WeeKett Alexa Smart Kettle, Cool Touch, LED Display, 3000W, 1.7L Black

Excellent kettle, takes a little longer to boil (it stops to keep checking the temperature) but not enough to be problematic. Also a bit noisier than our previous one but again not to much to be a big issue. We did have a slight issue but this was solved very quickly and efficiently by a superb customer service team. Easy to set up in the app and sync with Alexa only a minor issue with dropping WiFi (that could be our router) it doesn’t seem to like multi frequency bands All in all would I have another one…………. Yes!

Bought this to upgrade from the silver Weekett kettle that we loved, all works perfectly, we just wanted this more stylish modern looking one, this new one is also 3000w rather than the older silver one at 2200w so it should boil quicker, but no this takes an age to boil, when it gets to the 80’s it then constantly turns on and off before it finally reaches 100c! Ok so that’s the first grievance, I contacted the manufacturers from Amazon, waited ages before I finally got an answer, when I did it was all scrambled and unreadable on my iPhone, no option to open in a browser so no idea what was said, the next grievance is that despite googling about it says you can get a replacement scale filter as it does not come with one but can’t find one that fits to order! Strange your other model does come with scale filter and you can buy replacements, and the last grievance and the most dangerous one is that the spout just pours water out sideways as well as forward, I were sliders indoors but you have to stand back as like I say when pouring it runs down the sides of the kettle splashing boiling water onto your feet! Ok things that do work but not well, for one when kettle is boiled and you have poured most of the water out, say to cook your veg with but then you want to fill the kettle straight back up again the kettle turns straight back on after placing it on the base, no I don’t want to heat without me asking or pressing a button, so that means we can’t leave water in there ready to make a drink when the dinners finished cooking, ok another thing is the power button on the kettle is not very sensitive, so you need to press it hard to work, not only that you have to press it twice to turn the kettle on, just easier to ask Alexa to boil the kettle, rather than tapping it a few times trying to keep it hard enough and hard enough twice! Looks good, nice having the temp displayed on the outside of the kettle all easy to read, one last thing our old silver Weekett kettle was single skinned but kept hot for ages, this double skinned new kettle gets cold very very quickly, wish we hadn’t of got rid of our old 😞

Absolutely love this kettle. So simple to just tell Alexa to put the kettle on or even just heat it to a certain temperature without having to get up and do it myself. I also like the fact you can choose to heat it to 70-100c, sometimes I want hot water for something but not boiling hot so this is convenient. Just a quick note about the keep warm feature. I couldn't get it to work and then realised after activating the keep warm feature you have to activate the power again for it to keep warm. Otherwise kettle remains off and doesn't keep it warm at the selected temperature. My only complaint is the kettle doesn't come with a limescale filter despite having the bracket for one (see picture) so you'll have to keep on top of limescale removal.

First one arrived and worked fine, but after two months the 'electrical light up digits' that display the temperature began failing. Wrote to supplier who send me a new one, after I submitted pictures and then returned my old kettle. Second one worked fine but now, one month later, the 'Keep Warm' button has stopped working! This is not a quality item, wish I hadn't bought it. On the plus side, it boils water (slowly). Have written to WeeKett to see what they say, it seems a bit daft that two kettles have failed within 5 months of first ordering it. Update : upgraded to 4*. Week it sent me the metal rather than the black plastic model. Connects perfectly, works perfectly, much quicker to boil and the water level is much easier to see. A couple of gimmicks - baby bottle warmer? - but that doesn’t detract from how good this kettle is. DO NOT GET THE COOL TOUCH VERSION! This is way better. And 100% to Weeket Customer Service who were very responsive and helpful.

I bought this kettle about 6 months ago and have had chance to live with it. Smart App and Alexa work work well however rarely used expect for the notification to say the kettle has finished. This is beacause the kettle needs water so if you are filling it anyway it's quicker just to press the on button than use the app/Alexa. As a kettle it is very efficient as it does not let the water bubble by switching the element off at certain stages of heating. This makes it a little slower than a normal fast boiler kettle but it's worth it as its around 20% more efficient. When close to empty and you are pouring it will leak from the sides this is the only draw back of the design. In general a solid kettle and gets smiles when people come round for a brew.

