Product Information

This is an Eco-friendly option that many people who want to conserve energy will look for. With cup indicators clearly marked along the side of the kettle, it allows owners to choose how much water to boil. It features the boil dry protection feature, so the kettle will shut off if there’s no water in it. Some kettles will feature a keep warm feature that can last between 20 minutes, up to 2 hours with some higher-end models.

There’s no digital readout of the temperatures, it appears a little dated in comparison to new, sleek models Auto shutoff, a slow release lid to prevent hot water from splashing, and boil dry protection, are a few of the many great safety features to look for when choosing a new smart kettle. It also features an auto shutoff feature for added safety if owners forget to turn off the unit after the water has boiled. This gives owners an indication of how long it will take to reach the desired temperature. It goes up to 100 degrees C. This feature is nice as you can shut it off before it reaches a specific temperature if you have to, or are in a hurry. This kettle also keeps the water hot, at a selected temperature, if this function is chosen by users.Copenhagen-based HAY is a shining example of Scandi design, and the Sowden kettle is about as good-looking as a kettle can get. The light, matte coloured plastic and stainless steel construction would look lovely in the kitchen of even the most scrupulous interiors enthusiast. By my timing, it took three minutes and 23 seconds to boil 0.5 litres of water, and five minutes to boil a full kettle. However, if you can’t go without your cup of Yorkshire Tea while you’re travelling, you could do a lot worse – it’s light, easily portable and virtually silent to operate.
