Is the KEK1701 worth $179.95?

That is the best new price across 4 stores as of November 5, 2026, and it is at the top of the recent range. You are paying for variable temperature control and a large capacity, not for a discount.

How much water does it hold?

57.5 fl oz, roughly 1.7 liters, or about seven 8 oz cups. That is larger than most variable-temperature kettles.

Can I set exact temperatures?

It has variable temperature control, but the listed specs do not give the selectable settings or increments. Check the control panel details before buying if you need a specific brew temperature.

How fast does it boil?

The 2000–2400W element is high for a kettle this size, so a full boil should take only a few minutes. Exact times depend on your voltage and starting water temperature.

The kettle, its detachable swivel base and the removable limescale filter. The cord is fixed at 1.055 m.

What does the warranty cover?

Two years of replacement for manufacturer faults in household use. Commercial use is not covered.

Our take on the Electric Kettle KEK1701

The KEK1701 is a 57.5 fl oz (about 1.7 L) variable-temperature electric kettle with a 2000–2400W element, a removable limescale filter and a detachable swivel base. It is aimed at households that want temperature control for tea and coffee rather than a plain boil-only kettle. At $179.95 at Wayfair as of November 5, 2026, it sits at the top of its recent price range, so it is not a bargain moment.
