I bought this kettle a few weeks ago. I have been using Russell Hobbs kettles for over 20 years. This is a lovely looking kettle but it's super loud when boiling, and it's not rapid boil as it says - it takes ages to boil!
I'm very disappointed in this kettle. The spout inside the kettle also makes a ping noise at times which is worrying. I don't think this kettle is sturdy or will last very long.