Absolutely love this kettle , easy to set up and easy to use. Unfortunately after a few months of use the led screen started to go and the temperature and function buttons became unreadable , this making the kettle harder to use. I contacted the seller and explained the situation to them and added a few pictures so they could see the issue. They contacted me straight away , apologised about the issue and sent a brand new replacement the same day. They followed up on the delivery process and made sure I was happy with the replacement once it arrived. The best customer service I have encountered in a long time. I Would not hesitate to recommend this product or seller.

I bought all three of these smart kettles because I couldn’t find a single review that answered enough of my questions, so I hope this helps someone. I tested each kettle using 1.5 litres of water. All connected easily to their apps and to my Alexa devices. I use Google WiFi and had no issues with any of them, despite many reviews mentioning connectivity problems. DMD Collective Smart Kettle 1.5L – 5 stars This one ended up being my clear favourite. It looks great, is the lightest of the three, and performs really well for a 2200w kettle. Weight with 1.5L: 2.45 kg Boil time: 05:33 minutes, or 04:50 using the quick boil option Pour: Excellent, very smooth even when full Buttons: Fast and reliable Noise: A touch louder than the Swan but still fine to talk next to Lid: Opens and closes smoothly with a good, solid feel A week on, this is the one I’ve kept and I’m very happy with it. Swan Alexa Smart Kettle 1.5L – 4 stars A good kettle overall and it arrived already connected to WiFi and Alexa which was a nice bonus. It sits in the middle for weight, performance, and general feel. Weight with 1.5L: 2.58 kg Boil time: 06:18 minutes, the slowest of the three and the main reason I didn’t keep it Pour: Very good once the first cup has gone through Buttons: Decent, though sometimes needed a firmer press Noise: Quietest of the three Lid: Smooth enough but not as premium feeling as the DMD If it boiled faster, this would have been a strong contender. WeeKett Alexa Smart Kettle 1.7L – 2 stars On paper this looked like the best value with the bigger capacity and 3000w power. Sadly it was the most disappointing to use. The extra weight and straight handle made it awkward for my partner to lift. Weight with 1.5L: 2.66 kg, the heaviest Boil time: 05:04 minutes, the quickest Pour: Poor. The big spout caused splashing and made a mess Buttons: Very unresponsive and often needed repeated presses and completely dry fingers Noise: Very loud. Hard to hold a conversation next to it Lid: Only partly opens with the button and feels flimsy A shame because I expected this one to be the winner, but it was the only kettle I ruled out straight away. All three kettles were around the same price for me, about £46 in the black friday sale. After comparing them side by side, the DMD Collective kettle was easily the best overall experience and the one I decided to keep.

I bought this kettle to make it easier for my mum to use due to mobility issues. Firstly, if you want to use the 'smart features', it is important to know that you need to install a separate app. Fine. To be able to use the smart features, you need to pay an additional subscription to said app. Not fine. The app is not user friendly and essentially all it allows you to do (for £40/year) is use your phone to boil the kettle. I bought the subscription because I felt responsible for buying the kettle in the first place, but it won't let me add anyone else to the group. The support for the app is very poor Secondly, the kettle takes a long time to boil!! If you're in a rush, you might as well fill a pan and boil your water on the hob. When the kettle has finally finished boiling, it beeps obnoxiously loud 3 times which I haven't found a way of turning off. When you're ready to pour your water, you need to allow for about 70% wastage as most of it ends up on the surface and floor - keep a towel ready! Thirdly, the keep warm function is not as useful as you might think. I thought this was a really good feature when reading the description, however, it operates by bringing the water up to the specified temperature, then just persistently cools down a few degrees then reboils, over and over for an hour. It's a nice feature in theory, but in practice is incredibly annoying! Also, for clarity, it's not an Alexa kettle, it just works with Alexa. I have used this kettle enough to be able to honestly say that I would strongly advise people not to buy this kettle - it takes ages to boil, you have to pay extra for the smart features, it pours water mostly on the floor, has a few annoying features, and I really, really wish I hadn't bought it!

Very good product

Ah it's a nuisance..it pauses 4 or 5 times on the way to 100° as if it forgets what 'boiling' is. Steam comes out all around the lid when it's thinking about the 100° mark. Who really needs a 'smart' kettle - its not smart enough to fill itself with water so you're going to have to go over to it anyway..

Not a very smart kettle at all. Was disappointing to learn there are only four preset temperatures possible, none of which is 95 degrees the most common temperature used for brewing coffee with a variety of methods such as Chemex, V60 or Aeropress. The lid does not open full either which makes filling from a water filter jug more of an ordeal than it needs to be.
