If all goes well I'll be moving out on my own for the first time this fall, so I've been trying to figure out worthwhile appliances and such to set my sights on. So far I've got:
- Rice cooker for easy cheap meals
- Cold brew maker (I do be drinking it almost daily)
- Sparkling water maker (any non-sodastream recommendations?)
Doesn't have to be kitchen stuff or even an appliance like the stuff above—anything helpful (and general advice) is good!

How so? I got one a few months ago and it works great. Like, not fast enough?

Electric kettles in the US are fine. If it was speed that Americans cared about then they'd all be using induction burners by now to cook. Longer boiling times are not the only thing preventing high uptake. I'm a kettle user BTW.
I like having it next to my desk so I always have hot tea. Seemed easier than adding a stove to the bedroom lol.
Yep, gets water plenty hot real fast!
If fast access to hot water is so important that American voltage becomes an issue, then maybe just splurge on a hot water dispenser.

wrong
Useless in the US because we just don't drink tea that much.
That's it. That's the whole reason. If you need hot water for instant coffee or something just use the microwave. It avoids taking up valuable counter space and won't become part of the waste stream when it breaks after a year.
