According to the internet this week, Americans don't use electric kettles. While this might not be 100% true for all American households, it's time we put a stop to this nonsense.

It's also wonderful if you enjoy tea or make hot chocolate on cold winter nights. Boiled down, an electric kettle means you'll have hot water in mere moments without needing to pay attention since the kettle will automatically turn off when water is boiling.
