Great kettle. Boils 1 litre in 2'30". It rotates on it's base which makes it easier to fill and pick up. It has a clear panel on each side to view the water level and the switch illuminates to show it's on. Switches off reasonably quickly when the water reaches boiling point. Much nicer to look at and use than my previous cheap plastic kettle.

Good and looks the part. It's quite loud when boiling.

I like a lot about this kettle. I mean, it's a kettle! And it does exactly what it is supposed to do. No bells or whistles - temperature gauges or keep warm buttons! But if you don't need all that stuff, this is good. Other reviewers have said that that the push button to open the lid is great, but it does sort of only open half way, which seems like a bit of a design fault. So knocking a star off for that! But it boils pretty fast, isn't crazy loud, and looks smart. On the 'looks', like all stainless steel stuff, you do have to keep it clean as marks show up pretty easily, but that doesn't bother me much. It doesn't seem to drip or anything when pouring, which my old one did, so works well in that regard too.

Great quality, sturdy kettle and looks good with my other appliances.

Very happy with this sturdy kettle which I've now had a while. I love the copper finish, as it matches other things in my kitchen. It's a good size too, and the water level gauge is easy to read (which it isn't always). It's even better than the Bosch model it replaced, which I got many years of use out of.

Beautiful Christmas gift for my mum. We got her the toaster too. Both are lightweight and easy to use. The kettle boils quick, doesn’t even take 2 mins to heat up 3 cups of water. We got the copper set, they’re so pretty. The kettle is very tall and it seems like it will last years.

I did a lot of research to buy a kettle; it's pretty confusing from the reviews! My daughter recommended this one as they had had a Bosch for several years. It works well and looks good. I do agree with some of the reviews about the "plastic" smell and slight taste. This has diminshed a lot in the week that I have had it. I think the smell comes from the fact that the pourer is made of plastic (inside is metal). However, the big plus of this for me is that I have found the metal pourers "spit" when finishing pouring; this does not so a positive. I have given it 4 stars and not 5 because the water level indicator IS exremely difficult to read due to the dark interior. The only sure way of getting the water level for me, it looking in the top. I guess no big deal as you have to lift the top to put water in it! Pretty well all the other makes I looked at had a lot of negative reviews and so for me, this was the best. I'm happy with it.

Almost an excellent product. High quality standard of finish, but 3 things prevent a higher grading: - very noisy when boiling. Cannot hear radio in kitchen. Takes a long time to auto switch off - minimum fill level is high compared to other kettles I’ve owned. As a single person this means I potentially waste unused water - most notably, spout is poorly designed. You initially only get a trickle and have to deliberately tilt the kettle considerably further to fill your cup. This makes me very wary of splashing boiling water over myself I’ve had 4 Bosch products before and always been very impressed. Disappointed with this one.
