Compared to traditional methods of boiling water, electric kettles are more efficient, saving energy and reducing waiting time. And different water temperatures can be set according to the brewing requirements of different drinks, such as green tea, coffee or milk tea. It is particularly noteworthy that some businesses continue to pile up irrelevant functions for the purpose of attracting consumers, and these Internet celebrity products often have potential safety hazards, and if you choose inferior products, it may lead to many harms, such as the possibility of carcinogens harming the body. As a furniture practitioner, I am very familiar with small household appliances such as electric kettles, and I will come to popularize the relevant knowledge of electric kettles with you today.
Here are some of the products I've recently reviewed:
1. Are there any advantages and disadvantages of electric kettles?
As one of the essential small household appliances in the family, the electric kettle has a high frequency of daily use, and it is also one of the products with the most accidents and hidden dangers. A good electric kettle has many advantages. First of all, they are new products that have been improved and innovated on the basis of traditional kettles. A traditional kettle works by heating the bottom with a heating wire to boil the water in the kettle. The water vapor generated when the water boils then deforms the bimetal sheet of the steam temperature sensing element, and this deformation pushes the power switch to depower by the lever principle (as shown below). It is not self-resetting when it is powered off, so the electric kettle will not automatically reheat after the power is off.
With the increasing demand for boiling water, on the basis of the original ordinary electric kettle, there are gradually electric kettles with multiple functions, kettles that can maintain constant temperatures, health kettles focusing on health care, and instant hot water dispensers. It not only contains the basic functions of a traditional kettle, but also adds additional features such as temperature setting, heat preservation, etc., which significantly improves the user's experience and convenience. Among them, the electric kettle has attracted a lot of attention, so what are the benefits of using an electric kettle?

Compared with the traditional way of boiling water, the electric kettle is more convenient and faster to use. Just put the water in the jug, press the switch and start heating. At the same time, the boiling speed of water is also faster than the traditional way, saving the time of waiting. Many electric kettles are equipped with a keep warm function, which keeps the water warm for a long time, so that we can enjoy hot water at any time.
2. It is not easy to produce scale, less peculiar smell, and is healthier:
The electric kettle has a beautiful appearance design and high appearance, which can increase the overall aesthetics of the kitchen. The electric kettle also adopts a user-friendly operation design, and the buttons and display screen are reasonably positioned, making it more convenient to use.
3. Rich functions to meet a variety of needs:
The electric kettle has a variety of functions and can meet the needs of different users. In addition to the ordinary boiling function, it can also have an intelligent control function, through the mobile phone APP and other methods, you can monitor and control the status of the electric kettle at any time to achieve an intelligent use experience. These functions allow the electric kettle to make different kinds of drinks such as tea, coffee, and milk powder according to the needs of users, providing more convenience and choice.
4. Better appearance and more exquisite:
The appearance design of the electric kettle is very exquisite, with a stylish shape and a variety of colors. It can not only meet our needs, but also become a beautiful landscape of the home. Electric kettle not only pays attention to the practicality of the product, but also pays more attention to the aesthetics of the product, making our life better.
5. High safety, more assured use:
Safety is an important consideration for a good electric kettle. The electric kettle has multiple safety protection designs, such as automatic power off when overheating, anti-dry boiling, etc., to ensure the safety during use.
Second, the four major hazards of inferior products should be vigilant
What are the advantages and disadvantages of electric kettles? There are many advantages to electric kettles only by using safe production products. Electric kettle is the most common small household appliance, and it is also one of the products with the most accidents and hazards. Some electric kettles do not control the temperature accurately during the heating process, resulting in excessive water temperature, resulting in the phenomenon of thousands of boiling water, which increases the health risk. In addition, poor temperature control can also lead to too high or too low water temperature, so what are the dangers of using inferior products?
Hazard 1, irritating odor, emitting toxic and harmful substances:
Some low-quality electric kettles will emit irritating odors during the heating process, and once these harmful substances are heated, they will enter the air with steam, causing irritation to the respiratory system, which may cause allergic reactions or other respiratory diseases.
