Good points

Good Points

  •   The kettle doesn't have to be tilted much towards the end of pouring which is easy on the wrist.
  •   4 pre-set temperature settings and they're reasonably accurate.
  •   Keep warm function maintains temperature for 4 hours.
  •   Digital temperature display keeps track of the temperature while the kettle boils.
  •   Clear kettle – extremely easy to see water level.
Bad points

Bad Points

  •   Takes 5 seconds to start and there is no immediate indication that heating has started.
  •   Takes over 9 minutes to boil a litre of water.
  •   Metallic lid is too hot to remove immediately after boiling.
  •   No cord storage.
  •   No filter.
  •   Does not switch off when lifted off its base.
  •   During the dry boil test the kettle does not seem to recognise that it is empty and continues to go through the entire boiling cycle, turning off when it indicates it has reached 100°C. However the kettle remains undamaged.
