I really love the look of this kettle. It’s tradition looking whilst being modern and super stylish. I love the stainless steel look, it looks the part in my kitchen. I also like that it’s energy saving and you can fill for just one cup if needed. Using the markers inside the kettle. Although it does take abit of getting used to if your cup is larger than the average! I would say it is quite noisy but does boil pretty quickly so not an issue. Over all very happy with my gift and I would recommend.
