Pros & Cons
Pros
The breville kettle works, except at the highest setting. The instructions say to clean periodically with a descaling product or a vinegar and water mix, and boil. Heats much fast than my previous breville and works extremely well for making pour over... Read More
Quality overall is great especially the beeping noises when boiling is done. The selectors on the base are easy to use. Highly recommend this appliance.
For oolong and other asain black teas, go a little higher-at least 190, but never boiling. An absolute necessity for brewing different types of tea and different methods of coffee brewing.
As with everything, it pays to read and follow all the advice in the directions! Maybe that's why you don't like it. Otherwise it's terrific.
Cons
Using the kettle in a small residence while a partner or roomate is still in bed is impossible due to the repeated beeping. It beeps randomly and won't boil water. There is a fair amount of plastic that is exposed to boiling water and steam.
However the bke720bss has some flaws which render it unusable for me. Looks nice but it’s complete junk. Nobody cares about the leather electric seats in a car with a junk engine.
Highlights
Quality
Using the kettle for over a year and it still looks and works like new, good product
I highly recommend this well built, quality electric kettle!
There is an obnoxious beep when you remove kettle from the base, place it back, hit any button, and when it finishes heating.
) and worse, after a few months, the button that opens the lid stopped working.

I am so happy i chose this one, although it was more expensive.
I purchased this used for a deal so wasn't certain what to expect but have been so pleasantly surprised.

I love this kettle the same way as many other appliances from breville i have.

The previous model developed a leak right below the handle area that connects to the kettle

I guess breville won’t replace it even though it was less than a year old

Sometimes the spring that compresses to release the lid doesnt compress enough
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Its very minor as you can wiggle it open and once its open you can press in the little tab that sticks out to unlock the lid with your finger
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Compress it all the way with your finger and that should fix it
