The product, in the report: Chefman Custom-Temp 1.8L Electric Kettle which is sold at Costco. Link to the product: https://www.costco.com/p/-/chefman-custom-temp-18l-electric-kettle/4000337737

I purchased a Chefman Electric Tea Kettle from Costco, and noticed within one year that the plastic mesh which is by the sprout had disintegrated so that plastic pieces were floating in the boiled water. It’s highly likely our family drank microplastics and pieces of the plastic mesh without realizing it. This is dangerous for consumers. I reported this to Chefman customer service on May 5, 2026 and did not hear back from their customer service until June 23, a wait time of over 7 weeks for something that is defective design for their products, and dangerous for customers. This electric tea kettle should be recalled, and Chefman should change out the plastic mesh to metal/stainless steel.

The company’s comments, in its own words

(6/30/2026) Chefman: The filter material used in the kettle has met or exceeded the requirements set forth by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for materials in contact with liquids. The material used is also rated for temperature exposures over 320 degrees F, which is significantly higher than the 212F boiling point of water. Therefore, the material could not have “melted” as a result of normal use and exposure to temperatures consistent with boiling water. It is possible that the use of harsh cleaning pads or cleaning agents could have damaged the filter during continued product cleaning or maintenance. This is why Chefman warns of hazards associated with the use of harsh cleaning materials and tells customers in the product’s User Guide not to use such materials during any cleaning process.

Product Safety Complaint Chefman Power Infusion Plus 1.8L Electric Kettle RJ11-18-TI-KW
I am submitting this report to document a serious product safety concern involving the above-referenced electric kettle.
Summary of Incidents Unit 1 After approximately two weeks of normal use, the kettle began emitting a noticeable electrical burning odor. The unit was returned and replaced through an exchange. Unit 2 Replacement Within approximately one week of use, the kettle partially melted and again emitted a strong electrical smoke odor, indicating overheating or potential internal electrical failure. Safety Risk These conditions presented a significant fire hazard. The situation required active monitoring to prevent escalation. A fire may have occurred had the unit been left unattended. Electrical System Verification: To rule out external causes, the residence electrical system was inspected by maintenance personnel. All outlets, including the GFCI outlet used, and the breaker panel were tested and found to be functioning properly. The GFCI outlet did not trip during either incident. Conclusion: Based on two separate failures under normal operating conditions and verification of a properly functioning electrical system, this appears to be a potential product defect and safety risk rather than an isolated environmental issue. Request: I recommend investigation into this model for potential overheating or electrical failure risks. I am requesting appropriate follow-up, including documentation of this complaint and any corrective actions.
UPDATED ON 4/10/2026: [As I had stated in my original report, we had our outlets and breaker box check by professional maintenance. All electrical outlets are working properly. The manufacturer of the product did not address the defect in the rapid heating coil. The pictures clearly shows that melting was from that plastic surrounding the heating coil. My recommendation for the manufacture is to not use plastic, but a material that does not melt. ]

The company’s comments, in its own words

(2/19/2026) Chefman: The kettle has met all National and Internation safety and compliance requirements. And along with various materials and stress analysis tests, the kettle uses Borosilicate glass. Such glass is subjected to less thermal stress and can withstand temperature differentials of about 330 °F without fracturing. And since the boiling temperature of water is 212F, it is unlikely that the glass simply shattered for no reason.

(1/30/2026) Chefman: The kettle is both ETL certified for electrical safety, as well as FDA approved for materials in contact with liquids. There is no hazard associated with the use of this product. The stainless-steel base of the kettle is not coated with any surface material. Rather the unit utilizes a SUS 304 stainless-steel base that will not chip or degrade over time. The user should follow the product’s User Guide for both cleaning and descaling instructions. This will ensure that no hard water deposits will accumulate and potentially become visible is the kettle water.

