“Got this as a replacement kettle, cost-effective for size and light-up feature. I have had this now for many months, it is used daily for cups of tea and boiling water as required, and I have had no issues with it so far. The spout is easy to pour from so no drips, and the lid flips open, so allows for quick and easy fill. A lovely item sits on a swivel base so can point to left or right to fit in with your kitchen requirements. I would personally buy it again”.

“I ordered this to replace my previous Morphy Richards kettle that I’d had for 12 years. I’ve had to wait for 3 months to receive it, but I’m glad I didn’t cancel my order because I’m very happy with this new one. It boils quickly and is very easy to use and handle. It is quite noisy, but on the positive side this is a good thing because at least you know when it has boiled!”.

“We tried many kettles at the office and at home over the years and to be honest this is the only one that is worth buying. This is because it is safe, robust, fast and pleasant to use.
