Saki Luna Precision Electric Kettle
A gooseneck-free electric kettle with a fully stainless water path including the lid - one of the few marketed on no plastic touching the water. The lid gasket material is undisclosed, the one caveat.
The verdict: No-contact plastic
The interior, the lid (including its underside), and the spout are 304 stainless steel, so no plastic contacts the water - Saki markets it as "plastic-free, no plastic touches your water," and multiple retailers plus the Amazon listing confirm the all-steel interior and steel lid. The plastic that exists is confined to the exterior base and the electronics/display, which never touch the water. The one thing Saki does not disclose is the lid seal/gasket material: like almost every electric kettle it very likely uses a silicone gasket, which would make it silicone-only for anyone strictly avoiding silicone. Community research (the widely-shared r/PlasticFreeLiving kettle roundup) places that seal on the exterior/upper lid rim - in the steam path, isolated from the boiling-water body - rather than submerged at the base like Fellow's probe seal. We couldn't confirm the part directly, so treat it as an open question, but that placement is the favorable case.

What it's made of
| Part | Material | Food contact |
|---|---|---|
| interior / inner wall | Stainless Steel 304 / 18-8 | Yes primary 🔥 |
| lid and lid underside steel lid confirmed by manufacturer and multiple retailer listings - the part most "steel" kettles make of plastic | Stainless Steel 304 / 18-8 | Yes incidental 🔥 |
| spout | Stainless Steel 304 / 18-8 | Yes primary 🔥 |
| base / heating unit / electronics housing exterior base with the LCD/controls; water sits in the steel chamber above it, not in the base | Plastic other / unspecified | No |
A 1.75L variable-temperature electric kettle with temperature presets, keep-warm, and boil-dry protection. It is a standard-spout kettle, not a gooseneck, and Saki positions it directly at the plastic-free / non-toxic market with a published migration lab report to back the claim.
Pros
- Stainless water path including the lid underside - the usual hidden plastic is steel here
- 304 stainless interior, BPA-free, marketed as no plastic touching the water
- The most-validated brand in the category - Saki publishes an independent LFGB / ISO 17025 migration lab report (heavy metals, PFAS, phthalates, BPA/BPS/BPF all non-detect)
- Variable temperature control, presets, and keep-warm
- Electric convenience without a plastic water reservoir
Cons
- Repeated owner reports of a chemical/adhesive smell on first use - reportedly manufacturing residue that clears after a deep clean and a few boils, not a water-path plastic
- Lid gasket material is not disclosed (likely silicone) - the one unverified water-contact part
- Plastic base/electronics (not in the water path, but it is plastic)
- Not a gooseneck - less ideal for precision pour-over
- Pricey for a kettle
