GoveeLife Smart Electric Kettle with Tea Infuser for Loose Leaf, 1.7 L Electric Tea Kettle with Brewing Program, Variable Temperature Control, 2 H Keep Warm & Auto Shut off, BPA Free, Sliver

Works amazing. Fast heating, large capacity and an easy to use app interface. I’m quite impressed. I would definitely buy again. A fine addition to my other Govee products. My only minor complaint is that the tea infuser is somewhat difficult to clean as it is all one piece, and some tea leaves tend to get stuck to the sides and bottom.

I have used this kettle every day since it arrived about 2 months ago. I love it! I'm a daily tea drinker, so I love being able to set the temperature depending on what tea I'm drinking that day. It paired easily with my phone and Google Home. I also love the "keep warm" function where it can be held at a specific temperature for up to 2 hours. It's easy to clean and gives you a notification when it's time to descale. And, the water is not touching and plastic parts.

This kettle has made my life so much easier in the kitchen, be it our tea time routine or using boiling water for something else, it’s super quick and highly convenient. I was under the impression that 1.7 L could be a tad bit small, but nope! I was wrong, it’s a good size for a family of 4-6 people, and it’s not just good for tea or coffee, it’s extremely helpful for other chores as well. The water boils fairly quickly, I like that the infuser comes out easily which makes cleaning the kettle and the infuser a breeze. I clean the bottom every other day even when I don’t infuse tea leaves. It comes with a brush for cleaning, long handle, easy cleanup. I had connected it with Alexa and it works like a charm, you just give a simple command to Alexa and the water starts to boil on your command withing seconds. The variable temperature presets are spot-on for different teas (green, black, oolong), and the 2-hour keep-warm is good for multiple cups without reboiling. Not having to press a button and being able to operate it remotely is worth all the money. Good size, very well built product, looks good, works even better. Pro tip: I always use filtered water to prevent mineral buildup! Hope this helps!

I ordered this for my mom because she loves instant coffee (like the instant folgers coffee. Its bonkers to me) and heats up her water via her very fancy Keurig (now you see why its bonkers) or in the microwave (yes, ive explained to her in detail the perils of super heated water). So to, mostly save my sanity, I gifted her this for Christmas and she actually loves it! Her favorite thing is that she can have it heating up while she gets ready for work and it takes up a lot less space on her counters. It looks sleek and nice and works great. I genuinely am content with what I got for her so much that Im tempted to replace my old school tea kettle.

Pros: One of the few kettles that have native smart home integration. Being able to start the kettle from the other room is fantastic. Cons: Govee uses different naming schema and preset naming between this kettle and their other smart gooseneck kettle which makes using both kind of annoying. Sometimes alexa will just give an error when attempting to give a verbal command such as "Alexa set [kettle name] to 212 degrees" yet issuing the command "Alexa turn [kettle name] on" then waiting for her to prompt you for the temperature will work. Also the fact that the unit can't be told to "boil" but must be told to be set to "212 degrees" is a touch annoying. On the brink of being great but just needs a touch more QA and UI development.

**Product Review: GoveeLife Smart Electric Kettle with Tea Infuser** I absolutely love the GoveeLife Smart Electric Kettle with Tea Infuser! It has completely elevated my tea-making experience with its smart features and sleek design. The standout feature for me is the app integration. The GoveeLife app is incredibly user-friendly and allows me to control the kettle remotely, adjust the temperature, and even set custom brewing programs for different types of tea. This level of convenience is a game-changer, especially when I want my tea ready as soon as I get up in the morning or while multitasking. The tea infuser is another highlight—it’s well-designed and ensures the perfect brew every time. I also appreciate how easy it is to clean, making the entire process hassle-free. The kettle heats quickly, and the temperature control is precise, ensuring that my tea is brewed at the optimal temperature for maximum flavor. In addition to its functionality, the modern design looks great on my countertop. Overall, this is a fantastic product that I highly recommend to tea enthusiasts or anyone who loves the convenience of smart home gadgets!

If you drink tea, you need an electric kettle! If I remember to put water in the night before, I can tell my bedroom Alexa to heat up the water even before I come down. Or, if I did get up at the same time every day, I could set it to be hot and ready. I also love that it stays warm for up to 30 minutes, so I can make a fresh cup of tea for my husband when I hear him rattling around upstairs. Great quality and performance for the money. The water boils very quickly, the kettle feels very high-quality. We have not used the tea infuser. We also have not used the different temperatures, we always boil to 212, but if you are a white or green tea lover, you may appreciate this feature!

After 6 months of ownership, I’m beyond frustrated by this kettle. There are three issues that makes this a no go. This isn’t a “smart” kettle. It’s a dumb kettle with dumb app, dumb design and dumb support. Cleaning sucks. It’s hard to use. 1) The instructions say to only leave it completely dry to avoid build up. However, due to construction, you cannot physically empty the kettle completely. There will always be water left at the bottom. Unless you use two paper towels to dry it, you quickly get hard water buildup which causes it to boil much slower. Washing soap out is a pain since suds catch on the lip. 2) the lid is a terrible design. If you pour too fast, the lid pops out. The lid easily and frequently brakes into pieces that requires fiddling to reconstruct. 3) you cannot remotely turn the machine on. I wanted hot water in the morning when my alarm went off, but I cannot set it to boil on a schedule. Govee said this was a safety choice, but the kettle auto turns off if there is no water in it. 4) I bought this thinking there was glass and stainless steel. The temperature probe is glued in. The lids have multiple types of plastics and rubbers. 5) the temperature isn’t very accurate. I’ll frequently see +/- 3° F from the stated temp. This isn’t a big deal to me, but is important for those who are buying it for strict temp controls.
