Fino
Fino doesn't pitch plastic-free, but its stovetop gooseneck kettle lands there on the strength of a simple design: the entire water path is 18/8 steel, and the only plastic is a bakelite handle and knob that never touch water. Plastic is confined to the heat-insulating grip, which is exactly the spot where you'd expect a non-metal part on a stovetop kettle. Nothing in the brew path is plastic, and they don't need to market around it.
How clear are their specs?
Straightforward - 18/8 steel water path with a bakelite handle, all of it visible and named. No coatings or liners to disclose.
