I do remember electric kettles being almost impossible to come by in Colorado, about 20 years ago. Ditto tea pots.

When I was single and on my own I boiled my water in a generic stovetop pot and poured the boiling water into a mug with a teabag or small infuser. These days I have a stovetop kettle and a cast iron tea pot.
