Canadian tea drinker checking in. I've used an electric kettle all my life and don't see what the problem is... Electric kettles are common here even though we use 110V power. I've never timed it, but I think they can bring cold water to a boil in maybe 3 minutes, which is okay with me. If electric kettles are rare in the States then I think it's because of a cultural difference, not because of the mains voltage. Sure it would be convenient if kettles boiled faster, but I don't think it makes that much of a difference.
