So far, we’re very happy and satisfaction with it’s performance.

We have been through three Zip glass kettles in 24 years. The first two had to be replaced after we broke the glass, but the last one had a glass body that was made in Germany so it lasted until it became so shabby we started to think about replacing it, which didn't happen until the kettle broke finally down. and we had no choice. Since the Zip product seems to be no longer available, we looked at all the glass kettles in Briscoes and decided on this one. The only quibble I have with it (which is the reason for only four stars) is that it doesn't switch off if you get impatient and pick it up as soon as it comes to the boil. Old habits die hard and I'm having trouble remembering every time to switch the kettle off before picking it up. The "proof of the pudding" in this case is how long it lasts. Will it still be working in 5 years? It should still be working in ten as far as I'm concerned.

Love my new Jug!!! Love the colour. And it didnt have that yucky water taste first few times of using the jug too. Thumbs up.
