Yeah there are a few refurb deals to be had on this model at the minute. My problem is in the description that you have no idea what you are getting when it says : "THE ITEM WILL COME WITH THE ACCESSORIES / CABLES REQUIRED FOR THE ITEM TO FUNCTION BUT MAY NOT HAVE ADDITIONAL ACCESSORIES. SEE INDIVIDUAL LISTING FOR DETAILS. THESE UNITS HAVE BEEN TESTED, AND ARE NOT DESIGNED FOR THE WATER TO BE REMOVED COMPLETELY; A SMALL AMOUNT OF WATER MAY THEREFORE BE PRESENT IN THE DEVICE"
Also you wont get the 2 year warranty you would with the new models

Good spot. Hughes Delivery isn't the quickest but might be worth it if you aren't in a rush.

Had this for over 2 years now great effixi3ncy is nonsense as it's based in just filling 1 cup and boiling but the temperature settings are occasionally useful - sadly every time it's starts and stops you get a VERY loud BEEP

It's fairly easy to disable it. Just need a pair of pliers and a screw driver. There's a few videos on YouTube.
Oddly, it doesn't bother me. In fact, I'll be upset if it didn't beep.

Nice, but wouldn't pay that much for a kettle

Thanks, did consider the black unit from eBay but decided on a new cream one from your link. Quidco of £1.40 as well. :smile:

Not sure why Bosch has a thing about their appliances beeping - my washing machine does the same (luckily easily turned off in settings - first thing I did when I set it up!). A kettle beeping, especially first thing in the morning, would drive me bonkers.
The temperature control is really useful if you like your cafetiere coffee at the right temperature, etc. I've got a Russell Hobbs version.

If you're in the West of Scotland, Watt Brothers have the cream one for £29.99. Stacks of them in the Clydebank store.
