AppKettle Stainless Steel WiFi Kettle

Making an electric kettle smart is the greatest thing that could happen to the good old electric kettle, which heats up water fast and doesn't require a stove! The smart kettle you see pictured is called, AppKettle, and can heat up and maintain water to specific temperatures, which is great if you're someone who cares how many grams of tea you're brewing.

With the AppKettle, not only you can boil water remotely from your smartphone, but also boil water manually. The AppKettle has a digital display and four user controlled buttons that allow you to set the boiling temperature and maintain that specific temperature for up to 30 minutes (simply press the "Keep Warm" button and change from 1 minute to 30 minutes).
The AppKettle's heat plate and walls are stainless steel and so it's the spout filter. The water windows are made of glass. The only plastic component is the small clip bracket that holds the stainless steel limescale filter in place at the spout edge. 
 the inner part of the kettle is stainless steel too
The AppKettle can boil water to a range of temperatures, taking into account the temperature of the water put into the kettle. The AppKettle sits on a base of a smart dock/scale that can tell the difference between an empty kettle and a full kettle.

The AppKettle can tell the amount of water inside the kettle by weighing it (water weighs about 1 kilogram per litre) and then figure out how much power it needs to use and for how long in order to heat up a desired amount of water to a desired temperature.

The AppKettle can hold a maximum of 1.7 litres of water (around 6 cups) and has a 2000-2400W heating element. The AppKettle is also able to display the water temperature withing 1 degree centigrade in real-time.
The base of the AppKettle's dock has rubber feet as well as a reel-type insert to tidy the kettle's cord length. Inside the AppKettle itself, there is also a mesh sieve to stop lime scale getting into your mug.

The AppKettle is smart enough to tell when the kettle is empty. It will even alert you to pour in some water:
Once you poured in water, you can adjust the boiling temperature up to 100 degrees centigrade

Here is how AppKettle works via the phone app (skip to minute 1:13 mark)
