Russell Hobbs Textures Electric 1.7L Cordless Kettle (Fast Boil 3KW, Black premium plastic, matt & high gloss finish, Removable washable anti-scale filter, Push to open lid, Perfect pour spout) 21271

This kettle has a very sleek look, boils quickly and sits securely on its base but doesn't get caught when lifting. A good quality kettle for the price.

Good quality kettle for the price . Would recommend.

Likes: price; boils quickly (quicker than my previous R-H kettle); button-press to open lid, which opens wide; window which allows to see how much its filling at the tap (but see dislikes below). Dislikes: doesn't switch off quick enough on boiling (same as my previous R-H kettle) so steams for 2-3 seconds; the 'Perfect-pour' spout doesn't pour perfectly, especially if only boiling one cupful - water drips ether side of the spout on pouring (my previous R-H kettle had wider spout and _never_ dripped like this one....); window does not light up when switched on (previous R-H kettle window lit up making it much easier to see how much water was being boiled). I wanted a cordless kettle with button-opening lid and window and didn't want to spend much, interested in utility rather than fancy design or looks. I'd been fairly happy with my previous R-H kettle which similar design and price and lasted 4+ years before the button-lid stopped opening (broken) and I could see no way to repair it, so this R-H kettle seemed to fit the bill in both design and price. I've been using it for 4 months now and I'm happy enough with it but, like my previous R-H kettle, it doesn't switch off quick enough on boiling so produces a fair bit of steam until it does click off (it has never failed to click off, at least) so if I'm nearby I manually click it off. I don't know why they narrowed the design of the spout, my previous R-H kettle with wider spout poured just fine and never dripped, unlike this one which drips either side of the spout when up-ending the kettle when only one cupful of water is boiled - annoying. The kettle also doesn't seem to sit as snugly on the base so it wobbles around a bit when boiling.... The push-button lid works well though, and it does boil a full load quicker than my previous R-H kettle. To me the design and looks are fine too but then I'm not fussy about such things, just want it to do the job. If it had been a £40+ kettle I'd likely have returned it and tried another model or make, but for £19 with a 3-year warranty (2 years + 1 year on registering) it'll do!

Smaller capacity than I expected but it looks great and boils super fast! I’m very happy with it!

Great kettle. Quick boil.

Very happy with this kettle it arrived quickly as my old one had blown up and I needed a quick replacement. The kettle is smaller than my old one but it isn't an issue for us as we are only a family of 4. It boils quickly and is quiet and overall good value for money. If I had to say anything negative about it it would be that it doesn't wow ..its a kettle though so.... if you want something that is good value for money and boils water then this is ideal

Good

Does the job, feels a bit cheap and flimsy, damn filter keeps dislodging itself and dropping into the kettle and is really fiddly to put back in. Starting to become very annoying .

Gesucht hatte ich eigentlich einen Wasserkocher mit mdst. zwei Liter Fassungsvermögen und mdst. 2200 Watt Leistung: für mich ziemlich unverständlich, GIBT es sowas NICHT mehr, ausser in Versionen mit "Glas"-Körper: das sind die welche man mehrmals monatlich ausführlich mit Essig- oder Zitronensäure behandeln/reinigen muss, damit sie nicht völlig verdrecken/verkalken (obwohl wir grundsätzlich nur gefiltertes Wasser verwenden!) - und die trotzdem ständig Sch...se, verschmiert, verkalkt, oxidiert aussehen. Warum die offenbar so beliebt sind: nicht nachvollziehbar. Früher gab es auch 2-Liter-/2500 Watt- Versionen mit Kunststoff-, Metall- Ummantelung: warum nicht mehr, bleibt ein Rätsel. Dieses Modell war die einzige Alternative - und: es gibt sie in Deutschland nicht ... Deutsche lassen sich halt gern verar...en. Aus UK (schnell!) geliefert, leider mit entsprechendem Stecker, so dass noch ein Adapter her musste. Zwar nur 1,7 Liter, dafür aber 3000 Watt, das kocht rasend schnell, da kann man das fehlende Volumen ausgleichen. Dennoch zwei negative Punkte: die Einfüllöffnung ist recht klein, so dass es häufig beim Einfüllen (aus dem Wasserfilter) daneben tropft. Es würde schon reichen, wenn der Deckel beim Öffnen weiter auf gehen würde. UND: das Kabel ist mal wieder eine Katastrophe, viel zu kurz, aber das ist ja mittlerweile bei etlichen Geräten so. So liegt das Kabel häufig im Weg, man kann es nicht so legen, dass es nicht stört. Der Kocher sieht aber wenigstens sehr gut aus. Allein im Vergleich zu allen anderen - Hunderten ! - hier angebotenen Geräten, die alle mehr oder weniger gleich sind, kein Hersteller wagt mal etwas oder DENKT mal NACH ...! , kann ich hier "4 Sterne" vergeben. Alle anderen Geräte sind noch deutlich unpraktischer, unbrauchbar, hässlicher. Der "Freie Markt" funktioniert nur, wenn Hersteller/ Produzenten/ Designer (und Käufer ...!!) ihre Freiheit auch SINNVOLL *nutzen* ...

J'ai reçu un article cassé et parce que je devrais payer pour le courrier, je ne l'ai pas retourné

Beautiful in style and function,with are great price .

انا قريت في التعليقات مكتوب انها ما تغلي زين ومو سريعه لاكن اللي بيشتري لا يشوف التعليقات والله انها سريعه وشكلها مقبوول وقيمتها رخيصه

I am not fully happy with this purchase because I ordered a new item, and it came with the little part chipped from the base and a few scratches on the base like it was used. What made me disappointed was the fact that in the description it is nowhere mentioned that the electrical plug is for the UK, nor you can see it from the photos, so I had to additionally buy an adapter for Europe.