The product, in the report: Chefman Electric Tea Kettle infused attached, glass with black handle that sit on a heating plate. I do not have the dimensions

Chefman Electric Tea Kettle was purchased in about 10 months ago. We started using the product about March 2025. Early October 2025 me & family started noticing some floating inside the water of the electric Chefman tea kettle. I pour the water out, cleaned and rinse the tea kettle out and added fresh water inside the tea kettle. I turned the electric kettle on after the tea kettle turned off after heating water. I attempted to pour the hot water in a mug then I noticed something floating in the water again then I realized it was metal shaving coming off the metal plate inside the Chefman Electric Tea Kettle. We been using thie Chefman Electric Tea Kettle for months and at the time we didn’t realize we have been drinking metal shaving along with our tea, no telling how long this been going on. Most people who owns a similar product isn’t aware of the problem because after the water is heated most people add their tea bag to the mug a pour the heated water in the mug. I’ve sent out multiple emails (3 or 4) to the company Chefman and I didn’t get any reply from live person regarding my complaint. This product is a health hazard to the consumers. I reported my complaint to the retail store that I purchased from.

The product, in the report: Chefman. Black base. Electric kettle

I bought a chefman 1 L hot water kettle from Walmart a few months ago. Ive only recently noticed that water left in it is warm to touch even hours after using it. If I unplug it, the water cools. Im concerned because there seems to be a positive source of energy being used, even if the kettle is not activated. Unfortunately I dont have the box. But it is a model RJ1110GMRLWM electric kettle Made in China access code 301351G. Date code 2519.

The company’s comments, in its own words

(12/4/2025) Chefman: The Chefman RJ11-10-GMRL WM electric kettle utilizes a bi-metallic switch (mechanical switch) for safety. Once pushed, the switch will be triggered by the heat and stream of the heating process, ultimately shutting the kettle off after it reaches boiling. This is normal and in accordance with the product’s ETL electrical safety certification. Note that the carafe’s glass and stainless-steel construction ensures that the water remains hot even after the unit stops boiling. This is the insulation of the carafe itself, not the unit continuing to generate energy. After a period of time, the water and kettle itself will cool down. But the shutting off of the kettle does not mean the unit’s water will become room temperature or cold quickly. The description given previously is not a malfunction or safety hazard. Rather it is the kettle’s normal operating procedure.

I recently discovered that the spout filter inside the kettle “Chefman Custom-Temp 1.8L Electric Kettle”, which is designed to prevent limescale or debris, has completely disintegrated. I noticed small plastic fragments floating in the boiled water, and when I touched the filter with my fingers, it crumbled and broke into ashes easily, indicating that it is made of plastic or synthetic fiber rather than metal. I can’t confirm the amount of the disintegrated mesh my family have ingested.

The product, in the report: Chefman Electric Kettle, Model #RJ11-17-TI; metal and clear plastic in color and composition, black plastic base; the unit is about 12-14” tall. It appears to be an induction heating kettle.

Part of the lid of the electric kettle became detached from the rest of the lid, allowing vapor from the boiling water to escape directly above the kettle. The vapor column is not visible and is extremely hot. It’s not clear that the portion of the lid that broke off can be replaced because there are a number of small plastic pieces that apparently connected the pieces together are broken.

The product, in the report: Chefman Electric Hot Water Pot Urn w/ Auto & Manual Dispense Buttons, Safety Lock, Instant Heating for Coffee & Tea, Auto-Shutoff/Boil Dry Protection, Insulated Stainless Steel, 5.3L/5.6 Qt/30+ Cups It is mostly stainless steel with a black plastic top. It has a dispense button on top, one right behind the spout, and a manual pump on top. Bought on Amazon.

I was using a brand-new Chefman Electric Hot Water Pot Urn that has an auto-dispense feature. The manual pump got stuck, and that somehow triggered the automatic pump. Boiling hot water started pouring out of the urn and quickly overflowed the cup, and started splashing everywhere, including on the floor and on my skin. None of the buttons did anything, and the manual pump remained stuck. I pulled out the plug and the urn stopped spilling water. I tried it again the next day and was able to reproduce the issue.

The product, in the report: Electric tea kettle, Chefman RJ11-17-TI with glass vessel and black base station

After using the product per instructions for a few weeks, the automatic shut off switch gradually became less reliable.
At this point, the unit fails to turn off the heat after the water comes to a boil. The switch movement feels “gummy” and a slight plastic odor is noticed after carefully allowing the device to continue to fail.
It was likely a design error for the operator activation switch and the boiling water stop function to be within the same mechanical movement.
