Russell Hobbs...no thanks.
They don't value the safety of they're customers. They carried on selling faulty irons even after they knew that they were electrocuting people and didn't recall them until 18 months after they found out that people were getting serious injuries.
Some might say that this isn't an iron and they've used russell Hobbs for years, but it is the fact that they are willing to put they're customers at risk, over profit. It's the same company at the end of the day.

Great find. I've had one of these for the past year or so and it's one of my best buys. It heats up and boils in very quick time and is super-quiet. And, yes, for once the claim of 45 seconds for one cup is accurate, even after a year's use. Highly recommended.

Hi, some of the Amazon reviews mention rust developing around the rim or spout after time and also it getting noisier. Have you found the same problems?

The camels told me about this earlier this evening - I asked Flubit and have now bought from them for £19.50.

I put it into flubit too and it ended up using a third-party seller's listing, which was £12.99 brand new including free delivery. Ended up nabbing the kettle for £11.33!

I haven't experienced any degradation of the metal anywhere. This is definitely a quality kettle that should cost a lot more. I'd go as far as to say it's a classic.

That's OK it's only either the missus or the kids (after a bit of bribery) that ever make the brews :wink:.

Damn, I bought this a couple of months back at £30!
Anyway, good purchase even at that price..
My only complaint with it so far is that the guide on the sides show a mug extra than it will actually make.
