A lot smaller then the picture shows but it makes 2 good size drinks .Very quick blower .Doesn't take much room up be trying on our trip away .
Michael EcclesAnother reviewer (I guess he works for Russel & Hobbs) claimed that a full kettle boiled in 1 min 30 secs, one of the reasons I brought one, I can tell you that statement is complete rubbish, it takes exactly 5 mins, I feel I have been conned, so a little disappointed, but it does do the job without knocking your electrics out, just takes a little longer.
SteveI bought this kettle for a trip to Mexico and was disappointed that it isn't dual voltage. It's basically just a small kettle. Having said that, i prefer this to the standard travel kettle as this one boils enough water for two large mugs. Great little kettle for travelling closer to home and further afield if you are happy waiting a little longer for it to boil!
LindaVery pleased with it. Don't forget it is a kettle with cord attached. Working well in room with person in quarantine. Perfect size so as not to get in the way, and what you need from a mini kettle
Vicky DeeI live in an en-suite room accommodation and this very helpful for me.Pros:Small size.Light weight.Enough water for around 2 cups.Doesn't take too much time to boil.Shuts off automatically when water is boiled.Cons:I didn't like the fact that the cord is fixed to the kettle and is not detachable.
Mohamed BasionyPerfect little kettle for travelling sometimes you can go places and not get a decent cup of coffee or tea.This is perfect it is lightweight and easy to use.
CandyVery good, suitable for bedroom.. BUT, the kettle does not detach from the plug so needs to be unplugged to be filled which isn't great for a bedroom. I've got round this by having a large water jug next to it. But if people want a bedroom kettle I'd suggest one where the kettle detached from the base and the power goes to the base. Apart from that very good and lightweight.
Amazon CustomerRubbish. It has no base, ie you can't detach the kettle to fill it so you have to unplug it and take the wire and plug to the sink. And the wire is SO short it doesn't even reach the plug from a bedside table so it needs an extension cord. Not exactly convenient. Don't buy this.
Mr. A. C. EvansI love this little thing. I got it to go in my room in my uni halls, since I have mobility issues and the kitchen is a floor below me, so I needed something I could use to make tea and instant soups and the like (I have a sink in my room so getting water is no issue). My only gripe is that it could do with a longer chord, though it isn't really that much of a problem.

Amazon CustomerTook it to Tunisia...the hotels there never seem to have a kettle...bliss..could tart the day with a coffee and not have to wait ..light weight nd m best pleased.
Mrs. Rita E. ThorntonBought this to go on a low table but the lead is far too short. I have to now use a clumsy extension lead. Only good if you have high power sockets. Nice touch with 2 cups.
Amazon CustomerA great little lightweight kettle at a great price. Ideal to take abroad on holiday. It takes a little longer longer to boil but the pros outweigh the cons.
Les AllenDoes the job and value for money
kasHighly recommend, it’s suitable for all households and you can also take it when travel as it has a compact size that fits any hand luggage.
KaeDid the job on holiday.
FAGreat for travelers. I stayed in a hotel that does not provide tea sets. So I got this and it served us well. It has 2 cups inside so you don’t need to purchase additional cups. More like buy 2 items for the price of one.
UddyI brought it to use when travelling, and it does the job. Only 0.5kg, does make too much noise and you have hot water for 2 cups.
mikaThis is an excellent little travel kettle. It is light and small and inside are 2 decent size plastic cups and 2 spoons. Best I've had.
CruellaJust what I wanted and compact enough to fit in my hand luggage
