Review: Excellent Low‑Noise Kettle fast boil would recommend - This kettle is excellent. I find very quiet for a 3kW model, boils quickly, and it feels really responsive. I removed the internal plastic single‑cup measure as I don’t think it’s necessary, but everything else has been spot on. delivery as promised and a great kettle looks good, good value and I would recommend. Early days but Easy 5 stars so far . Review: Great quality, quiet boil kettle. - This is the second one of these I have owned. The first I had for many years before developing a fault. The kettle is well constructed and good quality. It boils water very quickly and is very quiet (comparatively speaking). Overall a solid kettle at a good price. ## Features - Brushed stainless steel kettle with Russell Hobbs embossed - Quiet boil technology 75% quieter - Rapid boil zone feature - Denoting 1/2/3 cup volumes - Boil one cup of water in 45 seconds ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00K8S89YI | | Best Sellers Rank | 159 in Home & Kitchen ( See Top 100 in Home & Kitchen ) 1 in Electric Kettles | | Brand | Russell Hobbs | | Brand Name | Russell Hobbs | | Cable Length | 0.62 Metres | | Capacity | 1.7 litres | | Colour | Stainless Steel | | Container Type | Kettle | | Country of Origin | China | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 out of 5 stars 24,863 Reviews | | Finish Type | Brushed | | Included Components | Removable Filter | | Item Type Name | Electric Kettle | | Item Weight | 1.21 kg | | Manufacturer | Spectrum Brands UK Ltd | | Manufacturer Contact Information | Russell Hobbs Deutschland GmbH, Am Unisyspark 1, 65843 Sulzbach, Germany.

My replacement kettle also went rusty fairly quickly. It is not in a damp or unventilated room so the problem lies with the kettle. It is a shame as otherwise it looks good. I won't bother buying another one the same. **Q: Does the design of the filter allow it to be emptied 100% through the spout? Some kettles have a filter that's raised from the surface of the kettle.** A: The filter is raised as you have described, however I was able to empty the kettle just through the spout. The filter looks like it can be removed but I have not tried. **Q: Is the spout filter completely concealed when it is fitted to the kettle? It appears so from the photograph in the product description.** A: You instal the filter from inside the kettle, slipping the bottom filter catch into position and then pushing the top of the filter so it clicks into place. The filter 'bulges' into the kettle when assembled. **Q: Don't quite know how but we've lost the spout filter.....looked all over the net but can't find spares anywhere?** A: I`m not surprised. The wretched thing is small & easily lost. I don`t bother to remove it & let a descaler run through it when cleaning. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Low‑Noise Kettle fast boil would recommend *by R***T on 23 March 2026* This kettle is excellent.

The first I had for many years before developing a fault. The kettle is well constructed and good quality. It boils water very quickly and is very quiet (comparatively speaking). Overall a solid kettle at a good price. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is my 3rd Kettle now ! *by S***D on 16 June 2021* I have always had Russell Hobbs kettles as did my parents before me, but we usually bought the "traditional" shape ones. This is now my 3rd kettle of this particular model and they seem to be lasting 4 years each ! Firstly they are a good kettle, and virtually noiseless for about 8-9 months, then the noise increases, so like a good customer I bought their official 'Multi Purpose Descaler' which isn't cheap, and that cures the problem for 2 months if you are lucky, then you need to repeat the process and you only get 5 doses in each bottle, I bought 3 bottles - so basically one it starts getting noisy there is no cure, so don't waste your money on the descaler, I suppose how long the noiseless last depends on your water hardness softness too, out water is very, very slightly limey, you really don't get any limescale build up inside the kettle though as such. Regarding the lid sticking by other reviewers. this has personally never happened to us. Also the 'plastic' taste in the water, once gain we have never found that, and my only thought is that are people filling the kettle to max, boiling it, throwing the water out and repeating the operation - as stated in the instructions ? Wouldn't be the first time people haven't read the instructions, and that includes me sometimes by the way. Now for my BIG grumble and one that Russell Hobbs SHOULD address that is the on/off switch. It seems these are designed to fail, every 4 years in our case, as that has happened to both out last 2 kettles, and I feel sure it will happen to this new one too. in 4 years time I might add that the traditional Russell Hobbs kettles lasted at least 15 years, and IF you were unlucky you might need to replace the element, I and I have replaced at least 500 on the old style ones (Saturday Job), but that that was it, people loved those kettles. Right, back to my point, the on/off tab that you press down eventually fails and snaps off... why ? because it is just plastic and I suspect the heat from the bottom of the kettle also makes it fail and snap. It is absolutely impossible to repair, because it snaps of at the furthermost point, you just can't get into it and repair it safely, I have worked in electrical/electronics virtually all my life, along with a period in design so I have a lot more insight/experience into these sort of problems. This design or material choice (why not make the stem out of metal, then attach the plastic bit on the end of the stem ?) is making people throw away a perfectly usable kettle, everting else was perfectly fine on the two I binned. We are supposed to making everything sustainable and NOT throw away perfectly good electrical goods for a simple fix... Russell Hobbs please listen ! I nearly gave this 3 stars, but when it is working it is fine, the noise is a problem after a while but I can live with that, but the switch snapping off is just criminal really though, look how many customers have reported this. The big question is when (... not if) this switch fails again, will I buy another Russell Hobbs question, well no unless they address the issue. I personally have supported Russel Hobbs for 50 years now, and as I say my parents did too, but is it now time to call it a day ? We shall see in 4 years time... over to you Russell Hobbs. ## Frequently Bought Together - Russell Hobbs Brushed Stainless Steel Electric 1.7L Cordless Kettle (Quiet & Fast Boil 3KW, Removable washable anti-scale filter, Push button lid, Perfect pour spout) 20460 - Russell Hobbs 2 Slice Toaster with Perfect Toast Technology for improved evenness (Wide slots, Lift & look feature, 6 Browning levels, Frozen & Cancel function, 850W, Brushed & Stainless Steel) 24080 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/47957961-russell-hobbs-brushed-stainless-steel-electric-1-7l-cordless-kettle](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/47957961-russell-hobbs-brushed-stainless-steel-electric-1-7l-cordless-kettle) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-06-06*
