The kettle has a low-rated element, so isn't the fastest to boil, although this isn't really a problem. I like that it switches off when the water boils, and that the jug itself lifts free of the base, making it easier to fill and use where you want it. The cable is quite short, which I think might be a regulation nowadays, but the jug coming free from the base stops this being a major problem. The minimum fill (0.5 litre) is more than would be needed for the average cup, so wasting energy. It's a nice-looking kettle, and is fairly small on the worktop. It's a shame that the cable can only 'point' towards the spout when it enters the base, I'd prefer it the opposite end, where the handle is.

It is lightweight and easy for my mother to fill and pour. However, the water comes out under the lid when pouring, so it makes a bit of mess. On the other hand, much better than her larger more traditional kettle and she is pleased with it.

I needed a small kettle for tea making facilities in a guest bedroom. I have tried this one out and as stated in previous reviews it is a little slower than more powerful models but perfectly adequate for my purpose. It does spill when pouring if not used carefully but with care is fine.

This is an 850watt kettle, which has a better performance than I expected. I bought it for use in our motorhome, when we are off-grid and using our 1000 watt inverter. It boils in around 6 1/2 minutes when full, so I guess it will boil less volume slightly quicker. It's perfect for what I need. I have reviewed it on the basis that it boils water quickly for a product that only uses a mere 850 watts. If you need a kettle that boils in 2 minutes... this isn't the one for you.

I knew from the product description that it wasn't a quick boiler, but its power consumption was correspondingly low as well; good for the electric bill and the environment. Only time will tell as to the life of the jugs, but it's working totally as I envisaged and I am delighted with it!
