Fast boiling - less than 1 minute for the water for two mugs of tea (3000W; it's capacity is for 1.7L - around 6 mugs). THE PRICE: One of the bemusing things about this kettle is the variability in price between what essentially appear just to be different coloured kettles (although they all seem to have slightly different model numbers - the functionality is identical).
