Big design flaw with lid

Does not have a mechanism to open the lid without singeing your hand

Great size but too noisy
Reviewed on Amazon.co.uk

I bought this kettle for my 95 year old parents who are struggling these days to pick up heavy things. I thought this would be ideal as it held just enough water for them to make their tea and coffee. The kettle looks great and is light to lift - but oh is it noisy. When you sit in the kitchen with it boiling it makes conversation somewhat challenging! What a shame...

Compressed kettle
Reviewed on Amazon.co.uk

This smaller than average kettle would be good in any mobile home or caravan - or even flat or small home. It is only a litre capacity but that isn't going to be an issue unless you are filling a large flask. The simple appearance of the kettle is nice. I have timed the 'fast boil' claim and it is rather quick but not so much faster than my previous Dualit kettle. It's a perfectly good kettle but unless you need to save space or there are only a couple of you in the house, its lack of capacity can be problematic - especially for flasks which I use daily. I have to boil it twice which is not ideal.
