HKM-7038931 Electric Glass Teapot with Stainless Steel Kettle and Thermometer - 110V Tea Maker Set

HKM-7038931 · Electric Kettles · Glass Teapot Set, 110 V

A Glass Teapot and Kettle on One Base

HKM-7038931 is a two-part tea set: a glass teapot with a central infuser column, and a second vessel for heating water, both on one base with separate readouts. The glass is the reason to buy it — leaf opens in view, and the colour tells you when to lift the column.

A thermometer sits in the lid, so the water temperature is readable without a separate probe. The base carries two displays and three controls: power, heating and keep warm.

Two finishes are listed, grey and black. The set runs on 110 V.

At a Glance

• Type — glass teapot and kettle set
• Voltage — 110 V
• Teapot — glass body, central infuser column, lid thermometer
• Second vessel — stainless upper, glass lower
• Base — two heated positions, two readouts
• Controls — power, heating, keep warm

Materials and Construction

The teapot is glass from rim to base, with a stainless column through the centre that holds the leaf. Because the column is metal and perforated along its length, water circulates through it rather than around a bag sitting on the floor of the pot.

The second vessel mixes materials: a stainless collar and lid above a glass body, so the water level is visible while it heats. Both vessels sit on one base, each with its own readout.

• All-glass teapot with a removable stainless infuser column
• Lid thermometer on the teapot
• Stainless and glass heating vessel, visible water line

How the Set Is Used

Heat water in the second vessel, pour it over the leaf in the teapot, and watch the infusion. When the colour reaches the point you want, lift the column out and the brew stops.

Both vessels can be heated at once, which is the practical advantage of the shared base: the next round is already hot while the first is being drunk.

The lid thermometer is the detail that separates the two vessels in daily use: the teapot reads its own temperature at the lid, while the water vessel reports on the base. Two places to look, one for the brew and one for the water.

The two readouts are set independently, so one vessel can be brought to a rolling boil while the other is held at a steeping temperature.

How It Works

The lid thermometer reads the water in the teapot, not the base setting, which is the number that actually matters once the water has been poured. Keep-warm holds the base at temperature between rounds.

Green and white teas are brewed well below boiling; black and pu-erh want water closer to a full boil. Pouring at the right temperature is easier to control than correcting a brew that has already gone bitter.

The set occupies the footprint of a small tray: two vessels side by side on one base, each with its own readout, and a gap between them wide enough to lift either off without touching the other. That gap is why the base is longer than a single kettle's plate, and it is the measurement worth checking against the counter before the set is bought.

Placement and Use

The base is wide because it carries two vessels. It needs a level, dry surface with clearance above the taller vessel, and enough depth that neither body overhangs the front edge.

• Level counter, dry base contacts before seating either vessel
• Keep the control strip clear of splashes
• No thermal shock: never cold water into a hot glass vessel

Hand wash the glass. A dishwasher cycle clouds it over time and dulls the stainless column.

Included and Optional

Two colourways are sold, grey and black, and both leave the glass clear and the stainless collar bright. The coloured parts are the mouldings — handles, lids, base frame — rather than the vessels, so the set looks the same from the table whichever one is chosen; the difference is in the furniture around the glass.

Colours and Finishes

Grey and black are offered. Both use the same glass and stainless parts; the difference is the coated lower bodies and handles. Grey reads lighter against a white kitchen, black against stainless appliances.

Because the vessels are largely transparent, most of the colour on the counter comes from the tea rather than from the appliance.

The glass teapot is the part that shows every mark, so it is also the part that sets the cleaning routine. A rinse after each use keeps the infuser column from staining at the base, where the leaf sits closest to the glass; the stainless column itself takes a brush from both ends. The second vessel, being metal above and glass below, wipes clean at the collar and needs vinegar only at the element.

The base itself is the part that ties the set together: same width as both vessels, same panel along the front, and a cord that leaves from the back edge so neither vessel has a cable running past it.

Care and Maintenance

Rinse the infuser column after every use; leaf caught in the perforations dries hard and blocks flow. Empty both vessels and leave the lids off to dry, so no ring forms inside the glass.

Descale the heating vessel monthly in hard-water areas. White scale on the stainless floor slows every boil and eventually triggers early cut-out.
