Boils water quickly. It’s noisy
OaeNot sure why nobody has yet to mention the fact that this kettle does not sit firmly on its cradle!!
The worst and most annoying thing which could be a feature of any kettle is for it not to sit flat on the worktop. This thing has a horrible wobble to it when you place it on its cradle.
WHY?!? That is just so annoying. Feels cheap, unsafe and most unsatisfying to use.
SHAME! Russell Hobbs have let themselves down with this new design - Poor Effort!

DavidI bought this kettle on 9th April 2017 and it is now 2nd August, 4 months later. The kettle lid does not stay down so when the kettle boils the steam pushes the lid up. It means that I have to wait each time for the kettle to boil and risk being scolded by steam. Not a very good product and I would definitely not buy it again.
Amazon CustomerVery loud noise when working and very poor fitting lid
Amazon CustomerI bought this in December for my new house that I moved into in February and having used it for just under three months it has broken already! The lid catch has stopped working so it no longer shuts.I'm so disappointed and won't be using Russel and Hobbs again.
Amazon CustomerNot recommended to buy, with a week on the switch is broken
KenKettle has stickers on it that take about 30 mins to remove all the glue and even then you can still see where the stickers have been. Kettle seems well made with a large capacity.
Amazon CustomerGood kettle but very noisy
Hari PunLight weight kettle..boils fast... but lid Broke after 8 months, which led to a sharp metal spring in the bottom of kettle..that managed to get in to my tea, was not impressed, will not buy again..Amazon and Russel Hobbs, didn't care less..just offered a refund, could have been very nasty!!! NOT HAPPY.
C.burgessI purchased this kettle to replace one I had had for over 10 years. After only 16 months the lid will not stay down which means if used the kettle does not turn off. I am very disappointed in the product which I chose as I thought Russell Hobbs supplied good products. I would not recommend buying it.
S. G. HarveyAppalling kettle, every time you fill it up then go to pour it leaks boiling hot water everywhere. Utter rubbish!!
torby78@hotmail.comKettle lid has broken after three months, and there was no product guarantee to cannot return/replace. Sticky label was very difficult to remove from the kettle.
Amazon CustomerHad it for just over the year. Lid starting coming off every time water heats up and is now completely broken...
Amazon CustomerA little bit on the noisy side but happy with service and product.
JimBroke after exactly 2 months. The filter fell of and the cap doesn't close anymore and sometimes you have to keep the switch down for it to actually boil. Terrible!
Amazon CustomerUnfortunately the switch would not stay down and had to be held until hot so it would stay downAnyone else had the same fault
Robert oagsmall fault steam escapes when pouring
CogglesHave only had this a few days so it hasn't rusted yet, however I'm very unhappy with the fact that it needs to rest for a few minutes between boils. I suppose this is a safety feature but my old kettle didn't have it, so I find it very irritating. I would not have bought it if I had known.
happybookreaderProblem when pouring the hot water spout leval with the lid when pouring the hotWater steam passes over the hand
RolandFoxThe snowdon kettle is a great energy friendly choice for the home. It's a classic brushed stainless steel kettle with a push to open lid for quick and easy filling. It has a water window with useful measurements so you can boil exactly the amount of water what you need. For times when you just want a quick cuppa for yourself or a brew for two, there is a rapid boil zone with an easy indicator on the inside of kettle which denotes one, two or three cups. The fast 3 kW power means that just one cup can be boiled in 45 seconds -really handy for those times when you could kill for a cuppa. The kettle has a handy ideal pour spout design so the water can be poured evenly into mugs and cups without spluttering and spilling all over your worktop. The illuminated on/off switch completes the story for an easy to use, energy and water friendly kitchen essential.
