Newest Review: ... This is a fairly reasonable, but maybe a little high price. The kettle is simple and doesn't look ugly. It is white plastic with no... more

Advantages: Everything about it

Disadvantages: None

My kettle broke down last week, so I decided to look through the Argos catalogue for a new one.

Where I live the water is horrible, it's so bad that the rim of your mug, is stained with a thick brown slime.
So I had this in mind when considering my purchase.

I spotted a Russel Hobbs New Millennium 1.7L Jug kettle that seems to fit my requirements.

It has a removeable, washable anti-scale filter. In practice this really does work, all the slime collects in the filter, so it's just a matter of regulary cleaning the filter. My tea is no where near as bad as it was before.

Also the kettle is designed to last longer, due to the scale resistant disc element.

The kettle also has a hinged locking lid, you can see the water level through a little window, and it rotates on a swivel base.

The kettle also boils twice as fast as ordinary kettles, this saves you money on electricity.

If you live in a hard or soft water area I would recommend this kettle.
Remember you are drinking that slime, and it can make you ill, I have been physically sick on many occasions after drinking tea full of slime. Now you can do something about it.

The kettle is a bit pricey at £34.50, but it's well worth it.

If your water is that bad, you should complain to your water company.

I beat you catawall. I had 3 in 6 months and we hadn't even reached the Millenium at that time. Great kettle while it lasted, would have been even better had a got more than 3 months life out of one of them. Good luck cindy1!!
