This is a review of the Morphy Richards Kettle Accents model 43062 which is a stainless steel kettle featuring a black enamelled coating, with twin water gauge so you know how much water is in the kettle viewing it from each side (it can hold up to 1.5 litres, I boil only what I need at a time to save energy so keep a keen eye on this), but also rests on a 360 degree cordless base. Our kettle failed and as I enjoy a few cups of tea a day I was in a bit of a rush to replace it. Ok, so I feel rather foolish about the fact that this kettle purchase became my shining example of what happens when I don't make time to research the product. Instead, I allowed myself to succumb .  Read the complete review

I bought one of these from Robert Dyas, I NOW guss it must be a problem model as Robert Dyas were selling them at well under list price, manufacturer dumping a product they know if faulty? First one failed at 9 months, lid jammed and you scald your self with steam when you try and pour out boiling water, second one replaced by Robert Dyas failed in same way after 6 months, that is 15 months into a 24 month guarantee.

Would cost nearly £8 to send it back to Morphy Richards, and then it will only ...  Read the complete review

This kettle is very attractive and looks great in the kitchen when new, unfortunately it has not under gone very thorough testing by it's manufacturers. The black paint on the stainless steel body starts to come off where the top meets the lid and the lid jams after about 6 months use.

Has a two year guarantee, but who want's to go to the trouble and cost of sending it back. My first one lasted 9 months, the ...  Read the complete review

I purchased this kettle a couple of months ago and paid around £35 for it. So far, no problems with it. Main feature for me is that it is black and stylish which I found hard to find. It is a quiet, quick kettle and looks good. It has a flip lid (a button to flip it open for those not in the know!) Also it has a 2 year guarantee which a lot of kettles do not have. Excellent value for ...  Read the complete review
