I am looking for a cordless automatic electronic kettle with 100% stainless-steel interior (without plastic "Max" fill mark). Could anyone help?

For mine, the plastic max fill indicator came out pretty easily. I didn't need to cut it off or use any tools. As long as you make sure that you know where this max level is, using the hollow metal tube that protrudes on the inside, then you really don't need this plastic insert.

Don't buy this product !!Had two and both failed. One had the wiring catch fire.

Note that the interior base of this kettle is not stainless steel. It's some sort of metal with a shiny metal coating (sort of like a metallic paint), which on my kettle has recently begun peeling off, leaving bits of this metallic stuff in the water. It took a couple years of usage before this started happening, but still.. I wouldn't recommend this kettle to anyone.

This kettle has a 'max-fill' mark inside (if you fill it more than that it spits-out water when it comes to a boil, which is dangerous), but it does not have the normal outer visual indicator to show what level the water is from the outside. It is a bit noisier than my wonderful Russell-Hobbs that is no longer available in USA.

looks like there's a little bit of plastic in it. The max fill marker looks plastic. I assume inside is plastic.

the top of the water level indicator button is plastic, however, the section below the "MAX" button appears to be a hollow metal tube - my second favorite engineer concurs with this assessment.

This kettle does have the black plastic fill mark, BUT...it's the best kettle I've ever had. In an earlier review I stated that it finally died after eleven years. Wrong. It was only sleeping. I shoved the plug into the wall socket a little more firmly, and that's all it took. Going on twelve years now, and still going strong.

The inside of the kettle is stainless steel. It isn't coated with plastic like some makes are.

I have a glass top electric range and found my newest Revere kettle (made in China) is a "bomb". It is made so none of the copper bottom touches the burner surface resulting in a disappointing time to boil water. I had a larger Revere made in Korea that was a gem, but over the years the whistling lid and opening devise failed and were not available for replacing. As a result I junked my Revere kettles and purchased the most attractive and cheapest kettle I could find at B J's, now I boil water in nothing flat, (quickly).

I have no idea i sent it back next day. i found that the best kettles are the ones u can press and release for water to pour out of spout. Most cheaper models don't allow u t press spout button release. i found a newer and better model at Ross for $15.. Its so much better to go in and asses the product in person before buying on line.

The Bodum kettle has a stainless steel interior base, but the sides are plastic. It is a very good kettle, by the way.

Is there a UK version of this kettle? I cannot find an all steel kettle anywhere in the UK!

I don't think you can find one. I came up empty handed in my search. On person somehow stretched an empty tea bag across the spout in order to make it shut off automatically. It needs some back pressure to make it work. I took things apart and discovered that. I had trashed mine not knowing that was what made the kettle shut off. Sorry I am not of much help.

The closest contender is Medelco Brand. The parts are German, assembly occurs in the US. http://buymerican.com/2292/madeinusa/medelco-stovetop-whistling-tea-kettle.html

The inside of the kettle is all stainless steel, except for the plastic window

Hello! The only plastic part inside is the water measuring stick, the metal round inside is containing heating equipment and it has no seams inside kettle so it's perfectly safe to use, no plastic. I've got this kettle for my mom a year ago and it`s the best one from all we had, still working, no plastic taste. Please enjoy!

The interior of the kettle is all stainless steel, except for a couple of plastic parts. The rubber seals around the temperature probe and of course the water level gauge which is plastic and the removable water screen.

The body is stainless, not lined. There is plastic high on the inside, one is the inside of the handle, and one is at the top of the metal heating element, but the water does not touch either. I was concerned about it, but I think it's fine. The water does not have a plastic-y taste or smell at all. And the kettle is attractive, which I can't say for the other models on the market.

Yes. The bottom of the kettle is covered with a smooth metal. This is about as little metal I have been able to find in an electric kettle. The alternative is an all glass pot requiting a stove. It is a no frills unit that works great and is not hot to the touch on the outside (double wall...).

yes - the entire inside is plastic. I don't use the kettle tbh as the boiled water tastes of plastic, like a bottle of water you've left in the car on a hot day. Its in the cupboard and hasn't been used pretty much since I bought it. Try a metal kettle or something else. This is a bad buy.

Technically the interior is 98% stainless steel but there is a little plastic piece about the size of a button at the base on the inside that allows the water to flow into a chamber by the handle that tells you how much water you've put in the pot. So even though it is stainless steel the water you are boiling does come into contact with a little bit of plastic. I do like this kettle but I think it is a lesser of evils compared to what is out there because it only lasted 6 months before the heating mechanism stopped working and the fact that it isn't 100% stainless. That being said, unless I wanted to fork out 4 times the money I would by this one again.

After reading some of the 3 star reviews - Yes it does contain some plastic: max water marker and some on the lid. So, if you're like me looking for an all non-plastic interior kettle, this one is not it either.
