Morphy Richards Equip Jug Kettle, 1.7L, 3Kw Rapid boil, Removeable Limescale Filter, Easy View Water Gauge, Stainless Steel Case, Red, 102785

A very good looking kettle with a good fast boil. As others have said it is a bit noisy but as it is quick it is not a problem.

I purchased the Morphy Richards Equip Black Jug Kettle (1.7L, Rapid Boil, Limescale Filter - 102783) and overall, I am quite pleased with it. The kettle is of fantastic quality and feels very well made. The sleek black finish looks great on my kitchen counter and adds a touch of modern elegance. The rapid boil feature is a real time-saver, especially in the mornings when every minute counts. The limescale filter is a welcome addition, as it helps keep the water clean and the kettle functioning efficiently. The packaging was secure, and the delivery was swift, ensuring the kettle arrived in perfect condition. However, there are a few drawbacks. The black powder coating, while lovely, appears to be quite thin. It can chip easily if you're not careful. Additionally, I’ve noticed that any water splashes that cook against the exterior leave a white residue, which is impossible to wipe off. It almost seems like the water splashes get burnt onto the surface. This is a bit disappointing given the price of the kettle. Despite these minor issues, if you wipe any accidental splashes before boiling, you won’t have this problem. The kettle is not cheap, but its performance and stylish appearance make it a worthwhile investment. If you’re careful with it, you’ll likely be very satisfied with your purchase. Thank you for taking the time to read my review. I hope that you found it helpful and that it assists you in your decision-making. I try to be as honest and fair as possible, as those have always been the reviews that helped me the most.

A decent kettle for the price. It has a good water capacity at 1.7L and it's stainless steel rather than plastic. The upside of that means that the water tends to retain heat for longer than it does in a plastic kettle. On the flip side, the outside of the kettle gets extremely hot after boiling though this does not affect the handle, but it's something to be aware of if you have young children around. Not that they should be anywhere near a boiled kettle anyway. It boils quickly enough but I wouldn't say it's any quicker than any other mid-price kettle and it's pretty noisy in doing it. The lid releases with a button at the top of the handle but it doesn't go up quite as far as I'd like - only to about 60° so quite a bit short of vertical which might make filling awkward on some sinks/taps? There's a water gauge on the left side. It would be better if it had one on each side as I'm left-handed so when I put the kettle on the base, the gauge is to the wall and I have to turn it 180° to see. All in all though, minor niggles. Good kettle.

I am really pleased with this kettle. It is well designed and well made and pours perfectly without dripping. The only minus point is that it is rather heavy so is probably not suitable for someone with weak or painful wrists.

The only kettle you should get is this one. I hardly ever leave reviews, but this kettle served me for years without breaking. I only changed it because the inner filter broke and limescale started pouring into my coffee. This time I bought the red one, and I have to say it looks metallic, whereas the cream colour looks much more elegant. As I said, if it weren’t for the limescale, I would never have changed it, even after having it for years. It is a bit loud, but it boils quickly and pours perfectly — I’m so glad with it. Forget other kettles out there. I’m only writing this to help you with your purchase because it took me a while to find the right kettle.

Great kettle. Low noise. Water stays hot for a while afterwards too. Needed a quick replacement after ours began to leak. Easy to pour and hold. Button press to release the lid. Easy clean.

Generally a good item. Good construction for the price. However one drawback is that it is noisy when boiling.

Style and shape sleek and compact. Very noisy when boiling water and gauge does not light up. There were no instruction leaflet with the kettle. Would like to know where I can get this. Easy comfortable grip but definitely for right handed person as gauge only on one side and not easy to read but good for price.
