Beautiful design, easy to use and although a little on the heavy side, doesn't dribble!!
Great kettle lovely colour easy to use and does the job well.
Love this kettle. Bought to replace the previous one we had which had lived out its natural life. So glad we were able to get a model exactly the same as the old one.
Wasn’t sure what to expect and it was quite expensive but I’m really happy with the purchase. I like the idea of being able to select the water heat settings and the temperature gauge on the side of the kettle.
I love all kitchen aid products And my recent purchase of a kettle from kitchen aid did not disappoint me It’s lovely and you can set it at the temperature of your choice
Such an appealing look, quiet, quick, nice lighting and a lovely noise when temperature reached. All in all a well made item. Very pleased!
Compared to other products on the market it was a bit more expensive but looks great in our new kitchen. Perfect for making coffee as the kettle can be set to ‘boil’ at a lower temperature so not scalding the grinds.
Lovely, lightweight, stylish and a beautiful deep red hue. Making a cuppa has never been so chic.
I absolutely love how stylish this kettle is in my kitchen. I really like how I can adjust the temperature for things such as filling hot water bottles. It matches my mixer, next up the toaster. ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Got to replace the same
Very well designed, had one identical which has lasted 10 years. No hesitation in replacing.
I’ve had this kettle for at least 5 years and it looks the same as the day I first used it. it has several temperature settings and is GORGEOUS to look atI’ve just bought a second one as a present for my sonHIGHLY RECOMMEND
I love this kettle so much that I treated my son and daughter-in-law to one. They chose one in red. They also love its superb sublime design, its quietness, its ease of use. Not cheap but well worth the cost for the value added feel of a beautiful kitchen appliance.
Excellent kettle - superior product. Very pleased with quality and service.
Fast and very quiet, and looks lovely.
It's a beast. Solid, well constructed and good looking in a slightly retro way. Not too noisy and quick to boil it also has heat setting for when you make green tea and herb or fruit brews. First impression are all good but as ever, time will tell and I expect this kettle to be around for a long time or I shall want to know why.
Expensive? Probably, but good looking, well made and does the job it should do perfectly. To say it's enjoyable to use may seem odd and possibly a bit sad. On the other hand having used many a kettle over the years this is without doubt the best of the lot. By far. As a kettle is likely the kitchen tool used more than any other why on earth would you stint over a few extra quid.
I bought a Smeg kettle first and I returned it the next day as, despite of its high price, it felt light and cheap, all plastic. Not sure why as this is supposed to be a premium brand?!Then I bought this Kitchenaid kettle and, what a difference! It feels heavy and robust and the base is made of metal and not plastic. The sounds it makes are not as loud as the Smeg and nicer too.It looks good too, very happy with it.
Well packaged, great product. Good reliable delivery. Recommended.
Someone I know had one of these and when our smart kettle broke we wanted something that is solid, lasts and works really well.Solid indeed, works really well and silent,like so silent and I don't understand how but I have less limescale build up. It is quite heavy but I have no problems with that. The temperature control works really well and had a soft pint when water is ready. No problem whatsoever. Honestly!
My first Kitchenaid kettle stopped working after 11 years. I think this is a great result!I just ordered exactly the same one, why look for better?
I love this kettle, I have bought three previously and the down side is they don’t last very long 😔 12-18mths and then problems with electrical connection. Please buy on the assumption they are not long term. Expensive for short life span, however, five stars for the initial experience of loveliness.
Expensive but exceptional. We’ve had dozens of kettles, some of them as expensive as this, but all of them had something that failed, broke or was just annoying. This is flawless. Brilliant design, great engineering, looks fantastic. I didn’t think it was possible to rave about a kettle, but here we are….
Looks gorgeous, quick to boil.
Love this kettle, And would highly recommend
I read an article in a consumer magazine that recommended this kettle as the best one they had ever tested re: quality of build and operation. So, I bought one (colour: black onyx)... and I agree with the review I read. It isn't as big and bulky as it looks in pictures, perfect in shape and size, with a nice satin sheen to the colour. It's also quiet, and quick to reach temperature. Yes, it's expensive, but it's the first kettle I've owned that I've ever wanted to cuddle (and I can do that, because the outside of it isn't too hot to touch), and it's worth every penny I paid for it. As you can tell, I just love this beautiful kettle ..... I've named it, 'Chubs,' by the way!
A bit pricey but it’s worth it. Variable temperature control. Double walled so keeps water warm saving money. Not overly noisy (unlike the bosch kettle which is ridiculously loud). Boils quickly. Perfect pour. Easy to fill and light weight. It’s just great.
Fabulous kettle - second one we’ve had - first one later ages - very stylish item
Fantastic....Very well packed, delivered on time.Cast Iron Black 15.l It's Michigan USA built, it's like a tank. Yes a wee bit expensive, but not a kettle you replace once a year. Very classy and functional addition to the kitchen which people DO notice.The blue lights and chime when it boils are nice touch.Highly Recommend seller and item.
Love this Kettle. I bought the Silver. Had it a year now and it’s great. Replaced it with a Smeg. Still looks like new.Was a little upset with delivery as I live in a flat , it was left outside the building in the rain. A neighbour brought it to me otherwise it could have got stolen.
