Pros & Cons
Pro: - good style, good volume, variable temperature, better on/off switch Cons: - water level almost impossible to ascertain with risk of overfilling and hence boiling over. Lid difficult to flip open, usually requires finger to drag it a bit beyond initial seal. The variable temperature setting is a lever, so can be knocked. Basis of opinion. This kettle replaces the previous version we had which started to have issues. That version had a) blue illuminated water level so easy to see b) temperature was set on handle with digital display in blue c) lid was easier to flip open. I accept that there are but 2 kettles of 1.7 l capacity with variable temperature setting - the other being SMEG that has the same issues as above. Bottom line? - This new Kitchenaid design kettle is 3 steps backwards - water level, lid, temperature setting control. When this kettle goes we will not be replacing like for like but look around. The whole thing is annoying as it is a very expensive kettle for what it actually does. Message to design teams - change is not always improvement. and change is not a necessity unless there is a design failure, which sadly this is now.

Very nice kettle!
This is a replacement for a similar model we bought years ago. It has a nice balance among other features that we like.

Beautiful looking kettle
Beautifull looking kettle, but the button to press and open the top is difficult to open.
Shirley
Disappointed
Looks smart but after 2 days lid sticks and won’t open, it’s quite flimsy when you look at li for the price
Angela, Shropshire
Massive design fault with lid release catch
Sleek design but for such an expensive kettle you would have thought they could have designed a lid that actually opens when you press the release catch.
Alyn Pearce, York
Very loud ping noise marks this down
Nice looking compact kettle with a steady pour but why the loud alarm noise when you switch it on and when it gets to temperature? Sounds like a loud elevator. No option to disable.
JDSMug, Kent
Amazing Kettle
Love this kettle! It looks great on the counter, heats water fast, and the temp control really makes coffee and tea taste better. Worth it if you love hot drinks!
