It was brought for my wife and she loves it because it goes with her toaster

Good value and should be good, but often it won’t turn itself off when it’s boiling.

The kettle is nice but the power cord is ridiculously short to the point that I can’t reach the plug socket without balancing the kettle on a box.

UPDATE:- 3Months after my purchase I had to get in touch with Russell Hobbs who immediately responded and solved my issue with a full refund im happy to say. However, the reason for the refund (pictures supplied) was that I noticed one morning there was a large brown mark in one area and all the way around the power base. On closer inspection I saw it was rust. Water had been slowly leaking from the spout and ran down around the power base causing the rust. I will point out that I fill the kettle once a day for a brew, I’m not a massive tea drinker so only drink a morning brew. I then empty the kettle as I like fresh water every morning. This being said. As its used once a day for a cuppa it rusted quickly.
Received the kettle really quickly. Couldn’t wait to unpack. The first thing I did was fill up and do a boil. The boil only took 3.5 mins and it was full. Sooooo fast! Not noisy either. It is stable on the base, not heavy. The lid comes off and reveals a good size opening to fill. The handle is a nice shape and makes it easy to pour and the spout is a nice size and pours lovely, no drips! I love the style of this kettle, takes me back to my younger years as we had a kettle shaped like this in the 70’s . I’m really pleased I purchased this kettle instead of the norm, jug kettles! I’m blown away how quick it boils. 100% recommend.

The design of this kettle is really lovely (although I will warn you the stainless steel body is a nightmare for showing up fingerprints and dirt!). The switch on the side has a small white light which indiactes when the kettle is boiling. The time to boil is reasonably quick; when filling the kettle to the minimum line it took under a minute to boil which in comparison to kettles I’ve used in the past is reasonbly fast. The kettle has a nice big round base making it very stable and reduces any risk of accidently knocking it over. The weight of it is just perfect for me; not too heavy that it’s difficult to lift but heavy enough that you can tell it’s made of good quality materials. The kettle has a removable anti-scale filter inside which reduces any limescale in the kettle. This is very easy to access and keep clean. As you’d expect from a well-known brand this is a great and reliable kettle which I would highly recommend.

This is a great looking kettle, the stainless steel is clean looking and fits nicely into my kitchen. I’m a huge fan of the quick boil setting, I often am only boiling enough water for one cup and it’s super speedy! It can be a bit noisy but it’s a kettle so I don’t mind that.
The only downfall is that the handle sits directly above the lid. So if you want to refill it after you’ve recently boiled it you can’t hold the handle as you get covered in steam, not great for cleaning or if you realise you need to refill & boil more water.
Otherwise this is a really great kettle and the speed boil option is a game changer.

I saw this kettle on Russell Hobbs website and it was just what we were looking for – solid handle, sensible large lid and a really nice pouring spout. It’s a very handsome kettle and we are delighted with it.
