This is a beautiful silver shiny kettle. It suits my decor as its silver with a little hint of black. It boils water fast and has a window to see how many cups to boil. If you buy this kettle don’t forget the lead is looped under the base, you do not have a really short lead. Also as time goes on it is easy to buy the filters for this brand as we have brought them for previous kettles so they last that bit longer. Absolutely love my new kettle as it’s just so easy to click on and use. It has an easy to lift lid to fill it up and a nice handle to hold. A good size for boiling large amounts for the pan. Highly recommend
