    Overview

    Putting the kettle on has never looked so stylish. KitchenAid are renowned the world over for their elegantly constructed stand mixers, and they carry these design principles over to their smaller benchtop appliances.

    This 1.25-litre kettle boils quickly and quietly, closing the mile between you and your chamomile. With a removable limescale filter, 360-degree base, and aluminium lid, it can easily be transferred and cleaned.

    Round out breakfast by pairing with a KitchenAid Artisan two- or four-slice toaster, and get creative by mixing and matching colours.
    Sleek colours

    Backed by decades of heritage, KitchenAid know a thing or two about making appliances that turn heads. Available in Empire Red, Onyx Black, and Stainless Steel, this kettle carries the KitchenAid badge with pride. Get adventurous by pairing with a KitchenAid Artisan two- or four-slice toaster, also available in multiple colour finishes.

    Quick and quiet

    This kettle is an honest performer that knows its role. Fill it with water and flick the switch when you get home at the end of a tiring day, and you’ll be nursing a soothing cuppa in no time at all. You’ve undoubtedly dealt with enough noise throughout the day, and this kettle’s quiet operation means you won’t have to deal with any more.

    Removable limescale filter

    Located in the pouring spout, the removable limescale filter traps any sediments or deposits within the kettle before they can find a way into your mug. Because the flavour should be coming from your tea leaves and not from anywhere else.

    Compact footprint

    The kettle’s removable base allows for 360-degree rotation, so you will have no trouble transferring the unit. The smooth, rounded design makes the kettle easy to handle and, by storing the cord inside the base when not in use, you will save on benchtop space.

    great kettle!
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] happy to have purchased it - great kettle - !!!!!!

    Great little kettle
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this funky little kettle a month ago for two reasons: I wanted a kettle that lasted and my Kitchen Aid gear lasts well and it was too cute to ignore. It isn’t heavy but feels sturdy as if it will last a long time, it looks great on the bench and it boils quickly and quietly. It holds a little less water than most kettles but this hasn’t been a problem.

    It’s little but looks great.
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a cute little kettle. A bit smaller than our last one so it’s taking a bit of getting used to. I wouldn’t say it’s any quieter than our last one though. Oh well. Works fine.
