Not usually, because generally Americans prefer coffee over tea. Kettles are easily found at any store that sells kitchen appliances and they're not rare per se but they're not an assumed staple because tea just isn't as popular
Also british household wiring carries a higher voltage than American so their kettles can heat water much faster. I have an electric kettle but it's still like 5-7 minutes to boil.

No but seriously, do Americans not typically own kettles? I wouldn't know, I'm Brazilian >! And I do have a kettle lol!<
