Overview
The Amazon Basics F-625C combines a glass body with stainless steel accents at the $25.99 price point, delivering a visual and material step up from plastic-only competitors at a similar price. At 1500 W it hits the standard fast-boil threshold, and 1.7 L is the household-standard capacity covering four to six mugs per fill.
At 1.13 lb, the F-625C is one of the lightest kettles in the category despite its multi-material construction, glass and stainless tend to weigh more than plastic, so this is a notable result for easy handling. Dimensions of 8.74 x 6.22 x 9.41 inches fit a standard counter footprint.
What makes this model stand out is the rating profile: 4.6 stars from 27,400 reviewers is a compelling signal. At this price, most glass kettles carry far fewer reviews, making the F-625C one of the better-validated options in its segment. For buyers who want glass aesthetics, full power, and the security of a large review pool, this is a strong candidate.
