We can not stand the noise. I guess it is a very powerful kettle which we didnt need it to be a rapid boiling kettle - we just found the noise level is beyond acceptable for this price range and brand. Had to purchase another one which we bought for our rental investment property and works fine. Loved the colour fitting well in our all white kitchen. It is an elegant looking item.

We have purchased these electric jugs for ourselves and as gifts over the years and have never been let down. Highly recommended

Purchased this premium kettle as we’d previously had our last Breville kettle for 7 years. While this Kettle worked well for the 2 years, it has just started malfunctioning as it won’t switch off when boiled. It is a safety hazard as it will continue to boil till water evaporates or till it’s switched off manually. Disappointed for such a “premium” product to break so soon.
