Is $17.99 a good price for this kettle?

It is the only new price listed, $17.99 at shopelitegourmet.com as of November 5, 2026, so there is no recent range to compare. At under $20 for 1.8 liters with cool-touch walls, it is inexpensive for the size.

Does it shut off automatically?

Yes. It has auto shut-off when the water boils and boil-dry protection that cuts power if the kettle runs empty.

How much water does it hold?

1.8 liters, about 7.6 cups, enough for roughly six to seven mugs in one boil.

Is the outside safe to touch while boiling?

The cool-touch double-wall body stays comfortable to handle, though the lid and spout area still get hot.

Does it have temperature settings?

No. It boils water to one temperature and shuts off; there is no variable temperature or keep-warm mode.

The kettle itself, one piece, with the mesh filter fitted at the spout. No separate base accessories are listed beyond the corded base.