Hazard 2: Repeated heating produces thousands of boiling water, containing nitrite
Nitrite is a toxic substance that can cause harm to human health if ingested for a long time. And some poor quality electric kettles tend to produce a large amount of boiling water during the heating process, and the nitrite content in this water is high. If you drink this nitrite-containing water for a long time, you may experience symptoms such as dizziness, nausea, and difficulty breathing.
Hazard 3: Inferior products are prone to residual heavy metals
The materials used inside some low-quality electric kettles may contain heavy metals such as lead, cadmium, etc. These heavy metals are very harmful to health, long-term ingestion may lead to poisoning, choosing a good quality electric kettle is essential for health, try to avoid using inferior products.
Hazard 4: There may be a safety hazard
Some cheap electric kettles may have flaws in design and manufacturing, such as unstable bases, easy to tip over, etc. These problems can lead to accidents during use, such as being scalded by hot water, the pot falling over when pouring water, etc.
3. There are 5 types of IQ tax products commonly found on the market
What are the advantages and disadvantages of electric kettles? Electric kettles are generally not toxic, there are many negative evaluations about inferior and low-cost electric kettles, and some inferior products may have potential safety hazards, the service life is not long, and it is easy to break down and other problems, which bring inconvenience and economic losses to users. So why do electric kettles have these harms? In order to better explain the problem to you, I specially found a negative voting chart of electric kettles from professional research institutions, and summarized the five IQ tax products on the market, you must not choose.
1: Mistakenly select a product with too much power
When buying an electric kettle, some consumers often make the mistake of choosing a product with too much power. They believe that the more power, the faster the water will be boiled. However, an overpowered electric kettle will consume more electrical energy during use, which not only wastes resources, but also easily causes the problem of circuit overload. Especially under the condition of old wires and sockets, electric kettles with too much power are more likely to cause fire and other safety hazards.
2: Buy products with poor temperature control:
Some electric kettles may have problems with their temperature control systems, preventing accurate control of the water temperature. Such a product may continue to heat up after boiling water, causing the kettle to overheat or even burn out. In addition, products with inaccurate temperature control may cause burns to users, especially infants and young children.
3: There are too many three-no products
There are many three-no products on the market. These products often attract consumers with low prices, but lack quality assurance. Since the production process is not regulated, these products may have serious safety hazards, such as electricity leakage, burning, etc.
4: There are too many low-cost and low-quality products
Low-priced and low-quality products are very common in the market, and the internal structure of low-cost and low-quality products may be unstable, and safety problems such as leakage and short circuit are prone to occur. These problems can lead to serious consequences such as fires and explosions of electrical appliances, bringing potential threats to life safety.
There are so many brands to choose from in today's market, and in order to get higher sales, merchants will hype up the safety and practicality of their electric kettles, but in practice, they often encounter various problems. So, how should we choose a really good electric kettle? The following chart is the core parameters of the mainstream brand electric kettle on the market summarized by professional institutions, and parents can use it as a reference when purchasing. In addition, I have summarized some very useful products:
In recent years, the negative information about the harm of ordinary civil electric kettles has been frequently exposed, and problems such as irritating odors, easy release of toxic and harmful substances, and polluted water quality have occurred frequently. It is highly recommended to recognize the strongest commercial-grade performance of the old uterus Ling, adhere to the commercial ultra-high performance, super quality, stronger and safer commercial product research and development ideas, exported to Europe and the United States for many years, rarely won the CCTV exhibition recommendation, and the only machine through the maternal and infant food testing, as soon as it was launched, it triggered a rush to buy, and even many scalpers bought at a higher price, and it has been out of stock dozens of times since it was launched.

