It takes very long time to filter, and I could probably boil it quicker by holding it really close to my chest on a sunny day. Let me tell you all the things wrong with it. Firstly is the little problem of the filter and boiling process. This would be a bigger problem if the water went through the filter at any rate of measurable knots, but meh.

Premium Review Brita Acclario: A kettle you never need to descale! (425 words)

I bought this kettle because I'm a bit of a tea nut (sad, I know!). My friend told me it would make a huge difference to the taste of tea, and convinced me to buy one. The kettle is quite bulky and not especially pretty to look at. You pour water from the tap into a small reservoir at the top, and gravity causes it to fall through the water filter (just like on a fridge filter). At the bottom is a heating element, so that when enough water has fallen through, you can flick a switch and boil it. The system is easy to use, but it does have one flaw: it takes quite a long time to filter. If, like me, you're an impatient person who just wants a cuppa NOW, ...  Read the complete review

I'VE UPDATED THIS TO REFLECT THE FIRST 3 MONTH'S USE. AND NOW BACK TO THE PLOT.... The Brita Acclario? OK, I know it sounds more like a kit-built British sports cars, but it's actually the latest offering from Brita, makers of portable water filtration "solutions" (God, I hate that word!). So, Brita have brought out another water jug, so what? Not content with the basic version of their now-familiar clear acrylic and white plastic jug, Brita then followed up with the dearer version with a liquid-crystal timer in the lid to warn of impending exhaustion of the filter (after all, we wouldn't want you to ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Brita Acclario: Hot stuff? Well, not right away. (768 words)

I'm writing this for two reaons. Firstly is for you, the dooyoo community, who deserves to hear the voice of experience on kettles. Secondly, is to annoy my tea-loving mother. Because she covets this kettle. I'll give you a quick description so this is all in context for you: The kettle is a fairly large unit, with a corded base that the kettle itself comes away from. Quite nifty, but come on, this is the 21st century - everything is wireless. The kettle is then divided into two main parts - the bottom boiling section, with a flat metallic heating element (good for the fight against limescale, or so I've heard). It holds about a litre and a half or ...  Read the complete review

Living in Shropshire, we suffer dreadfully from hard water. I was finding I need to descale my old kettle on a weekly basis, otherwise I would get strange bits floating in my tea - urgggh!!! Thereford when the Brita Acclario first hit the market - I immediately went out to buy one. It did everything it said it would do. Firstly, you have to wash the filter to get rid of any air bubbles, and then you place the filter within the "hopper" in the top part of the kettle. The kettle comes with one of two types of lid - a) the type you remove to fill or b) the type with a whole in the top for putting the water in. My kettle had type ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Brita Acclario: a kettle that can multi task (1102 words)

Where we live the waters not bad and we don't really need to filter it but my Father in Laws water is so bad that some days it is undrinkable. Because of this he filters all his water and if he dosen't he has to descale his kettle about once a month. He has up until just recently has a separate filter jug and kettle but they took up so much space in his small kitchen. We noticed the Brita Acclario filter kettle in Argos a few months ago while we were looking to get him a fridge jug which although notideal would at least save him a little space. The kettles were priced at around £45 but he was needing a new kettle anyway so he said if we wanted to buy him one to ...  Read the complete review
