Electric kettles have been available at every American ~~supermarket~~ superstore for literal decades.

Yes they aren't ubiquitous here in the way they are in the UK and elsewhere, but they're absolutely not a rarity at all.

Sincerely, somebody who has been using an electric kettle for almost two decades.

edit: wrong word. I meant places like Walmart, not places like Safeway.

I never once saw an electric kettle until I was an adult. Then again, I'm from Idaho.
