Collection: Swan Alexa Kettle Review: Is It Worth It?

The Swan Alexa Kettle: A Love-Hate Relationship

Okay, folks, let's talk about the Swan Alexa Kettle. This thing is like that friend who's always trying to be helpful but ends up making things more complicated. It's a smart kettle, sure, but is it *really* smart? Let's dive in.

The Good, the Bad, and the "Alexa, What's the Point?"

The Good:

  • It's a kettle. It boils water. That's its primary function, and it does it well. No complaints there.
  • Alexa integration. You can control it with your voice. This is cool in theory, but in practice, it's more like "Alexa, turn on the kettle... Alexa, turn off the kettle... Alexa, did you turn off the kettle?"
  • Temperature control. You can set the exact temperature for your tea or coffee. This is a nice feature for those who are particular about their beverages.

The Bad:

  • The app. It's clunky and not very user-friendly. You're better off just using your voice, which brings us to...
  • Alexa's quirks. Sometimes Alexa just doesn't understand what you're saying. "Alexa, turn on the kettle" becomes "Alexa, turn on the kettle... Alexa, turn on the kettle... Alexa, did you hear me?"
  • The price. It's more expensive than a regular kettle. Is the convenience worth the extra cost? That's up to you.

The "Alexa, What's the Point?"

Honestly, the Swan Alexa Kettle is a bit of a gimmick. It's fun to use for a while, but the novelty wears off quickly. You end up just using it like a regular kettle, which begs the question: why bother with the extra features?

Final Verdict:

The Swan Alexa Kettle is a decent kettle with some cool features, but it's not a game-changer. If you're looking for a smart kettle that's truly smart, you might want to look elsewhere. But if you're just looking for a kettle that can be controlled with your voice, this one will do the job. Just be prepared for some frustration along the way.
