Vektra VEK-1201B Vacuum Insulated Environmentally Eco Friendly Easy Pour Cordless Kettle, 1.2 Litre, Black/Red

It pours really well once the lid is easily taken off. Indeed all 1.5 litres can be poured in a few seconds without spillage. It also reduces the irritation of the wife switching the kettle on, then walking away, only to come back 20 minutes later and repeat the operation as it keeps the water pretty hot or at least reduces the power necessary to reboil the water.

The kettle is excellent and unlike any others easily found, keeping the water you boil hot for up to 4 hours - truly eco and not gimmicky. Seemingly very solid build, though initially it was missing a rubber plug, and now t's just broken at the 2 year mark (trips the electricity now)! Vektra/Grunwerg customer service when I first needed to replace it was beyond terrible (i.e. unresponsive), but Amazon came to the rescue that 1st time and replaced the kettle. Now the kettle failed just the week before the 2 year warranty ended, but I didn’t have time to report it till the week after the warranty period. This time it’s a proper failure as we can’t use it without knocking all our sockets out! Amazon were useless and said ‘on your bike, nothing happening here’; Vektra by total contrast were responsive and have replaced the kettle, even though originally bought from Amazon. Thank you Vektra!

I didn't think you could get excited about a kettle but this one is great! Had it 2 days, so review so far ..... Its not a rapid boil, but then it doesn't need to be. It really does keep the water hot enough to make tea / coffee for a good few hours (I've not timed it properly) so as soon as I fancy a cup I can make one instantly. Its perfect for me as I tend to put the kettle on, go back to the laptop and do some work then forget I was making a hot drink and have to start the cycle again, but no more, as soon as I remember I was making a coffee the kettle is still hot enough and for the 2nd, 3rd, 4th....(I drink too much coffee) cup there's no waiting for the kettle to boil. All the interior is stainless steel (except the underside of the lid) and no plastic water gauge. When the water is poured it does go through a plastic spout but that is the only time the water is in contact with plastic. I saw another review mention a slow pour, but I've not found that to be the case. I was concerned I may not be able to pour and press the release lever as I've only got small hands but actually its not a problem at all. Unexpected plus side - I've not noticed any steam escape the kettle during the boil so it doesn't matter where I sit the kettle (eg: under wall cupboards) as condensation no longer an issue. Minor downside - the kettle is a little on the heavy side when empty, which isn't a problem for me but may be for others. I was worried when I first got it out of the box but after using it the weight is fine. If I have any problems I'll update the review but so far I'm really happy.

Great product that works as well as it is intended too. My issue is that I first owned the larger kettle and for me this is just too small and does not hold enough liquid I can not fault the product but would suggest you look at the larger kettle size I am regretting the smaller replacement. 3 stars is because the spares for the product are not available and if you have an issue with the product you can not buy spares anywhere for the product - which is a serious problem around an electrical product that should be repairable you can not even but the lid

When first purchased this was ok. Kept hot for an hour or so. Gradually this reduced and now its basically a normal kettle. Gets hot to touh, and loses heat like normal. I would guess the number of wires and heating elements that need to penetrate the dewer bottle inside make the vacuum leak and once air seaps in over a few months (especially with heat expansion cycles when in use) it's just a normal kettle. Very disappointed as its so expensive and takes just a bit too long to return.

Good kettle but does have some flaws 1st you have limited capacity about 4 decent cups 2 there is a button which lets the water out could be better positioned Takes 4 mins approximately from cold to boil On the heavy side On the plus side uses under half the power of our old kettle approximately 1.3 kW instead of 3kw Once it's boiled you can't boil the kettle until it goes cold enough saving more energy so know one can re boil the kettle Stays warm for quite some time so the water if re boiled takes no time at all No steam at all so no kids getting scalded and kettle was knocked over when hot and full but didn't leak very impressed great if you have kids like me In all a good buy at the discount price fast delivery well thought out product far more positives than negatives worth the money

I really really wanted this kettle to be good because of what it states it can do, unfortunately the reality is that it doesn’t. First of all we boiled 3 kettles worth of water like it says to do before using it properly and what we found was, where the lid had been placed (upside down mind) while filling it, each time there was a substantial puddle of water, so permanently having to mop up water to use the kettle or have water dribble all down your arm and onto what’s underneath your arm if you hold the lid, that wouldn’t have been a deal breaker if it did what it’s supposed to do, it doesn’t keep the water hot, it states that after 2 hours the water will be 80 degrees C, I tried to make a coffee after an hour and the water was tepid at best, I tried it a couple of times but no, I’ve give it 2 stars for the 2 things it is good at, 1. It can boil water relatively quickly. & 2. The outside of the kettle isn’t scalding hot so if you accidentally brush past it you won’t burn yourself, really really disappointed.☹️

Optisch sehr ansprechend und auch nicht so überdimensional. Gute Warmhalteleistung über ca. 4 Stunden. Allerdings braucht er verhältnismäßig lange und ist auch relativ laut, daher ein Punktabzug.

ممتازه وعمليه

Franchement, l'eau refroidit vite, le côté isotherme est sans doute difficile à conjuger directement dans la bouilloire

احببته في المنتج انها ١٢٠٠ واط ماتستهلك للكهرب بس فيها عيب انه تبرد المنتج

Wasserkocher kommt nicht mit EU- Stecker, leider so nicht nutzbar… gehe mal einen Adapter kaufen und berichte weiter ..
