The electric kettle Camry CR 1290 allows brewing different types of tea directly in the removable basket, eliminating the need for additional dishes. Thanks to the thermostat with the option for manual temperature selection (60 – 100 ºC), the user can unlock the potential of such varieties as Pu-erh, oolong, floral and berry blends. There is multicolor lighting depending on the selected heating mode, which combined with the glass body creates a pleasant visual effect and stylish appearance.

This budget-friendly electric kettle has a significant capacity (2 liters), which is sufficient for a large family and festive gatherings. The round base allows placing the kettle in any position and turning it for ease of use. The lid is fully removable and ensures easy maintenance of the internal walls.

The kettle shuts down automatically, with the end of the process accompanied by a sound signal.

In the range of electric kettles by Cecotec, the ThermoSense 390 Clear model stands out with its glass flask of 1.7 liters and complete stainless steel brewing mesh. The appliance is claimed to be free from potentially harmful components, such as BPA or other toxins.

Performance is ensured by a 2200-watt concealed heating disc, which brings the full capacity to boiling in approximately 5 minutes. Also included is the customary safety system with automatic shutdown in the absence of water or overheating.

The kettle is equipped with a thermostat, which not only boils water but also heats it to four temperatures — 60, 70, 80, or 90 degrees Celsius.

The latter is used for thorough purification of water from bacteria and/or chlorine and involves a 3-minute boiling procedure.

Controls are located on the handle, which is made of plastic and does not heat up during the operation of the appliance. Aside from buttons, there is a display with a thermometer function and color indication of the selected heating temperature. The downside of the model is the abundance of sound signals, which cannot be turned off (they are heard with every button press, at the start and at the completion of a task). In any case, Cecotec ThermoSense 390 Clear is an interesting teapot in the mid-price range.
