    Overview

    Sitting down with a cup of tea is an excellent way to let off some steam, and now you can prepare your cuppa with a kettle that lets off its own steam slowly and carefully.

    This Breville kettle features a soft-open lid to safely release steam at a staggered rate. The lid’s motion will also prevent hot water from splashing onto your skin. With a 360-degree swivel base, you can comfortably position the kettle anywhere on your benchtop. Dual water windows allow you to fill the kettle accurately by using either millilitres or the number of cups as a guide.

    Get the perfect pour when you make a cuppa with the Breville's the Soft Top Pure electric kettle.

    What customers say
    Generated by BazaarVoice HarmonyAI using customers reviews

    The product is generally well-received, with many customers praising its great design, fast boiling time, and ease of use. Reviewers highlight features like the soft-opening lid, water level indicator, and the bell that sounds when the water is boiled. Many customers say the kettle is stylish and complements their kitchen. However, some customers have experienced issues such as the on/off button malfunctioning, the kettle becoming noisy over time, and the plastic parts cracking or the stainless steel rusting. A few reviewers have had to replace their kettle after just a couple years due to these problems. Some feel the kettle is overpriced given the quality issues. Overall, the product seems to be a good quality item that many customers are satisfied with, but there are concerns about its long-term durability. The manufacturer's customer service has been praised by some for resolving issues, but others have been disappointed when problems occurred outside the warranty period.

    The plastic top cracks after a few years
    Great kettle but our plastic cracked and now the kettle won't turn off when it reaches best temp. Buy a hard top next time.

    The king of all kettles!
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been using the Breville Soft Top Pure Kettle for about a week now and already I can tell that it is a huge upgrade to the old plastic kettle that it replaced. This is a very fine, high quality kettle. And in the world of kettles, it simply does not get any better than this. Made of stainless steel and well designed, this thing looks stunning sitting on the countertop. With a large capacity of 1.7 liters, it holds a lot of water! Perfect for a single cup of tea or for cooking up a big pot of boiling water, this thing heats up water quick! It has water boiling in about half the time it took with my previous plastic kettle. The top of the kettle opens up slowly and smoothly with a push of a button, and then snaps shut securely. What I really like about this kettle is that it has a built in filter that helps removes scale buildup, which ultimately results in cleaner water! The scale filter is easy to remove and easy to clean. I can see the Breville Soft Top Pure Kettle lasting years and years to come. This is my first Breville product but certainly won't be my last.

    Looks nice, poor quality.
    I should have read these reviews before I bought this kettle. Just four weeks after the 12 month warranty expired and our kettle has also developed a crack in the lid window that is letting steam escape. Clearly this is a problem with this model that will never be addressed. During these economic times we decided to go cheaper after having 2 of the Breville Smart Kettles. Big mistake. Now changing brands.
