Breville BKE700BSS soft top pure tea kettle brushed stainless steel customer review
It does its job
Before ordering this electric kettle, I was very concerned about the excessive beeping noise that several reviewers had complained about over the years. Either they were way too picky, or Breville listened to their complaints and changed the beepiness. It’s not a loud beep whatsoever. It’s quite dainty actually, and it’s not too frequent either.
It defaults to Celsius temp when you unplug it and plug it back in, but it’s very easy to switch back to Fahrenheit. I like the multiple temp feature. Seems to work well. With that said, I’m actually a fan of boiling my water completely first before using it for tea.
This was supposed to replace an older Breville electric kettle that does not have variable temp settings. Unfortunately, my mother, who uses it the most, was not happy with the fact that this has the plastic window completely exposed to the water. Plus, this new one feels less sturdy than the old one because it weighs less, which would actually be a benefit for people who have trouble holding heavy items.
We ended up giving the new one to our son for a Christmas gift. He loves it.
