Pros & Cons
Pros
Perfect pour spout does a great job at eliminating splashes. Easy to change filter ( albeit a little fiddly). Kettle and filter works well with no signs of limescale.
Boils water quickly and quietly. This gets to the state my other kettles were within a couple of weeks in 3 months. Can't fault this kettle at all.
The kettle itself at £56 is exceptionally good value. Really nice kettle, no metallic or plastic taint. It is heavy, bear that in mind.
Cons
When it boils is sounds like a jet engine as it is so noisy, i even have to turn the radio up as this thing just drowns it out. The kettle leaks like a sieve all over the base plate which worries me from a safety point of view.
Russell hobbs is a pathetic excuse for a kettle. Takes forever to filter.

Filter failed to function before it's time up, even though it was prefed from a filter jug, leaving lime scale on the heated base.
I had three previously that were all made of plastic and on each of them the lid broke after a relatively short period of time.
Price
Almost £50 for a kettle shows how crazy the world has become.
Costs have ballooned since 2020 and so hopefully we get 4yrs again as that makes it a bargain
Since the water company seems to be charging us a fortune for water that tastes awful we’ve always filtered the water before making tea.
Only issue for me is the crazy price.
Packaging/appearance
Luckily when it arrived it looks good and solidthe glass looks nice but sometimes i myself will doubt a bit if it's glass or pl... Read More
Competitiveness
There are very few kettles on the market now that take the britta filter.

The biggest positive is that it takes away the need of a separate filter jug meaning less clutter on my kitchen sides
