Here in Poland we also have some steel kettles still made locally but those are a pain to clean. I was really afraid that such thin glass will explode with the first boiling but surprisingly, it works quite well ? The glass is really thin, so you have to be extra careful while handling it. It does have some drawbacks though – you can’t add cold water while the kettle is still hot, and it is fairly fragile. Unlike steel kettles, it’s really easy to clean. It’s not really German but more Hungarian actually – that’s where the glass is made – but regardless, it’s a great thing to have for my gas stove. I have a “German” borosilicate glass kettle at home (someone gave the link to those already), I’ve had it for a couple of years and can really recommend it. Obviously, I’m also concerned about the absolute lack of safety and quality of Chinese stuff.īut back to the subject of kettles – luckily, alternatives still exist. After seeing some documentaries on how they treat animals, and what horrors are happening for those who do not agree with the government, I’ve decided to stop supporting this country with my wallet. I don’t want to support their economy in any way.

If I absolutely have to buy something and I cannot find a non-Chinese equivalent, I buy used things. Thanks for this post! I do my best to never buy new Chinese products.
