One of the Best Buys / Gifts Ever

December 19, 2012
"We wanted a stainless steel electric teapot. This was the only one that we could find that did not have exposure to plastic. Though there is plastic on the inside. It can be removed easily. The other piece of plastic is just a marker for how high the water can go. We liked this so much that we got some for family as Christmas gifts. Even a year later they are raving about how awesome it is. It was one of the best buys we have ever made, not to mention, a great gift that has been giving to them daily for the last year, that they still talk and brag about. It is by far the best electric teakettle we have encountered."

Hot Water Fast

December 18, 2012
"A view window would be nice but the pot is light enough a light lift will let you know if more water is needed. Saw the same one on a network TV show this week so it looks great"

Best Electrical Teakettle as far as I know

December 18, 2012
"Best electrical teakettle as far as I know
I used to have Russel Hobbs electrical teakettle before for quite a few years and liked it. Once it was fallen down on a floor and shortly I had to replace this teakettle by another one. I looked through many electrical teakettles: Krups, Black and Decker, Delongi, etc.
There are all were too way big and/or heavy, or cover was plastic. I found that this one, electrical teakettle Russel Hobbs is the best for me! All –metal inside, easy to use and not pricey; could not be better

Not quite what I wanted

December 5, 2012
"The kettle works fine. Just disappointed that the lid isn't attached and doesn't 'pop up' - you have to take the lid off to fill the kettle. It also doesn't have a water level view area which I prefer so I can see how much water is in the kettle before I add any more."

Bought two of them, both leaked

May 28, 2012
"Bought this one because it was cheaper than the other overpriced pots. Leaked in < one year. I like having an electric tea kettle though so bought another one. Leaked in < 1 year. Unfortunately I didn't learn my lesson and didn't save the receipt."

finally a good hot pot

December 22, 2011
"I have been looking for a good hot pot to boil water quickly. Here it is. Very stylish and does the job well. I like that there isn't a coil inside so cleaning is easy. Little wobbly on the base but other than that I am sure this will last a long time."

Excellent kettle by company known for quality

November 10, 2011
"This is my third Hobbs electric tea kettle in the last twenty-five years. I think the only reason they have not lasted longer is due to extremely hard water in places I have lived.
They can be a tad loud, but then, so were my cook-top kettles. It is simply the noise made prior to boiling and something one gets used to in time; or puts up with if wanting boiling hot water.
They are quite efficient; last a long time; and, look nice on the counter. I recommend this kettle to anyone looking for one - especially those making this type of purchase for the first time. You will never use another brand after you have used a Russell Hobbs."

It's fast!

October 24, 2011
"This purchase was made as a gift for my daughter in her first apartment, which has no stove. She likes it very much and says it is faster than her microwave oven. She says the only drawback is that it sounds like a jet ready to take off as it's heating up and that it's loud."

LOVE IT!!

May 16, 2011
"Let me tell you... when my mother gave me this as a gift, I thought, why do I need this? I have a kettle on my stove that works fine. I was going to return it to the store unopened, but my mother insisted I try it. I fell in love with it the first time I used it. It boils water so fast, it's amazing! It shuts off on it's own, so if you walk away, or get interested in something on the TV... no worries! It looks nice on the counter and frees up your stove top. I make instant oatmeal almost every morning for my son, and I make myself a cup of tea. This does the trick! The water stays hot for a long time too."

Simply Excellent !!!!!

March 31, 2011
"Received this kettle as a gift and it is great !!! Was a bit skeptical as had another brand for over 10+ years, but this kettle is much better. Boils water really hot and quickly, has a large capacity, is lightweight for the volume of water it holds and is attractive so it looks great on my counter. It also keeps the water heated for a long time and the automatic shut-off and cordless features are fab. In addition the base stays cool and it is easy to fill and clean. On the look out for other items in this brand !!! Great practical gift to boot."

An electric tea kettle

February 28, 2011
"Wow, what a wonderful item this is. I can plug it in and know that if I leave the room it will shut itself off instead of burning out the bottom of the pot like ordinary tea kettles do when left on the stove.
It is lightweight, compact, and looks good enough to leave out on the counter.
I love my Russell Hobbs tea kettle!

"I bought this item along with others when i moved into my new home. This product is amazing!! It boils water in half the time.. and I was surprised at how big the kettle was! Its such a joy to wake up in the morning plug the kettle in walk away, brush the teeth and the water is ready for tea action! It blends well with the other stainless appliances. You wont be disappointed."
