Product Information

If you want a kettle that's striking and different, this Scandinavian-style Swan kettle could be the answer – it's an elegant and streamlined appliance that also comes in a cordless model. This kettle is relatively fast at heating: one litre boiled in 2mins 20secs, while its maximum of 1.

It is quite large, compared with some of our other options, but a soft close lid, easy-to-see water window, and soft sound signal only add to the design and simplicity of use. It doesn’t have a water window, so be sure to look inside to see just how much water you’re adding in, and the sharp jingle will let you know when your temperature has been reached.Be aware, though, that some parts of the handle are metal, which means they get very hot as the kettle boils. Additional convenient features include an automatic lid opening for easy filling and an automatic shut-off for worry-free use. This retro-styled gooseneck kettle is an ideal choice for tea and coffee connoisseurs because it features a really slim curvy neck for delicate pouring and a variable temperature range of 38˚C to 100˚C. This is because it takes well over four minutes to boil a full kettle’s worth – 1 minute 25 seconds for a single cup – and it takes too long to pour. If you’re a lover of fine teas, some of which brew better at lower temperatures, you might want one that enables you to select the temperature.

Descale regularly, preferably at least once a month and more often if you live in a very hard water area. Speed: While speed might not be the deciding factor when choosing a kettle, for most of us, the quicker, the better. Smeg appliances are a fan-favourite, thanks to their chic designs and classy look, and this kettle is no exception.Even kettles that boil water without any extra features vary considerably in terms of size, speed and lid type. Some people want their kettle to be as unobtrusive as possible, and certainly not loud enough to drown out the radio or music.
