Product Information

One of the ways to conserve and save energy is to control how hot you want your water. With temperature control features, it is easy to choose a preferred temperature rather than having the water completely boil. Keep-Warm Function Secondly, stopping the kettle boiling sooner saves energy. Some kettles have adjustable temperature sensors for different jobs, although you can manually stop any kettle with a lower degree of accuracy. Well priced for a multi-temperature kettle, this is a good kettle in its own right, with the smart features a handy bonus.

Taking a maximum of 1.7-litres, with a minimum boil of 500ml, this is a good-sized kettle. It can be hard to see the fill lines on the side of kettle, which are marked in litres only, not cups. From the front, there are buttons to select the temperature you want: 70°C, 80°C, 90°C and 100°C.

You work at BID, what a legend.

Moreover, its 1.7-litre capacity is great for gatherings big and small, as is the fact it can boil one cup at a time for ultimate precision, or if things need to be done on a person-by-person basis. The Structure Kettle is also a fast boiler, taking roughly two and a half minutes for a litre, four minutes for full capacity and for one cup, just 45 seconds. Go for an environmentally-friendly kettle that allows you to boil the amount of water you need, even if it is one cup. Boiling the exact amount you need for your cup of tea will help you reduce energy costs, water usage, and the quality of your drink.

We were also impress by the removable filter to prevent sediments from building up. The amount of energy your kettle uses is determined by a variety of factors including the energy efficiency rating of the model, and how many litres of water it can hold. The auto shut-off ensures the kettle shuts-off as soon as the water reaches boiling point. A kettle without this function will take longer to cut out after the water has boiled, leading to energy wastage. Ignore anything you read about faster-boiling kettles. Converting electricity into heat is extremely easy, so all kettles will have similar efficiency figures. And since UK plugs house a maximum of a 13-amp fuse, the most energy a kettle can draw is 3kW. These two features mean that the ECO kettle will not end up boiling more water than you actually need.

If you are left-handed, the 360° base comes in hand when using this kettle. Some of the safety features include a codeless base with non-slip stands and a lift-off lid.
