Now you can experience the simple joy of a Russell Hobbs Retro Style Electric Kettle. Whether you’re new to electric kettles or have been enjoying them your entire life, you’ll fall in love with the innovative features of this charming kettle. Not a tea drinker? Quickly boil water for oatmeal, hot cocoa, French press coffee, or instant soup and more. The retro-style design adds timeless beauty to any kitchen, no matter your kitchen style. Features like durable stainless steel construction with a pull-off lid, drip-free spout, and cool-touch handle make it as practical as it is elegant. The water temperature gauge on the front of the kettle simplifies the process of heating water to precise temperatures. The water level gauge on the rear of the kettle shows markings up to 1.7L, and the inside of the kettle features level markings for quickly boiling 1-3 cups of water. Additionally, the removable anti-scale filter helps prevent mineral buildup from passing through the spout. Enjoy the perfect cup, at the perfect temperature every time. It’s that simple. Review: Water gets to perfect temperature for tea and the unit is very stable and safe on the counter. - I love the color and shape of my kettle on the counter. It doesn’t really match anything in my kitchen but it seems to make it all the more charming. I love how handy it is to turn on or off. Just the flick of a little lever. Works great. I keep it filled so it’s always ready to make a cup or a pot of tea. Today I made instant oatmeal without messing up the microwave. So cute and a good quality. It is thinner metal than I expected but at least it keeps it lightweight for my arthritic hands. It’s adorable and handy. I use it every day. Review: Attractive kettle that is convenient and solidly built. - I've been very pleased with this kettle after using it heavily over the past few weeks. Operation is single-button simple, the kettle heats water quickly and retains the temperature for a decent length of time, and the enamel-like finish is very attractive. The kettle is a large vessel, but the weight is balanced in such a way that you can fill and pour without giving yourself carpal tunnel syndrome. My favorite feature is the low-profile heating base the kettle rests on. When the water finishes heating you can remove the kettle from the base, but the base itself remains completely cool. This is a nice feature, as you aren't leaving behind a hot element to worry about. This kettle is a pleasure to use, and well-worth the price. ## Features - Quick Boil Indicator - Level markings inside the kettle are visible from above, allowing you to accurately fill 1-3 cups of water for fast boiling - Removable, Washable Filter - The filter attaches behind the pour spout to keep lime scale out of your beverages. Removable for easy cleaning - Drip-Free Pouring - The pour spout is designed to prevent dripping by creating a single water stream that keeps the boiled water safely contained - 1.7 litre Capacity with Level Markings - The large capacity makes this kettle ideal for families and for hosting events. Boil up to 1.7 litre of water, using the rear-facing water level gauge for accurate filling ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B074XF4GBD | | Best Sellers Rank | #10,493,232 in Home & Kitchen ( See Top 100 in Home & Kitchen ) #3,876 in Electric Kettles | | Brand | Russell Hobbs | | Brand Name | Russell Hobbs | | Capacity | 1.7 Liters | | Color | Black | | Container Type | Kettle | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 1,141 Reviews | | Finish Type | Stainless Steel | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00027043996671 | | Included Components | KE5550BKR | | Item Type Name | Russell Hobbs KE5550BKR Retro Style 1.7L Electric Kettle, Black | | Item Weight | 2.6 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Russell Hobbs | | Material | Plastic | | Material Features | durable | | Model Name | Retro Style | | Model Number | KE5550BKR | | Other Special Features of the Product | Manual | | Package Information | Kettle | | Part Number | KE5550BKR | | Product Care Instructions | Wipe clean | | Recommended Uses For Product | heating water for tea, coffee, and instant soups, suitable for everyday use, special occasions, and making various types of tea with specific water temperature requirements | | Special Feature | Manual | | UPC | 027043996671 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Voltage | 120 Volts | | Wattage | 1500 watts | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Russell Hobbs - **Color:** Black - **Special Feature:** Manual - **Package Information:** Kettle - **Finish Type:** Stainless Steel ## Images ![Russell Hobbs KE5550BKR Retro Style 1.7L Electric Kettle, Black & Stainless Steel - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81P5V78Q96L.jpg) ![Russell Hobbs KE5550BKR Retro Style 1.7L Electric Kettle, Black & Stainless Steel - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91mcIrwYjCL.jpg) ![Russell Hobbs KE5550BKR Retro Style 1.7L Electric Kettle, Black & Stainless Steel - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91hALadQieL.jpg) ![Russell Hobbs KE5550BKR Retro Style 1.7L Electric Kettle, Black & Stainless Steel - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91htSOVqIwL.jpg) ![Russell Hobbs KE5550BKR Retro Style 1.7L Electric Kettle, Black & Stainless Steel - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81UZ5CegBmL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Are there any other plastic parts except filter that touch water? Will it work with the filter removed?