Hamilton Beach 40998 1 L Stainless Steel Electric Kettle

Compact Stainless Kettle

The Hamilton Beach 40998 is a 1 L stainless steel electric kettle designed for quick boiling in small kitchens or office break rooms. It replaces a microwave or stovetop kettle for single servings of tea, coffee or instant meals. The cord-free base allows the jug to be lifted and poured without a trailing lead.

One Litre Capacity

The 1 L volume is the single figure that determines whether this kettle suits the task. It holds enough water for roughly four standard cups, making it suitable for one or two people. Larger households or frequent entertainers will find the capacity limiting and should consider a bigger unit.

Boil Speed and Safety

The concealed heating element brings a full litre to a boil faster than a microwave while the auto shutoff and boil-dry protection cut power if the kettle runs dry. The water-level window lets you fill only what you need, saving energy. It handles daily morning rounds comfortably but cannot supply continuous hot water for back-to-back brewing.
