    Reviews for Prestige Cordless Traditional Kettle, Almond, 1.5 Litre (Kitchen & Home) This kettle has a narrow spout. When pouring imediately after it clicks-off, water boils on the bottom-plate/hidden element and coughs water out of the spout over the worktop. The lid is not airtight (which I'm sure it shouldn't be) but not open enough to prevent this spurting. I could say the problem is a hazard, but that would be a bit extreme; no-one will let their toddler lie on the worktop on the opposite side of the cups.
    Reviews for Prestige Cordless Traditional Kettle, Almond, 1.5 Litre (Kitchen & Home) I spent ages choosing this kettle as when the last 'polished dome steel' one broke I wanted something that looked more inviting. I've had cheaper ones before but they never last more than a year. This one has a two year guarantee. I ordered this on Saturday and it arrived Monday lunchtime - incredibly fast service and I had not paid for a fast delivery as standard was already included. Just love the kettle, looks better than in the picture. Had thought it might be bulky but it is not - looks quite dainty but in fact feels very solid to use. Chose cream to be safe but I'm sure it would have looked amazing in red or purple which I've seen here and elsewhere. All I need now is a cottage to go with it! Thanks again - great product and very fast delivery.
    Reviews for Prestige Cordless Traditional Kettle, Almond, 1.5 Litre (Kitchen & Home) We have a traditional farm house kitchen. The Aga expired some time ago but we hanker for the style of that period. This kettle fits the bill as, cleverly, albeit contradictory, it is both contemporary and traditional at the same time - a great achievement by the designer.

    While it is pearlescent, this is subtle enough not to distract in our setting and the cream colour sits well with the primary cream throughout the kitchen. The shape blends well with the style of other items in the kitchen, although this kettle would look equally good in a modern contemporary dwelling.

    On the technical side, it comes to the boil quickly; it makes a bit of noise, although I find this is common with more powerful elements; the spout is perfectly designed to pour accurately and can be controlled with confidence without dangerous dripping; the length of the electric cable can be coiled discreetly in the base to avoid trailing wires; the handle is ergonomically designed to give great control when pouring; the lid is a nice snug fit and is well engineered.

    The downside? The Marketers have seemingly overruled the designers by insisting on sticking the brand name, in relief, on the side of the kettle, I would have preferred this to have been omitted.

    Overall, a quality premium product, well designed, well built and with great all round performance.

    A final word for Amazon - great service and the price was considerably less than traditional retailers.
