I really like having different temperature options. No more waiting for the kettle to stop boiling at 100 and the kitchen steaming up. I mostly use the 90 function for teas & coffees. Has a nice slow pour. Feels sturdy without being heavy. Very pleased with my purchase.
I mostly have the kettle set to 80C – in fact it does still boil before switching off, but it doesn’t boil for long, saving both electricity, and steam in kitchen. It seems that 70C, 80C and 90C function just the same as 100C if you’ve only got a small amount of water, but with more water there is certainly an earlier cut off. I really like the easy button push to turn the kettle on (or off) – though some people might object to the audible peep (1 peep for one or off, 2 peeps for auto off). I also like the no fuss lid, if you want to take the lid off to fill the kettle quickly. Finally – great looking kettle! Water level visible from all angles & illumination is nice.
The kettle itself seems good value for money, compared to the much more expensive competitors. The only limitation seems to be the slightly short flex on the base station is just too short for where we normally have our kettle. As an example our previous sage kettle had an extra 23cm of cable which in our instance would make all the difference.
