Cleaning and maintaining a collapsible electric kettle is easier than you might think. The simple design with fewer parts means there are fewer places where dirt and grime can build up. Most collapsible electric kettles are made from silicone and stainless steel, which are both easy to clean and resistant to stains and odors. Regular cleaning prevents mineral deposits from building up, especially if you live in an area with hard water. It’s important to avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, as these can damage the silicone or stainless steel surface.
