Morphy RichardsHive Kettle, 1.5L, Easy Fill System, Enhanced Waterspout, 3KW Rapid Boil, 360 Degree Base, Limescale Filter, Water Viewing Window, White, 108274

Great kettle. Fantastic value. Nice and light to use. Just fill up through the top. No lifting of lids. Love it. Good capacity and noise level is fine. Love it.

Unless you have a big household that drinks a lot of hot drinks, the smaller size of this kettle is ideal as it stops you from wasting electricity by boiling a smaller volume of water.The exterior casing is easy to clean - just wipes clean - and the design is quite funky too, with a neutral colour fitting in with most kitchen colour schemes.Whilst the innovative filling point is great - no need to remove the lid, just pour water straight through it - it does mean that you inevitably get some limescale appearing in there. This is especially true as when the kettle boils steam comes out through this vent too, and deposits calcium there - maybe only in hard water areas?It's easily sorted though with a little white vinegar and a soak for a couple of hours - and I guess I'd rather have this than a springy lid that breaks after a year or two of regular use. Plus, it's a talking point - and who doesn't need more kitchen gadgets with talking points eh?!

Bought to match toaster. Beautiful kettle, easy to handle and fill. Lid doesn’t come off, you fill kettle through centre of lid!!! Quite innovative and impressive. Just wonder how in future I can descale it?Bit slow when pouring from it but still good

smart lookjing and light, filling up without taking top off works very well

Great replacement for kettle that broke. So nice just to fill from top without having to remove lid. Quick to boil and spout doesn’t splash as much as last one. I recommend

This kettle looks great and boils very quickly. The best feature is that it can be filled without removing the lid which is perfect for my elderly mother.I would happily buy one of these myself for our own kitchen. It is also a tried and tested brand and comes with a 2 year guarantee. What's not to like?

Love this kettle! I've had it a few months now and it is perfect for my use case. My water quality went a bit iffy and so I bought a BRITA water jug, in particular for use for tea. But filling my otherwise fabulous Breville kettle from the jug was a pain - you had to yank off the tight top as the spout fill was too small for a jug pour. This kettle solves that by being fill-able without taking the top off. It is also gorgeous to look at and is significantly lighter than the all metal Breville, a good thing in my book. I haven't noticed it to be particularly louder (or quieter?) then the Breville. The pour from boiling is rock steady, much more so than the Breville which would occasionally spit. Overall I am delighted with it!

Nice looking kettle and works fine, actually boils water really quick. It's just not very well thought out. The fill level window is right behind the handle so you can't see it if you're holding it to fill it and the markings are clear so near enough impossible to read anyway. Means getting the right amount of water is a bit of a guess. The funnel in the lid is a nice idea but again, not very well thought out. It's a convenient way to fill it but water goes through so slowly it also makes it hard to judge how much you're putting in. If you've got a lot of water in the kettle then it comes out through the filler cap as well so you need to be really careful with it. And it turns into a chimney when boiling and releases a huge amount of steam.And this was clearly a returned item. Box was battered and had obviously been opened. No manual or warranty cards. Left in the rain too by the delivery driver, brilliant idea for an electrical item. Never even attempted to knock.
