Capacity & Use

The Yoochu EK-170S is a 1.7 litre electric kettle built for households and offices that need up to eight cups of hot water quickly. Its 304 stainless-steel interior touches every surface water reaches, so there is no plastic aftertaste or BPA concern. The 1500 watt element brings a full load to 212 °F in about six minutes. A 360 degree swivel base lets left- and right-handed users lift and return the kettle from any angle.

Boil-Dry & Auto-Shutoff Limits

The kettle powers down automatically when the water reaches a full boil or when the vessel is empty, preventing damage from dry operation. This safety cut-out also reduces energy use by roughly fifteen percent compared with standard models. The protection works only while the kettle sits correctly on its powered base; it does not operate if the unit is lifted mid-cycle or used without the base.

Material Decider

The single specification that decides suitability is the 304 stainless-steel interior covering the spout, lid and inner body. Buyers who require every water-contact surface to be metal with zero plastic components will find this kettle meets that requirement; anyone needing a visible water-level window or a variable temperature dial will not, because those features are absent.

Questions about this item

Is the 1.7 litre capacity right for my household?

The 1.7 litre kettle holds roughly eight cups, enough for several mugs of tea or a round of instant meals without refilling.

How long does the 1500 watt element take to boil a full kettle?

A full 1.7 litres reaches a rolling 212 °F boil in about six minutes, so you spend less time waiting.
