I live with my grandma and she has carers.. They fill the damn kettle to the brim to make 1 cup. This Kettle has saved me so much money… legit £100s. It has a low capacity 2.5 mugs? Needs refilling every time its used. I LOVE IT!.. Clean waters a bonus. I reset the filter timer 3 times before I change it. 1. Because i’m tight as muck. 2. Because it tastes good to me 🙂

I’ve been using the Russell Hobbs 22851 Brita Filter Kettle for two months, and it’s been absolutely fantastic in terms of performance.
🔹 What I Love: ✔ Brita Filtration Works Brilliantly – Water tastes cleaner and fresher, with no limescale buildup. ✔ Fast Boiling (3000W Power) – Boils quickly, perfect for busy mornings. ✔ Illuminated Design – The blue LED while boiling looks sleek and modern. ✔ 1.5L Capacity – Holds enough water for multiple cups, but isn’t too bulky. ✔ Easy to Use & Fill – Lightweight and pours smoothly without spills.
🔹 Why 4 Stars Instead of 5? ➖ Plastic Build – Feels sturdy, but I wish it were stainless steel for a more premium feel.
✅ Final Verdict: If you’re looking for a fast-boiling kettle with a great water filter, this is a brilliant choice! The Brita filter truly makes a difference in water taste, and the kettle itself is efficient and stylish.
💡 Pro Tip: Change the Brita Maxtra+ filter every month for the best performance.
⭐ 4/5 – Excellent Kettle, but a Stainless Steel Option Would Be Even Better!

The BRITA filter sounds nice in theory, but if you haven’t used one before (as I hadn’t), you should be aware just how much this will increase the time it takes to make a drink. No longer can you just throw the water in the kettle and turn it on. You have to wait idly by it while the water trickles through the filter. If that’s fine by you, then great. For me, I’d rather have a normal kettle, and just pour pre-filtered water in.
The worst part though may be the capacity. Something I didn’t think would be a problem, since this is a 1.5L kettle. Right? Wrong. The product title is misleading. It says 1.5L, but the product DESCRIPTION says 1L, with a 0.5L hopper. That doesn’t count. If you are making tea for more than three people at a time, you’re going to need to run it a few times, and that means waiting for it to trickle slowly through the filter every single time. If you host people regularly, this is not the right kettle for the occasion.
Despite my complaints, it is a perfectly serviceable kettle. If the low capacity and slow prep time aren’t a problem for you, you’ll probably find this kettle to be completely fine. For myself, I can’t help feeling like I made a mistake.

Excellent filter kettle. Looks good but only filters a mug at a time. This is fine when filter is new but you have to wait for the second cup to filter.

Vattenkokare med kalkfilter. Nu finns filter som tillför magnesium. Fungerar bra. Lättare än glasbehållare.

Excellent product I have had mine for 3 years and now it’s packed up, however it’s lasted 3 times longer than most of the kettles, I’ve had in the past. I have placed an order for a 2nd one to replace the one I’ve had for 3 years, this is a really good pressent/gift for someone!

It’s a bit small and water takes time to filter through.

La bouilloire est arrivée avec une prise US non spécifiée dans le descriptif de l’appareil. Pas vraiment honnête de la part du vendeur. Le produit est bien alors allez l’acheter chez un autre vendeur et posé la question du type de prise avant de commander.

I ordered my kettle July 2020 and only now is it going in the blink! Simply the most rugged kettle I have ever owned. Don’t get me wrong the little plastic tab to lift the top broke a few months after buying it, but I just filled through the spout and never used the Brita cartridges so I just used it for many years without fault. Even the blue LED in the water never blew out! It’s now in the blink as the round base that the kettle slits into that electrical connection is finally I think giving up. But after 6 years of extreme family use can’t fault it. I will 100% buy another one soon!

The Brita kettle has proven to be a reliable addition to my kitchen, offering a convenient blend of functionality and design. is particularly beneficial for those in areas with hard water, as it helps reduce limescale buildup, ultimately prolonging the kettle’s lifespan.
The sleek and modern design of the kettle is aesthetically pleasing, seamlessly fitting into kitchen. The build quality is commendable, with durable materials that feel sturdy and well-crafted. The handle is ergonomically designed, providing a comfortable grip during use.
The heating performance is impressive, bringing water to a boil swiftly. The automatic shut-off function adds a layer of safety, giving me peace of mind when multitasking in the kitchen. The noise level during operation is relatively low, a feature appreciated during early mornings or late nights when a loud kettle can be disruptive.
The only drawback I’ve encountered is the occasional need to replace the filter, which adds to the overall cost of ownership. However, considering the benefits in terms of water quality and kettle longevity, it’s a trade-off worthwhile.
In conclusion, the Brita kettle stands out as a reliable and stylish appliance that goes beyond the standard functionality. Its water filtration system sets it apart in the market, making it a solid investment for those seeking a high-quality kettle with added water-purifying benefits. I also love how you can boil while water is still filtering
