performance and design: the Breville the Soft Top™ Pure water kettle. This kettle offers a capacity of 57 ounces, or 1.7 liters, so you can brew as much tea as you'd like. The appliance also features a removable scale filter to ensure your hot beverage is as fresh and clean as possible. As most faucets and water spouts produce hard water, scale filters like this one are designed to trap minerals like limescale and prevent them from getting into your drink. When it comes to heating your kettle, you can rely on Rapid Boil and its 1800-watt concealed element to give you the most optimal water temperature. Once that boiling point is reached, the Auto Shut Off feature will ensure your kettle powers down to keep you and your household safe. This safety factor is extended even further with the Soft Top® lid, which prevents accidental burns by eliminating splashing and gently releasing steam. All of this and more can be accomplished with this best water kettles of 2025 model at the utmost convenience of the user, thanks to the cordless jug design.

The next product on our best water kettles of 2025 list is the perfect option for those looking to spend less on their appliance: the Capresso H2O Glass water kettle. With a 48-ounce (six-cup) capacity, this versatile kettle can help you with several tasks, including brewing French press coffee or heating water for tea, couscous, yeast and instant soups. Feel free to brew anywhere too, as the kettle base is heat-resistant and safe to place on any surface. The body of the kettle is constructed with German Schott DURAN® glass, which is durable and heat resistant. When the time comes to use your kettle, measuring your water precisely will be easier than ever thanks to the ounce and cup markings. The model's stainless steel heating dome is extremely efficient too, covering a heating element that boils water quietly and faster than a standard stovetop kettle. The moment your water reaches a boiling point, the kettle will shut off automatically. You won't even have to worry about handling the kettle at its hottest, as the appliance features a cool touch handle. Even if you forget to pour water into your kettle before turning it on, this best water kettles of 2025 model offers boil dry protection which turns the kettle off when no water is detected.

If you live in an apartment or condo without ample storage, or if your kitchen is small in size, investing in compact appliances is the number one goal so you can have more of what you need without sacrificing space. In this case, our recommendation for the best water kettles of 2025 is the Smeg 50s Retro Style Electric Kettle. This kettle is supported by 1400 watts of power and it offers a 27-fluid-ounce capacity for all of your beverage and cooking needs. No matter what you use the kettle for, your boiling water is guaranteed to be as fresh and clean as possible thanks to the built-in filter. Filling up the kettle is simple, thanks to the 80-degree opening angle. Plus, the kettle has a water level indicator so you can ensure your pours are precisely measured. When the boiling point is reached, the appliance will shut off automatically, but it will also perform this shut-off function when the body is detached from the kettle base and when there's an insufficient level of water inside. The stainless steel double-wall design of this model is extremely beneficial for tea lovers too, as it keeps your water hot for a longer period all while maintaining a cool-to-the-touch exterior. When you're done pouring your hot water into a mug, just place the kettle back on the base. While the base can rotate a full 360 degrees for easy use, the non-slip feet of the appliance will keep it stable and supported. This model was suggested for its compact size, yes, but truthfully, the best part of this Smeg electric kettle is its vintage appeal and aesthetically pleasing design.
