## Before you buy

- The electrical details conflict: the title and feature text describe 1800W and 220-240V, while a separate specification lists 120 Volts. Confirm the voltage and wattage on the selected Australian listing and product rating label before purchase. Customer feedback also reports both early failures and bottom leaks, alongside reports of reliable use. The stated capacity may suit several cups but some customers find the kettle too large, and an unpleasant smell is also reported. Descale regularly to manage mineral build-up. Allow boil-dry protection to reset before refilling after it interrupts heating.

## A good fit for

- Households wanting a glass kettle with a 1.8L stated capacity and visible fill markings.
- Buyers who prefer a jug that lifts off its powered base for pouring.
- People who use a kettle for tea, coffee, instant meals or cooking.

## Less suited to

- Buyers who need a confirmed electrical rating without first resolving the conflicting voltage details.
- Anyone seeking a smaller-capacity kettle or who is particularly sensitive to reports of odour.

## Customer feedback

Customer feedback praises the kettle's appearance and perceived build quality, with some reporting that it heats faster than a stovetop teapot. Experiences are mixed on reliability, value, size and leakage, and some report an unpleasant smell. For buyers considering its listed 1.8L capacity and 1800W heating claim, those reports make fit, electrical-rating confirmation and tolerance for potential odour relevant considerations. Aggregate ratings lean positive, but do not resolve the specific concerns.
- Positive themes: Customers describe the kettle as good-looking and high quality.
- Positive themes: Some customers say it heats water quickly compared with a stovetop teapot.
- Negative themes: Some customers report an unpleasant smell during use.
- Mixed feedback: Feedback differs on reliability, including reports of early failure and reports that the kettle works well.
- Mixed feedback: Customers disagree about value and whether the capacity is too large.
- Mixed feedback: Leakage feedback is mixed, including reports of bottom leaks and reports of no leakage.

### Does it switch off automatically?
Automatic shut-off after boiling is claimed, along with boil-dry protection that interrupts heating if switched on without water.

Yes. The listing describes cordless serving, with the jug lifting from its powered base.
