## Questions & Answers

**Q: How many years Warranty does it come with**
A: One year

**Q: Is the water gauge made of plastic?**
A: The window through which you view the water level is plastic. This changes colour as the water heats up. This kettle is very NOISY!

**Q: Is it polished or brushed stainless steel? Thanks.**
A: Its polished stainless steel

**Q: Brought this item and I'm Confused.  It says it illuminates blue when on on standby mode but it only comes on when boiling ?**
A: When you first switch it on it lights up blue, even if you havent got any water in it. Once the water starts heating up it turns pink then eventually red. If your one doesnt then I suggest it may be faulty.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good Value and feels substantial - don't be put off.
*by D***E on 29 January 2020*

Design is good, the LED light "still hot" feature is all OK so far - useful if you're making coffee.Feels good and solid without being heavy.Illuminated gauge is both sides - useful for both left or right handed people.Can't understand people saying it's loud.I've had louder ones that take much longer to boil each time and then last just a matter of 12 months.Anyone that hated thiers must have had a dodgy one - so... send it back straight away you fools!OK there is one glitch: The sticky label (advised to "remove before use"), is so sticky you can't peel it off cleanly!Hardly a major fault though, so I'm very happy so far.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ LED temp indicator saves money and time
*by I***K on 17 October 2020*

I’m on to my second one of these - first one lasted about 6 years before the lid finally gave out. It’s a basic kettle which looks nice and heats up quickly, but it’s key feature is the LED light which tells you whether or not the water is hot enough to use for tea/coffee. As it heats up the light (visible in the water gauge window) goes from blue to red, the transition gives you an idea of how long it will be until it boils, which is useful. After it switches off automatically the red light stays on until the temp drops below 80 degrees which helps to avoid unnecessary reboiling, saving electricity and time. I also think that the reduced amount of boiling extended its life a bit.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ The good: The lighting changes colour
*by J***L on 6 October 2017*

I have to say, I'm a sucker for a gimmick, so it earns an extra star for that. Otherwise, it's a functional kettle with less than stellar build quality.The good:The lighting changes colour!!It stays on and red while the water inside is over 80⁰ C, so this serves as a warning that it's still hot. This is a good thing. Downhill from here, I'm afraid.The bad:Within days the lid opening mechanism became less and less effective to the point that within a week the only way to open it is to hold the button down and rap it smartly on the lid. Descaling it alleviates this, but only for a day or so. Unless you're going to descale your kettle every other day, this is just something you'll have to live with.The other bad:The label marked "I" and "O" (for on and off) fell off. this is purely cosmetic, and the switch still functions, but it didn't inspire confidence in the build quality as a whole. More importantly, there's no mechanical trip when you lift the kettle off its base, something I just assumed was normal for all kettles these days. this means that every time you lift it up without switching it off, small sparks are created between the kettle and its base. You probably won't notice them, but they're there, slowly eroding the contacts, and potentially dangerous, although the risk is small.So, good and bad, some more serious than others. So why four stars? Well, the lighting changes colour!The moral of this story: always read the review and don't rely on the star rating, before making your decision. I'll admit, I was annoyed with this kettle's shortcomings, but knowing the pitfalls and working around them, I still like it. You might decide that quality (and safety) is more important, and choose a different product. I know I would, had I not already bought this one.UPDATE: sixteen months later===================I've always had trouble gertting the filter in and out when it comes time to descale this kettle. Habing already put my fingers through it more than once I finally managed to break off one of the plastic retaining tabs. So now it's a filterless kettle, and time for a new one...
