Score 9.0/10+ Boils very quickly and just one cup at a time. I like the blue light.
- Noisy (but only briefly). I still keep a 'normal' kettle for when I have visitors.

Score 9.0/10+ It looks very smart - shiny black and chrome - and has a nice blue glow when switched on. Boils very quickly. It is easy to refill. Useful drip tray. Great for single cups of tea or coffee, I'd advise keeping hold of your old kettle for when you need larger amounts of water.
- No bad points really but it would be wonderful if the amount of water boiled could be varied slightly for cups/mugs that take a bit more or less than 250ml.

Amy, Wakefield , “local yorkshire girl”
Score 10.0/10+ design and aesthetics are excellent, the water actually boils in the speedy boiling time compared to other kettles of similar description on the market.
- there is only one bad thing about this kettle, which is an option to boil a larger amount of water,for instance when cooking, rather then just a cup full at a time

Score 8.0/10+ Easy to use, boiling water is ready in seconds and it looks quite good
- expels too much water for cups and coffee filters, could do a better job if it boiled 25% less water per dose.
