For those who live in Japan or are travelling here right now!
Left: Kashimura -World Pot 2, Multi-Voltage Electric Kettle- TI-39
Right: Nakabayashi -Collapsible Multi-Voltage Electric Kettle- MBE-TK04
I highly recommend bringing your travel kettle when travelling both domestically and internationally. Not all hotels and Airbnbs provide kettles, and some only provide coffee makers. Bringing your own kettle is great way to ensure cleanliness and to save money amid rising prices. Japanese manufacturers have a long history for developing products to meet customer's needs because people often bring electric kettles not only for tea and coffee, but also for instant soup and instant noodles. You can find a variety of high-quality travel kettles at electronics stores in Japan. Here are some comparisons between the long-selling product “Kashimura TI-39” and the newly released “ Nakabayashi MBE-TK04."
TI-39: W15.0×D9.0×H17.5cm (W5.9×D3.5×H6.8 inch)
MBE-TK04:
When in use W19.5×D12.0×H17.8cm (W7.6×D4.7×H7.0 inch)
When collapsed W14.5×D12.0×H8.0cm (W5.7×D4.7×H3.1 inch)
I also recommend
Shupatto - compact foldable reusable bags by Marna
https://www.shupatto.com/en/
better than any other reusable bags
especially for people who want to keep their belongings light and to be free from folding thick reusable bags over and over again.
Vacuum Bottles with one-push opening by Tiger
examples: discontinued products MCX-A352/A502/A602 https://www.tiger-corporation.com/en/jpn/product/vacuum-insulated-products/mcx-a2/
easy to open with one hand
you can't go back to using anything else
better than THERMOS visit a store and try it for yourself
