HKM-7104467 2.6L Electric Glass Kettle with Double Layers and Digital Keep Warm Function

HKM-7104467 · Electric Kettles · Double-Wall Glass, 2.6 L

Two Layers of Glass, 2.6 Litres

HKM-7104467 is a 2.6 L double-wall glass kettle, paired with a glass teapot on a shared base. The double wall is the practical part: the outer surface stays cool while the water inside is boiling, and the air gap slows heat loss between rounds.

Both vessels sit on one base with two readouts, so water can be heating while tea is brewing. The keep-warm function is digital rather than a mechanical switch.

Two finishes, black and grey.

Materials and Construction

Two glass walls with an air gap between them. That construction does two things at once: the outer wall stays at a temperature you can touch, and the gap reduces the rate at which the water cools. A single-wall glass kettle is hot to the hand and loses heat faster.

The base carries two heated pads and a control strip with separate readouts. Each side is set independently, which is why the pair works as a station rather than as two separate appliances.

• Double-wall glass body, cool to the touch
• Stainless collar at the neck, taking the lid and handle loads
• Two independent heated positions on one base

What Double Wall Changes

Safety first: a single-wall glass kettle at 100 °C is not something to brush against. The second wall removes that hazard, which matters in a house with children or in a small kitchen where the kettle sits close to the worktop edge.

Then heat retention. The air gap does not make it a thermos, but it holds temperature long enough that a second cup does not need a second boil.

The pair is not a matched set in the decorative sense: the kettle is the boiler and the teapot is the brewer, and they are shaped differently because of it. The kettle is broad and short so the element has water over it; the teapot is narrower so the leaf sits deep enough to steep evenly. On the shared base they read as one appliance, but they are two tools.

How It Works

Heat in the larger vessel, brew in the smaller one. Because both are on the same base, the second round starts with hot water already available rather than with a cold fill.

The teapot uses the same glass construction, so the leaf is visible while it infuses and the colour is the signal to lift the infuser.

The pair takes the width of two vessels plus a gap, so it wants a run of counter rather than a corner: the kettle and the teapot are lifted separately and set down separately, and the base has to stay clear between them. Set it where both handles can be reached without moving either vessel.

Where the double wall earns its keep is at the table: a glass kettle without it is hot to the touch at the waist within a minute of boiling, which means it has to be carried by the handle alone and set down with care. The second wall makes the body holdable and turns a fragile object into one that can be moved while it is still working.

Placement and Use

The base is wide. It needs a level counter, clearance above the taller vessel, and enough depth that neither body overhangs the front edge where a sleeve can catch a handle.

• Level surface, dry contacts before seating either vessel
• Keep the control strip clear of splashes
• Leave headroom above the kettle for lifting the lid

Both vessels sit on the same ring contacts, so either one can be lifted and set back without looking, which matters more than it sounds when both are full.

Included and Optional

Black and grey are the finishes, and the double wall changes how they read: the outer glass carries the colour as a tint rather than as a coat, so the surface has depth in a way a painted shell does not. The stainless collar and the base frame are the only bright elements in either version.

Colours and Finishes

Black and grey are offered on the coated lower sections and handles. With double-wall glass the body reads slightly darker than single-wall glass because of the second reflection, so both finishes look more solid than the sample images suggest.

The stainless collars stay polished in both.

Double-wall glass is cleaned like single-wall glass from the inside and like a painted surface from the outside: the inner wall takes vinegar and a soft brush, the outer wall takes a damp cloth and no abrasive. The gap between them is sealed, so water that reaches the seam at the base has nowhere to go — which is why the body is never immersed.

Care and Maintenance

Descale monthly in hard-water areas. Scale on a double-wall floor is harder to see than on single wall — if boiling times lengthen, treat it before it becomes visible.

Hand wash both vessels. Do not immerse the base, and never fill a hot vessel with cold water.
