Technical details
Compact travel kettle, two cups included
This stainless steel travel kettle holds 0.5 liters, just enough for two proper cups of tea. It comes with two nesting cups that tuck right inside, so you pack one thing and have everything you need. The plug is US standard. Designed to fit carry-on luggage rules, it is built for hotel rooms, not for boiling water for a crowd. If you want something larger for home, have a look at our full collection of stainless steel kettles.
The benefit
Your morning tea, wherever you land
Hold on now, let me tell you something. There is nothing sadder than a hotel room with a sad little coffee machine and zero options for a decent cup of tea. This mini travel kettle changes that. You unpack, you boil, you breathe. Two cups, half a liter, and suddenly a strange room feels a little more like yours. That, sweetheart, is worth packing.
Why it works
Small stainless steel kettle, big common sense
Stainless steel, mind you, not some flimsy plastic thing that smells funny after one trip. The two cups nest right inside the kettle, so you are not hunting for lids at the bottom of your bag. It clears carry-on rules, it uses a standard US plug, and it holds exactly 0.5 liters. Between you and me, whoever designed this thought it through properly. And that is not something I say lightly.
Picture this
Kettle on, curtains open, tea ready
You set it on the desk, fill it to the line, and while it heats up you pull back the curtains on whatever city you landed in. By the time you have found your tea bags, it is done. You pour into one of the little cups, sit on the edge of the bed, and just for a moment, the trip is yours. Well now, that is a good morning.
FAQ
Your questions, answered honestly
How many cups does this travel kettle actually make?
It holds 0.5 liters, which is right for two cups. Two cups are also included in the box, nesting inside the kettle, so you have everything you need without packing anything extra.
Will this kettle fit in my carry-on bag?
Yes, dear, that is exactly the point. It is sized to clear standard carry-on rules. Pack it, forget about it, and find it waiting for you when you arrive.
What plug does it use? Will it work in the US?
It comes with a standard US plug, so no adapter needed at home. If you are traveling internationally, you will want to check local voltage and bring your own adapter.
What is it made of? Is it safe for boiling water?
The kettle is made of stainless steel, which is a solid, no-nonsense choice for boiling water. No plastic smell, no funny taste. Just water, heat, and your tea.
Does it come with cups, or do I need to buy those separately?
Two cups are included and they nest right inside the kettle. You unpack one item and you already have your cups. Nothing to buy separately, nothing to forget at home.

What are your delivery times?
Orders are processed within 1 to 3 business days, and US delivery usually takes 5 to 12 business days. You will receive tracking by email as soon as your order ships.
How can I track my order?
As soon as your order ships, you receive an email with your tracking number and a link to follow the delivery in real time.
Which teapot do you recommend for a beginner?
For beginners we often recommend a ceramic or glass teapot: easy to use, easy to clean, and they suit every kind of tea while you find your favorites.
How do I choose the right teapot size?
It depends on your habits. For one person, 10 to 17 oz is ideal. For a couple, aim for 20 to 34 oz, and for families or hosting, 34 oz and up.
Can I use the same teapot for different teas?
You can, but we recommend dedicated teapots for strong teas: unglazed clay and cast iron keep a memory of the tea. Glass, porcelain and stainless steel stay neutral between teas.
Do you offer a warranty on your products?
Yes, all our products are guaranteed for 1 year against manufacturing defects, on top of the 30-day money-back guarantee.
Can I return an item if I am not satisfied?
Absolutely. We offer a 30-day return policy: if a product does not suit you, email teatime@luluteapot.com and we will make it right.
