I have to say that this kettle is perhaps the worst kettle I've ever owned. Whilst it looks lovely, it's dangerous and difficult to use.

However when put to the test it is less than ideal, the on/off rocker switch seems to have a mind of its own- and sometimes you have to fight with it just to get it stay on.
