Love the way this looks in My kitchen. The Brora filter is a great idea but in reality it takes up a lot of space in the kettle meaning it doesn't hold a lot of water and also takes longer vecays of waiting for ut to filter (although this is faster then I thought it would be). We have taken the filter out at times when we need yoo boil more for cooking etc. But still a great kettle and it's super easy to remove and reinsert as required depending on purpose.
