I need a beautiful electric kettle that will last a lifetime. Any recommendations? I'm willing to pay quite a bit.

Id the goal is to last a lifetime, get great value for a long life, then an electric kettle is a poor choice. A simple stovetop kettle is likely cheaper and will last longer. It’s a better investment for a lifetime.

A separate electric kettle is a convenience, not necessarily the best long term investment

I'm torn between electric and one for the stove. I agree that the stovetop one will last forever but I'd miss the convenience of it switching off automatically and being able to put it everywhere without worrying about its temperature.

Pretty convenient
