Pros and cons
✓ Pros

- Nothing plastic touching the water, which is the usual complaint about cheap kettles
✗ Cons
- Glass gets hot to touch and will break if knocked off a counter
- Limescale shows through clear glass, so it needs descaling to stay presentable
- No temperature presets and no published safety-cutout brand
The Xiaomi glass kettle is the value outlier in our kettle coverage: 2200W and a full 1.7L for around ₱1,100, which is the fastest wattage here at the lowest price. The body is borosilicate glass.
How well does it work?
2200W matches the Philips HD9395 at the top of the speed table, and it is doing that at roughly a third of the price. On a full 1.7L, that is a genuinely quick boil.
The borosilicate glass body earns its place for two reasons. First, it is the glass used in lab equipment and oven-safe cookware because it barely expands when heated, so it takes the shock of boiling water. Second, and more useful day to day, you can see inside. You know the water level, and you know how clean the kettle actually is, which almost nobody checks in a steel kettle.
It also settles the plastic question. Nothing plastic is in contact with the water, which is the standard worry about cheap kettles.
What are the limits?
It gets hot. Glass conducts heat and there is no insulating gap, so the body is hot while boiling, exactly like a single-wall steel kettle. This is not the choice for a kitchen with toddlers.
It breaks. Borosilicate survives heat, not impact. A knock off the counter onto tile ends it, where a steel kettle would dent.
Limescale is visible. The scale forms in every kettle; in glass you have to look at it. Monthly descaling with vinegar keeps it clear, and in hard-water areas that is a real habit rather than an occasional chore.
No named safety cutout. Xiaomi does not state a controller brand the way Philips and Asahi do.
Is the Xiaomi Glass Kettle sulit?
Around ₱1,100 as of August 9, 2026. Check the latest price on Shopee. It is the cheapest kettle in our coverage and the joint-fastest, which is an unusual combination and the reason it ranks where it does. 329 owners rating it 4.9, with over a thousand sold, says it holds up in practice.
The honest framing: you are getting speed and capacity for very little, and paying for it in heat, fragility, and an unnamed safety part. For a careful household on a budget, that is a good trade.
Who the Xiaomi Glass Kettle suits
Buy this if you want the fastest boil for the least money, your kitchen is not full of small children, and you will actually descale it. It is the right choice for a couple, a condo, or a first kitchen.
Skip it if there are toddlers around, or if things get knocked over in your house.

If the Xiaomi Glass Kettle is not right
Want the same speed with a cool-touch body and a named cutout? The Philips HD9395/90 is around ₱3,200. Want stainless and hundreds more owner ratings for a little more? The Asahi EK-175 is around ₱2,000.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is borosilicate glass safe for boiling water?
Yes, that is what it is for. Borosilicate is the glass used in laboratory glassware and heat-resistant cookware because it expands very little when heated, so it handles the shock of boiling without cracking the way ordinary glass would. What it does not handle is impact: it chips and breaks if knocked off a counter.
Why choose glass over stainless steel?
Two reasons. You can see the water level and, more usefully, you can see how clean the inside actually is, which most people never check in a steel kettle. And nothing plastic contacts the water, which is the common worry with cheap kettles that use a plastic body or a plastic lid rim. The trade is heat and fragility.
Does limescale show up worse in glass?
It shows more, which is a fair complaint and also an honest one. The scale is there in a steel kettle too, you just cannot see it. Descale monthly with white vinegar or citric acid and it stays clear. In areas of the Philippines with hard tap water, expect that to be a real monthly habit rather than an occasional one.
Is it hot to touch while boiling?
Yes. Glass conducts heat readily and there is no insulating air gap, so the body gets hot in the same way a single-wall stainless kettle does. Use the handle, keep it back from the edge, and think twice if there are toddlers in the kitchen. The cool-touch options here are the Philips and the Imarflex.
