what's the capacity of the kettle? 8 gallons? Doesn't say anywhere I can find.

As I recall, the capacity is 30 quarts. I would be leery of buying from any vendor where this kind of basic information isn't supplied. Not all vendors are created equal. Just because you're buying on amazon doesn't mean anything. People get on here that have gotten their goods from other sources, and they aren't necessarily very connected to the company whose goods they're selling. So be sure to look very closely at all the details of your potential transaction, because you might be getting into a bad deal. Sorry to go on forever about this, but the fact that information this basic isn't supplied raises major red flags with me.

Stand says it is 1500 W. I've had other, more expensive kettles and they were no faster at heating the water. It is very fast.

I think along the way somewhere I read it was one and a half gallons. But taking into account the filter and feed tube I doubt that its much more than a gallon capacity. I know with mine set at high would run around 8 -10 on a full tank. The only way to know for sure would be to measure the water you put in it. But since mine died on me I cant do that for you. Hope this is some help.

Sorry, I have no idea...am just enjoying using this wonderful kettle - so much better than all those used by my family before ;)

1500 watts. I would not recommend this kettle. Sometimes the auto shutoff does not work.

I think the basket is short for the volume of the kettle. It takes 3 gallons of water before it hits the bottom of the basket. The basket should be close to the bottom of the kettle for full capacity. The basket is to short.

I don't think you can find one. I came up empty handed in my search. On person somehow stretched an empty tea bag across the spout in order to make it shut off automatically. It needs some back pressure to make it work. I took things apart and discovered that. I had trashed mine not knowing that was what made the kettle shut off. Sorry I am not of much help.

I see someone responded "1 quart". I measured it and it holds 8 cups of water easily = 2 quart

Sorry, i don't know as i always fill it to 8 cups. If you (haven't) purchased it yet, IMO, it's not worth the money. The handle design can get you burned...

800ml fills it to overflowing. Realistic capacity (with enough room for the stopper/lid) is about 650ml or 21.5 oz.

Don't do it! It will either wreck the heating element or wreck the mechanism that allows it to auto switch off once it's boiled and it will kill the kettle. The minimum fill is 0.75l , which is about 2 mugs worth. Although I complained it's higher than my old kettle it's not all that bad.

Never tried to fill to find max liquid capacity,sorry. A quesstimate would be 2 qts.

Hello - I measured the capacity from filling each pot up to the top row of the handle rivets. The '8 quart' took only 7 qts, the '12' took 10 qts, the '16' took 13 qts, and the '20' took 18 qts. Still useful for stock making.

I haven't measured but I would say 8 oz. It's small. In hind sight I would have bought a copper pitcher to keep on my desk.

I have no idea and the carton it came in is gone. It is a good kettle though just what I needed

I just filled my tea pot where I feel it would be safe and not too full. Measured it out and it was 700mls. A 8oz cup is 240mls so 2cups is 480mls and so on. At least 3 8oz cups would work.

The kettle holds about 6-1/2 cups of water. For a full pot allow 7 minutes to boil. After 20 minutes the water is still piping hot. Great little pot!
