Love this kettle and everything else made by KitchenAid. I have one at home and have now bought a second one for a holiday let property because it is robust and looks fantastic.
This is my second KitchenAid kettle and would recommend
Very pleased with it, the seller was very good and after checking with me it was the right red I wanted got it to me very quick
What can you say, it boils very quickly and very quietly, and it's not made in China?
Great looking,sturdy and efficient. The kettle never feels hot to the touch because of the insulation .
My second one, the first one is fine but was getting old. New one is quality as expected!
Excellent kettle fast boil and great insulation value it won't burn your hand and will hold heat longer
This is the second one that we have opened. We bought this make again as we were delighted with the first
As we have an open plan living room and kitchen, so pleased with this kettle as it's very quiet. So far absolutely no complaints
Bought this as a replacement as the old one packed up after about 5 years. So they don’t last forever, but look great!
Beautiful design, easy to use and although a little on the heavy side, doesn't dribble!!
Matches my other Kitchen Aid items. Good quality. Looks good. Quiet in use. Nice to have water at the correct temperature for herbal tea etc
Super fast kettle... love the temperature gauge and a smashing cuppa.
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.
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
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. ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Such an appealing look, quiet, quick, nice lighting and a lovely noise when temperature reached. All in all a well made item. Very pleased!
Lovely, lightweight, stylish and a beautiful deep red hue. Making a cuppa has never been so chic.
Got to replace the same
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.
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
Fast and very quiet, and looks lovely.
Excellent kettle - superior product. Very pleased with quality and service.
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.
