Stunning, fast but not so quiet this time.

Having had this exact model before, which was excellent - I thought it best to stick to what I already knew was good. It boils fast, looks great BUT this one is no where near as quiet as my last one - hence four stars. My previous kettle (owned for 3 years) still works, but the lid stopped opening. The finish on the kettle is lovely - it's brushed steel grey that has a glow of lilac in certain light - it's really smart. Stainless steel - but there are plastic view windows and internal level markers - please Russell Hobbs, see if you can find an alternative - plastic baaad!Read full review...

Very dishonest description. Not grey but blue. Twice a noisy as RH 30 year old kettle

I am amazed the description is 100% inaccurate. The colour is very dak blue/purple (see other reviews) do you have a purple/blue kitchen?
I did a Quiet Boil test with my 30+ year old Russell Hobs kettle and the Luna. Both with 1 lit of water. The Luna with ' Quiet Boil technology' could be heard 2 rooms away. The 30+ year old R Hobbs kettle could only be heard in the same room. The Lune was just seconds quicker to boil.
So no new advances in over 30 years by Russell Hobs except the stramlined design and totally false claims about describtion!

A Very Good Kettle, BUT....

This is a very good kettle but with one drawback - the lid on mine will not open until the kettle has cooled down. Fortunately that isn't as big a problem as I initially thought it would be, as it normally has to boil water for only myself and my wife and one fully boiled kettle is ample for the two of us. It usually has plenty of time to cool before we reuse it. For a family needing to boil water in quick succession it could be really annoying, although it can be filled down the spout if necessary..
On the plus side, it's the quietest kettle I've used by quite a long way, boils very quickly, pours well and is comfortable to use.
I would recommend this kettle as long as you can live with the lid issue. Maybe the manufacturers designed the lid as a safety (non scalding) feature!

Good looking and efficient - also light for its size

It’s the same brand and version of the kettle we’ve had for the last eleven or so years only more good looking! It’s fairly light, flip lid makes it easy to fill and is a fast, quiet boiler. The glass panel up the side with level markings is very clear so you can judge just how much water you do actually want to boil! Read full review...

Fast boil and good design

I really like the look of this kettle. It’s very light and is easy to fill. The 1-3 cup markers are a great help in only using the water you need. I did find the first few cups of tea tasted funny even though I had filled it right up and boiled it twice before using it, but it’s fine now.Read full review...

GOOD LOOKING

Handsome kettle, easy to use, reasonably rapid boil (but boils for too long before switching off). As for quiet boil: yes, for the first half a dozen times. Now just as noisy as my old Russell Hobbs. Disappointed.Read full review...

Review by Dirk Diggler

They say it is "super quiet" .......... but it sounds more like Boeing 747 revving up to fly to Benidorm!!!
The upside is that this should improve once large amounts of earwax returns to my ear drum canals.

The style is nice & it pours with no dribbles or meandering splashes on the runway.

Nice cup of tea / coffee, but this could be due to the tea bag or coffee granules ...... or possibly because I am Awesome at making hot drinks!

Deep joy ...... I am sure the longer I look at it ....... the more it will become "part of the family"

Quick and quiet

So far so good with it. Easy to fill. It boils a small amount of water in 45 seconds as claimed and is quieter than my previous kettle.

Smart looking kettle

Very pleased with this kettle, it looks good and seems to be as advertised. Only had it for a couple of weeks so early days. Definitely quieter than previous Russel Hobbs kettle. Blue light quite attractive. Boils quickly when only small amount of water in it.
I agree that the colour description as ‘Grey’ is misleading. It’s a dark, metallic blue (like the night sky). The clue is in the name ‘Luna’.
Lifting the kettle and pouring is very comfortable, spout pours well.
