Stainless Steel Kettles

Stainless Steel Kettles

A stainless steel kettle suits a kitchen where finish matters as much as function, and the material itself splits into brushed and polished. Brushed steel resists fingerprints and everyday marks better, while polished steel gives a brighter, mirror-like look that shows smudges more readily. Quiet boil technology cuts down the whistle and rattle of a full boil, which matters in an open-plan kitchen or a house with an early riser. Temperature-adjustable models let tea and delicate brews stop short of a full boil, since boiling water scalds green tea and some herbal blends.

Russell Hobbs leads the range with the Snowdon, Adventure and Buckingham lines in brushed and polished finishes plus a Quiet Boil model. Morphy Richards covers Quiet Boil and Illumination jug kettles in brushed steel, and Ninja supplies the Perfect Temperature Rapid Boil kettle for precise brewing control.

Stainless steel sits above the plastic bodied kettles on price and lasts longer, so a reduction here is usually what moves a buyer from a kettle that will be replaced in two years to one that will not. Prices are live all year, so see what is reduced now on kettles on sale, or the Black Friday kettle deals.
