What’s not to like?!
So happy with this kettle! The lid comes off completely giving a nice big filling area. It looks really good with my cream toaster. Not too heavy when full. Decent length of cord. 360 base. What’s not to like?!

Does the job well.
Only had this kettle for a few days but very pleased. It looks good, boils quickly, easy to fill, pours well. Reasonable price. Does all that I need. I have had good experience with Breville products and was influenced by this when choosing.

Unhappy review
I bought this kettle last week and it doesn’t switch off. Can’t bring it back as the box was thrown away, complete waste of money.

Reliable Kettle
I bought this kettle about 4 months ago and i have always used this range from breville. Happy with it along with my toaster and coffee machine. Reliable and aesthetically pleasing.

Looks nice and works well

Good value for money
Originally bought one as it matched a rebuilt kitchen. Two years down the line the previous one has packed up - but t put that into perspective, it's probably been used six or seven times a day most days. Fill guide is useful, and the capacity is good, from a cup to covering a load of potatoes in a saucepan. Okay, so we bought another to match the aesthetic of the kitchen, but we are happy enough with the price and performance and longevity to buy exactly the same again

Breville kettle
I bought this kettle before from Argos as I like the colour and shape. When opening the lid it is not too high so it fits nicely under my kitchen unit unlike other models. I believe the price is also reasonable. It was delivered on time and in excellent condition.

Breville VKT257 Bold White Kettle comes with a black power lead and black plug.
Hi, the cable length is 75 cm.
Breville VKT223 kettle has a wide spout for easy pouring, but it does not include a specific anti-splash or anti-drip device to prevent boiling water from spitting. For safe use, we recommend pouring slowly and avoiding overfilling.
Hi, yes, the window where the water level is visible is illuminated.
According to the information on this page it should be illuminated.
It states it in both the wording and on the pictures.
Hi!
The water window does not illuminate in this kettle but the on/off switch should illuminate. If your kettle has a problem with this, please contact us through our website.
Hi Sam,
To descale Breville VKT223 kettle, we recommend using a proprietary kettle descaler (readily available in supermarkets or online) or a solution of white vinegar and water. Descaling should be carried out every 4–8 weeks, depending on the hardness of your local water supply (more often in hard water areas).
Hi JVS. I can confirm that the element is stainless steel and the body of the kettle (both exterior and interior) is plastic. I do hope this helps.
All Breville products are designed and developed in the UK and US and manufactured in the People's Republic of China.
Hello there!
The power cords for Breville kettles are consistent in design and are only available in black. Unfortunately, the white kettles do not come with white power cords, without exception.
We appreciate your understanding regarding this matter. If you have any other questions, please contact us via website: https://www.breville.co.uk... or via phone 0800 028 7154. We are open Monday - Friday 9am - 5pm