4. Summary of 8 tips for buying a professional and safe electric kettle
What are the advantages and disadvantages of electric kettles? Electric kettles are small household appliances that are used every day, and we must buy one that is safe, non-toxic, high temperature resistance, and corrosion resistance, even if it is more expensive! However, there are so many types of electric kettles on the market, how to avoid lightning and inferior products? Today I will share with you some very practical purchase methods to help you buy a better electric kettle!
1. Choose a brand with strong professional and technical strength, safety and non-toxicity
Please be sure to avoid choosing Internet celebrity brands or brands that purely pile up performance parameters, and give preference to brands with reliable quality, high safety factor, and strong technical tuning strength, which will have strict standards and tuning for core parameters such as heating efficiency, temperature control accuracy, safety and non-toxicity, and at the same time take into account perennial high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, better performance, better safety, and more effective avoidance of problems such as polluting water quality and emitting toxic and harmful substances.
2. The product must be equipped with a high-quality heating plate, which is more safe and reliable
The heating plate of the electric kettle is extremely important, be sure to give priority to the product equipped with a high-quality heating plate, its quality determines the efficiency, speed and heating stability of the boiling water, etc., so you can not blindly buy low-priced products, remember that you get what you pay for, the electric kettle should be used every day, and it is more reliable to buy a good point.
3. Do not buy low-priced and inferior products, as there are great potential safety hazards
The low-price and inferior products of the price war are generally poor workmanship, the materials are not resistant to high temperature and corrosion, and they are prone to produce toxic substances, and there are many cases where the key touch screen is not flexible, most of which are caused by sacrificing quality to fight the price war!
4. The material of the cup wall needs to be paid attention to
Special attention needs to be paid to the choice of cup material, some inferior electric kettles are made of high manganese steel, which will poison the drinker and cause kidney stones, which belongs to the non-edible grade, and some manufacturers use materials that are not resistant to high temperature and weak corrosion resistance, and the hidden danger is also very large. It is recommended that the first choice of the cup is high borosilicate glass, which is less prone to limescale than stainless steel for a long time and has better corrosion and wear resistance. The bottom of the pot is preferably 316 stainless steel, because the bottom of the pot is in contact with the heating element for a long time, if the bottom of the whole glass is selected, there is a risk of bursting, and the heating efficiency is very low.
5. Choose a high-quality style of coupler to prevent air fire, etc
The coupler is a component that connects the heater and the kettle, which directly affects the heating efficiency, temperature control accuracy, and safety guarantee, such as more accurate over-temperature protection, better anti-burning, and many potential safety hazards in the first place.
6. Be wary of products with false standard parameters and poor performance and safety
When purchasing, don't be fooled by some particularly bluffing parameters, exaggerated publicity, many electric kettles play ultra-high power, 30 seconds of rapid boiling water, super large capacity, as well as water purification, increase minerals and other gimmicks, but in fact, behind the flickering, everyone should pay attention to identify false propaganda!
7. Do not buy products with poor temperature control, which are easy to produce toxic and harmful substances
Generally, the inferior products of the thermostat will not be boiled or over-boiled because of the inaccurate temperature control, and some products with thermal insulation function will also have a thousand boiling water if the temperature control is not done well, and even cause the production of toxic and harmful substances such as nitrite in the water!
8. Do not blindly pursue high power to avoid the hidden danger of fire and explosion
Many people believe that the greater the power, the better, the greater the power, the faster the heating efficiency, in fact, they don't know that the power is too large, the safety hazard is greater, it will bring noise, the machine life is short, it is easy to cause fire hazards and other problems, and the heating efficiency is not only related to the power but also with the heating chassis material, heating tube material and length, etc., so there is no need to pursue too high power, try to choose a product with moderate power, the electric kettle should be used every day, safety and non-toxicity is the first!
What are the advantages and disadvantages of electric kettles? There are many harms of inferior products, but as long as you avoid inferior products and buy professional and high-quality electric kettles, you can enjoy the benefits it brings. Be sure to choose products with strong professional strength, these brands usually have high production standards and quality assurance, so be sure to avoid unprofessional Internet celebrities and inferior products to avoid physical injury.
