Product Information

For anyone looking to engender a calming atmosphere in their kitchen, the Kenwood Dusk provides a great, visually soothing alternative to these more attention grabbing kettles. It also offers boil dry protection in case you hit the switch without filling it first, plus an auto switch-off feature for extra peace of mind. Many of the best kettles claim to be energy efficient but determining which is the best energy efficient model isn’t as simple as trusting the manufacturers claims.

They’re also the safest, with most having an automatic shut-off setting so it stops heating the water when it reaches the right temperature. One feature which the Dualit Classic Kettle has which most others do not is a replaceable 3kW heating element. With a design inspired by the eclipse, the gradual blend of colour creates a blue ombre effect, an active trend that won’t go unnoticed in your kitchen.Its other features include a 360 degree base, boil dry protection, automatic shut off and a 3kW heating element. The kettle’s internal 1/2/3 cup indicators let you fill up just the amount of water needed for a brew so you can boil one cup in as little as 45 seconds**, so you have more time to relax and enjoy your refreshment. Available in three colours (red, grey and copper) you’re eyes are immediately fix on the striking colour. Boasting rapid boil, simply fill the kettle enough for one cup and it’ll be ready in 45 seconds… not too shabby!

Don’t be fooled by kettles advertised as “rapid boiling” – the fastest boiling kettle here is only 11 seconds quicker than the slowest.

The Luna Kettle has another trick up its sleeve in the sense that it's also an energy saving kettle. Followed by the Russell Hobbs 21888 in third… a great choice if you’re looking for bold colours and a traditional style. No need to worry about waking up the whole house in the morning or late at night, with Quiet Boil Technology, you can boil up your cup of tea with ease.

Five minutes after boiling, the water in the Dualit Lite still measured a toasty 93°C, coming second only to the Zwilling Enfinigy Pro. If the kettle has any additional features beyond boiling water, we also look at how useful these are. Available in three different colour variations of polished, copper trim and clay trim, the 72815 offers a very modern look, backed up with a bunch of useful features.Its enchanting Moonlight Grey appearance, combined with its rapid boil and quiet boil technology will leave you lost for words. No kettle we’ve tested packs in quite as many well-implemented features and neat design touches as the Russell Hobbs Attentiv. It's brimming with features such as energy saving measures, rapid boil technology and an extremely useful filter. Most kettles tend to be bright white, chrome, silver or otherwise have some degree of colourful “pop”. However, given its otherwise good performance, solid design and excellent value for money, we’re still more than happy to recommend the John Lewis Anyday as a straightforward, budget-friendly option.
