    Nicely-Designed, Well-Crafted Kettle

    Clean lines, easy operation, lime doesn't accumulate, nice stainless steel-design, little plastic. We use multiple times daily and are very happy with the purchase (also own a few other small Breville appliances (microwave, pizza oven). The cord can be hidden/shortened with the under base hideaway as shown in images that I've attached.

    Excellent Quality, Fast Heating, and Easy to Use

    I’m very happy with this Breville kettle. It feels solid and well-made, heats water quickly, and the controls are straightforward. The different temperature settings are especially useful for preparing tea and French press coffee without overheating the water. I also appreciate the large capacity and the keep-warm feature, which saves me from having to reheat the water when I want another cup. The stainless-steel design looks sleek on the countertop, and the soft-opening lid and comfortable handle make it easy to use and pour. It is more expensive than a basic kettle, but the quality, convenience, and performance make it worth the investment. I would definitely recommend it.

    Surprisingly good, chalk resistant.

    This item was expensive and it does its job very well on a daily basis. But what I noticed is there’s never chalk or calcium on the bottom. We always use filtered water and we always had chalk every several weeks. It was super hard to get rid of it. On this machine, there’s nothing. Looks absolutely like day one.Just look at the picture. I never used descale or vinegar.

    Fantastic! Temped every setting with a thermometer and it's spot on, within +/- 2 degrees. Also, solid and esthetic construction.
