GermanyAbsolutely fabulous!
Beautyful design meets high end functionality. We love the decent whistle which is pleasent and never disturbing.
United KingdomWorth waiting for
The kettle is in good proportion, sleek and shiny. It uses much less energy boiling my filtered water on the gas stove than using an electric kettle, making a perfect cup of tea and looks fantastic too. I intend to keep it in tip top condition to make it last for years to come.
United KingdomExcellent
We love our new kettle it is so beautiful !! We will probably never buy another kettle again. We were so fed up with buying electric kettles that lasted a few months a year at the most. Definitely recommend this kettle a good investment.
