Kettles

Post by DeskJockey »

If we can argue about toasters, why not kettles? Our 3-4yo Bosch has been looking a bit tired of late and has to today begun to smell of warm/burning plastic, so is being replaced tomorrow. What to get?

Toaster is a four slice Dualit, hob is Neff, oven a Belling, microwave and fridge/freezer both Samsung, cooker hood Bosch, dishwasher Indesit, mixer is Kitchen Aid (candy apple red), and food processor Kenwood.

Just pick the one which matches your kitchen.

We have a Russell Hobbs. Same make as the toaster. They don't match though :)

AEG ovens and hob, Neff dishwasher, LG fridge, Samsung dryer and Bosch washer. Oh and I think an Elica extractor.

Our Bosch blew up, so I replaced it with a Bosch.

I like my Bosch; not too noisy which is why I got it. The spout is a bit crap when it’s full and you want to pour quickly though.

We have a Haden which works well enough but it's pretty noisy. Thermometer on the outside though

I bought a one cup Breville thing during lockdown #1, its a basic thing but for my brew frequency it's ideal while I WFH. Can set the thing off and go pee/fetch the mail/make breakfast etc

It's not fancy pants aluminium or trendy though.

Two things I didn't know I needed from a kettle until I had them - adjustable temp and a "keep warm" setting.

Nah buy the one with the lowest wattage because it uses less leccy.
How about not having a sig at all?

Really what you should be doing if you're suitably upwardly mobile is getting a boiling water tap.

Maybe hold off on replacing the upstairs hall TV if money is an issue.
