Pros and cons
✓ Pros
- Double wall keeps the outside cool to touch, which matters with kids around
- 2200W boils a full 1.7L faster than the 1500W kettles here
- Strix controller is the industry-standard safety cutout, not a generic thermostat
✗ Cons
- No temperature presets, so it boils and stops rather than holding 80°C for tea
- Double-walled bodies hide the water level, so you fill by the window rather than by eye
- The anti-scale filter needs rinsing regularly with hard tap water
The Philips HD9395/90 is the kettle we would put in most Filipino kitchens. It is fast (2200W), full size (1.7L), and double-walled so the outside stays cool, for around ₱3,200. What it does not do is hold a temperature.
How well does it work?
2200W is the fastest wattage in our kettle coverage, matched only by the Xiaomi glass kettle. On a full 1.7L, about seven cups, that is the difference between waiting and glancing away. For a household making coffee for several people in the morning, it is one boil rather than two.
The double-walled build is what separates it from cheaper stainless kettles. An air gap between the food-grade stainless inner pot and the outer shell keeps the surface touchable while the water inside is at a rolling boil, and it holds the water hot noticeably longer afterwards. On a counter in a house with small kids, that is a safety feature, not a luxury.
Philips names its safety component, which most brands here do not: a Strix controller that cuts power at the boil, when the kettle runs empty, and when it is lifted off the base. The base is a 360° cordless swivel, so it sets down from any angle.
Two practical details that matter in Philippine kitchens: the removable anti-scale mesh filter in the spout catches the flakes hard tap water produces, and the wide opening means you can actually get a hand inside to clean it.
What are the limits?
No temperature presets. It boils and stops. If you drink green tea or brew pour-over coffee, this is the wrong kettle, and the ZOLELE HK152 at around ₱1,200 less has presets.
The double wall hides the water level. You fill by the markings rather than by eye. Minor, but it is the daily cost of the cool-touch body.
The filter needs rinsing regularly with hard water, or it clogs and slows the pour.
Is the Philips HD9395 sulit?
Around ₱3,200 as of August 9, 2026. Check the latest price on Shopee. If it lasts three years, an assumption rather than a published figure, that is about ₱21 a week, for something used every single day.
Against the field: the Asahi EK-175 gets you 1900W and the same Strix control for around ₱1,200 less, without the double wall. The Xiaomi glass kettle matches the wattage for a third of the money, in glass. What this adds over both is the cool-touch body, the filter, and Philips service, and 154 owners rating it 5.0 is the strongest evidence base in the mid-price band.
Who the Philips HD9395 suits
Buy this if you want one kettle that is fast, full-size, safe around children, and backed by a brand with local service. It is the right choice for the largest group of Filipino households.
Skip it if you drink loose-leaf tea or brew pour-over. You want temperature control, and this has none.

If the Philips HD9395 is not right
Want nearly the same speed for less? The Asahi EK-175 is around ₱2,000 with 582 owner ratings behind it. Want preset temperatures for tea? The ZOLELE HK152 has five of them for around ₱2,000.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the outside really stay cool?
That is what the double wall is for. There is an air gap between the stainless inner pot and the outer shell, so the surface you touch stays far below the temperature of the water. It is not room temperature, but it is nowhere near the burn risk of a single-wall stainless kettle, which reaches near-boiling on its outside. With small children in the house it is the single feature worth paying for.
What does the Strix controller do?
Strix is the British company that makes the thermostat inside most quality kettles. It senses steam and cuts power at the boil, and cuts power again if you switch the kettle on empty or lift it off the base mid-boil. The reason it matters is that Philips names it: you know which component is protecting you, rather than trusting an unnamed generic part.
Can I see how much water is inside?
Less easily than on a glass or single-wall kettle, and that is the honest trade for the double wall. You fill using the level markings rather than by looking through the body. Most owners settle into filling to a mark for one round of coffee and stop thinking about it.
How often should I clean the anti-scale filter?
Rinse it every couple of weeks if your tap water is hard, which it is across much of the Philippines. The mesh sits in the spout and catches the flakes that come off the element, so it is doing visible work. Pull it out, rinse under the tap, push it back. Descale the whole kettle with vinegar every month or two on top of that.