** A: Yes, plastic is in contact with your water. And so is steam, which is hotter than the water and drips back down into your water. There are other dangerous toxins in plastics besides BPA, released in larger quantities by heat. A kettle made from Chinese-made materials can have contaminants as well - the Chinese are careless, have disregard for life, put money above health safety, and often don't abide by "specifications." Additionally, any screws, washers, solder, etc. can be made of materials that are even more dangerous than the steel. I have a Kit Aid whistling teakettle that is seamlessly coated with enamel on the inside, including any screws. I'm still waiting for a manufacturer to make a safe electric kettle that is seamless inside, preferably coated with enamel inside, unless made of 316L stainless steel. Often "rust spots" on Chinese steel are caused by inadequate cleaning of solder spray. **Q: Will the kettle turn off automatically at a certain temperature?** A: Thank you for your interest. This kettle will turn off automatically once the water boils. Additionally, the Water Temperature Gauge constantly shows you the temperature of the water inside the kettle. You can use the gauge for making drinks that require different water temperatures like green tea, white tea, and coffee. **Q: Where are this kettle and your other products made?** A: Thank you for your inquiry, Andiebatonrouge. This product is made to our specifications in Indonesia and China. The country of manufacture is printed on the box and in the use and care manual. **Q: Is the kettle suitable for use in the US (110v) ?** A: Thank you for your question, Vahe. This kettle is designed for use in a United States or Canadian 120 volt electrical outlet. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Water gets to perfect temperature for tea and the unit is very stable and safe on the counter. *by S***O on November 18, 2020* I love the color and shape of my kettle on the counter. It doesn’t really match anything in my kitchen but it seems to make it all the more charming. I love how handy it is to turn on or off. Just the flick of a little lever. Works great. I keep it filled so it’s always ready to make a cup or a pot of tea. Today I made instant oatmeal without messing up the microwave. So cute and a good quality. It is thinner metal than I expected but at least it keeps it lightweight for my arthritic hands. It’s adorable and handy. I use it every day. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Attractive kettle that is convenient and solidly built. *by K***R on September 27, 2019* I've been very pleased with this kettle after using it heavily over the past few weeks. Operation is single-button simple, the kettle heats water quickly and retains the temperature for a decent length of time, and the enamel-like finish is very attractive. The kettle is a large vessel, but the weight is balanced in such a way that you can fill and pour without giving yourself carpal tunnel syndrome.

This kettle is a pleasure to use, and well-worth the price. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Quick, efficient and saves water! *by N***C on July 9, 2020* I bought this several months ago and use it at least twice a day. I love the Heavenly Blue color, the retro look, and the front dial showing the water temperature. I typically only use this for tea on a cold day, but I also use it twice a day to heat up water for my dog's kibble. It takes several minutes for the faucet to produce warm water and I used to microwave my water, but now it's just so much more convenient with an electric kettle. Now I just flip down the switch on the Hobbs and it's done in a matter of a minute. I can switch it off when it hits a certain temperature, or just let it turn off automatically when it's done. You really can't miss what you've never had, but after having one of these, I will never be without one. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/46402291-russell-hobbs-ke5550bkr-retro-style-1-7l-electric-kettle-black](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/46402291-russell-hobbs-ke5550bkr-retro-style-1-7l-electric-kettle-black) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-09-25*
