michael Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Breville "Classique" FTW I've had one for years with no issues and we use them at work, hundreds of boils a day and the same ones have been going strong for a few years now.

RiceRocket Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Why must it cost between £20-30? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedM Posted December 1, 2008 Author Share Posted December 1, 2008 Why must it cost between £20-30? Any less than £20 seems to signify a massive drop in quality. Anything over £30 is just too indulgent for a simple kettle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bens747 Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Got mine from tesco and only cost 5.95 I think and still going and no leaks ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted December 1, 2008 Author Share Posted December 1, 2008 Scratch Michael's recommendation. My better half says that we've had one of these two kettles ago. See also: leaking around on/off switch and steam near on/off switch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michael Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 Sounds like severe kettle misuse to me, are you turning them on with a hammer or something? Are you running water down the side of the kettle when filling? User error IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adnanshah247 Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 maybe if you spend a little more you might actually get a kettle that lasts and wont require constant replacement? just a thought or find one in your price range that has a warranty...........

Scott Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 Is this a problem down south? Is it limescale thats causing this? I've never seen a kettle leaking in my life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't that prove that you aren't God despite your constant attempts to make us believe so? If you were God you'd be omniscient and therefore not amazed by anything. Theolomagize your way out of that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
