Vektra VEK-1504W Vacuum Insulated Easy Pour Cordless Kettle with Temperature Selection Indicator Gauge, 1.5 Litre, White/Black

Nice looking, good heat retention, love that I can set the temperature! Has a couple of features that would be better designed but quite happy with it as had it a while now and got accustomed it it being heavier than a normal kettle and that you need to open it to check how much water is in (using it’s none hinged lid). It’s not faster to boil from cold than my last kettle but since it’s boiling so many times in a morning it’s good the second cup doesn’t need reboiling and subsequent ones only a few seconds.

This a great product and certainly keeps the water hot for a long time. It’s only downside, apart from being quite pricey is no visual external indication of how full it is.

Can not fault it does every thing as described, I would definitely recommend this item the best kettle we have had

Hi first is is it seems very good quality, I had a dialog on my boat which was way to powerful for my system so I was looking for a quality (boat is artdeco) looking kettle that was eco friendly. When I test boiled a full kettle at 19:00 it was still 80 degrees at 22:00 ( I went to bed). Very impressed

Good at keeping temperature, but I wish it had a water gauge

Sooooo good, had one before but really like being able to set the temperature as we often have hot drinks that don't require boiling water, quick delivery, safe to use.

Was really excited about getting this as I often boil water and get distracted and have to boil again.It was easy to setup and I loved the features.My first gripe was that flow of water when pouring was very slow and getting the last amount out was difficult (easier to take the lid off).Second very heavy (but will strengthen your arm muscles).If you take the lid off beware as if the water is 100c the steam will burn your hand as the top of the handle has a channel for the open button to be depressed into and this will channel the steam towards your hand.On the morning of the fourth day the base just made a ticking sound and would not work, unplugged and tried again still no joy.Rang Grunwert and spoke to quality control about the failure and was very disconcerted by their lack of interest just said send it back to Amazon, they were surprised as it was a new model but they didn't really give any customer experience (God help the UK after Brexit if this is the future of our customer service going forward).In summary not good design as pouring is slow, failed after a few days and supplier seemed unconcerned.I would still love to have a kettle that kept the water warm, however I'd give this one a miss as it disappoints on many levels :(

I bought vectra 4 kettle a little over 2 years ago for nearly £100. It is expensive for a kettle but I wanted to get something that would last and be more environmentally friendly. At first I was happy with it, although sometimes the steam comes our where the handle is situated which is dangerous, so I didn't like my children using the kettle. After about a year the base started playing up so the kettle would not always switch on or reach the desired temperature. After two years it stopped working altogether. I asked Vecrta what to do and they said I coudl buy another base but sent the wrong link so when it arrived the new base didn't work. I then contacted the again and they ignored me at first and then offered to send the correct base free of charge. It never turned up and did not respond when I contacted them. Their phone number is hard to find but I eventually got it and they said the base I wanted was out of stock and would not be back in until January - so now I have a very expensive and useless kettle. Do not buy this product - it breaks, is poor value for money and customer service is almost non-existent.
