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](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luna-electric-kettle) that’s perfect for [camping trips](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/firetower-ti) 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](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gooseneck-kettles). ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.4/10 - Popularity: 10% | Activity: 53% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Drinking](https://www.trendhunter.com/drinking) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Collapsible Kitchen Appliances:** There is a growing trend in the development of collapsible kitchen appliances that offer convenience and portability. - **Adventure-friendly Gadgets:** The market for adventure-friendly gadgets, such as collapsible kettles, is on the rise as more people engage in outdoor activities. - **Compact Travel Accessories:** Consumers are seeking compact and space-saving travel accessories, like the Pack-Away Kettle, that offer functionality without sacrificing convenience. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Outdoor Recreation:** The outdoor recreation industry can explore opportunities to develop and market collapsible kettles and other adventure-friendly gadgets. - **Kitchen Appliance:** The kitchen appliance industry can capitalize on the trend of collapsible kitchen appliances by developing innovative and compact products that cater to the needs of travelers and outdoor enthusiasts. - **Travel and Leisure:** The travel and leisure industry can tap into the demand for compact and portable accessories by integrating collapsible kettles and similar products into their offerings. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Tumbler-Inspired Kettles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/electric-travel-kettle.md) - [Portable Electric Pots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/portable-electric-pot.md) - [Modular Travel Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tetra.md) - [Camping-Friendly Compact Cookware](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yunsoo-choi.md) - [Flatpack Outdoor Coffee Makers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brutek-collapsible-pour-over.md) - [Collapsible Microwave Appliances](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/foldable-microwave.md) - [Micro-Sized Backpacker Fire Pits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/antarcti-gas-fire-pit.md) - [Digital Tea Brewing Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bota-bottle.md) - [Stacked Tea Kettle Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stacked-tea-kettle.md)
