Bosch TWK3A014 CompactClass Water Kettle, 1.7 liters, Red

Product Information

Rapid Boil System: The 3kW concealed element in this red kettle electric ensures rapid and quiet boiling. Its fast boil technology and silent operation are ideal for the morning rush or entertaining guests. A retro kettle red that's both practical and chic. The Russell Hobbs Emma Bridgewater Kettle is the quietest one we tested. It heats and boils virtually silently, which means you're unlikely to be disturbed if it's used when you're in a call or early in the morning. It's also a treat to look at, with a retro-contemporary design that comes in either a multi-coloured polka dot or a love heart pattern. There's also a matching toaster available, which we really enjoyed testing. The spout of this kettle makes pouring a treat, and the overhead handle is easy to hold and tactile. NON DRIP: With a precision engineered, non-drip spout you don't have to worry about water dripping onto the kettle or your work top, meaning a safer experience for all users.

SAFETY PROTECTIONS: The triple safety feature includes automatic shut-off, overheat and boil-dry protection, and lift switch-off features, while convenient cord storage under the base keeps you and your kettle safe Stainless Steel Durability: Crafted from premium stainless steel, our red kettles electric models resist rust and wear. Easy to clean with a removable limescale filter, this kettle promises enduring performance and effortless operation.

To add one caveat, it should be noted that the Zwilling Enfinigy Pro has an 1,850W heating coil, unlike many of the other kettles on our list, which tend to have 3,000W elements. This means it is naturally slower to boil than its rivals. If you tend to get impatient for your morning cup of tea or coffee, the 3 mins 45 secs it takes the Enfinigy Pro to boil a litre of water may prove a tad too long for your liking. Most kettles have this clearly visible on the exterior but some are more awkwardly placed, such as behind the handle. Kettles with large viewing windows are best if you want to know exactly how much water is in the kettle at any time. Dome-shaped kettles look more like traditional stovetop models. Electric dome kettles often have lift-off lids, which can be a bit more fiddly than flip-top models to use, and these kettles usually have a smaller water capacity. Their handles are often located on top, too. Kettles aren’t the most high-tech of kitchen items, but it’s worth looking out for safety features such as an auto shut-off function – should you accidentally put too little water in the kettle, this will stop it boiling dry. Finally, think about noise. The difference between our quietest and loudest kettles, which measured in at 52 and 63 decibels, is considerable, although everyone’s tolerance to noise is different.

ITEMS DELIVERED: 1 x Bosch Cordless Kettle, 1.5 l stainless steel jug with double walled insulation featuring LED variable temperatures, easy-pour spout, limescale filter and cord storage. verifyErrors }}{{ message }}{{ /verifyErrors }}{{ STAINLESS STEEL KETTLE: Unlike plastic kettles the Dualit Lite kettle features a high quality, polished 304 stainless steel body with canvas white trim. The handle features a soft silicon grip for comfort and lid has a heatproof, easy grip knob to protect users from hot water or steam. Filters that reduce limescale are invaluable if you live in a hard-water area and don’t want to be descaling your kettle on a regular basis.

And we would avoid buying any cheap kettle that has a mains cable connected directly to the jug itself, as the slot-in stand design of most modern kettles is far safer. Other design elements of the Styline we like include its four temperature settings (70°C, 80°C, 90° and boiling), half hour keep warm function, soft-open lid, large viewing window with clear measurement markings and smooth-pouring spout. Finally, when it comes to boil speed, the Styline’s 3,000W heating element means it’s as swift as any of the other similarly powered kettles on our list.
