Viante Electric Tea Kettle With Infuser for Loose Leaf, No Plastic In Contact With Water, Temperature Control, Auto Shut Off, 1.5L Borosilicate Glass, Midnight Blue

Viante's midnight blue 1.5L borosilicate glass electric kettle with an infuser, temperature control and no plastic touching water.

Our score8.6/10

An electric tea maker automates the whole brew, heating water to a set temperature, steeping loose leaves in a built-in basket, and often keeping the finished tea warm. It suits home tea drinkers who want consistent results without watching a timer or juggling separate kettle and infuser. Programmable settings take the guesswork out of matching heat and steep time to each tea. When shopping, look for adjustable temperature and steep-time presets that cover greens through blacks and herbals, plus a roomy infuser basket that lets leaves expand. A keep-warm function holds your tea at drinking temperature, while capacity should match how much you brew at once. Easy-clean parts, a clear control panel, and durable glass or stainless construction make an automatic maker worth the counter space.
