From here, the base&#8217;s display will show the real-time temperature of the water in the kettle as it heats. While the water is still heating, this display tended to be accurate within the error range of the probe I used.<\/p>\n<p>As a safety mechanism, the kettle will shut itself off by default upon reaching boil. And of course, it&#8217;ll play a little tune. To keep the burner on for an additional 30 minutes, press the Hold button either before or immediately after the kettle reaches temp.<\/p>\n<p>While on hold, the kettle&#8217;s heat will then cycle on once every few minutes to keep the water near the target temp. In practice, the temperature variance on the holding function was about 5 degrees Fahrenheit, meaning the heat tended to kick back on when the water temp drifted down by about 5 degrees.<\/p>\n<p>All of this makes for a beautifully useful kettle\u2014one of the very few kettles on the American market that can actually make an argument for the precision of its water-heating technology while also being frankly beautiful on a countertop.<\/p>\n<h2>But at What Cost<\/h2>\n<p>That said, the MoonKettle doesn&#8217;t do your laundry, compliment your spouse when you forget, or do your grocery shopping. And $260 is quite a lot to pay for a water kettle.<\/p>\n<p>At this high price, you start coming up with things not to like. Why, for example, is the MoonKettle a mere 1,200 watts instead of the more standard 1,500 watts comfortably allowed on a standard United States circuit?<\/p>\n<div class=\"GroupCalloutWrapper-bPWknp
