Portable Collapsible Kettles

Boil Hot Water Anywhere with the Pack-Away Kettle

— August 11, 2011 — Lifestyle
Anyone who wants to have their own personal teapot, but can't carry it due to its size can now be thankful that the Pack-Away Kettle has been invented.

Normally, a teapot is the last thing just about anyone expected to see as a travel-friendly item; but it looks like that’s about to change with the Pack-Away Kettle. This is a collapsible kettle that’s perfect for camping trips or any adventure that might make getting hot water difficult. It’s also cool that portability in this case doesn’t sacrifice function at all. This can boil up to 1.1 liters of water each time. If you’re not using it, it’ll shrink down to a respectable size. This can be put over a gas, electric or an induction stove.
