About Russell Hobbs

The 20445 Westminster Kettle is designed by Russell Hobbs, who have been in the electric kitchenware industry since the 1950s. Their reputation is strong, and they've proved themselves trustworthy and reliable.

Specification

Some of the features are as follows:

  • Capacity - 1.7 Litres / 6-7 cups.
  • Dimensions - 21.4cm x 23.2cm x 23.6cm.
  • Fast Boiling - As a fast boil kettle, the Westminster can boil 1 cup (235ml) in around 45 seconds. Handy if you're itching for a quick cup of tea or coffee before work or an appointment.
  • Lid Flip Button - The lid is controlled by a push button on top of the handle. It's placed in the perfect position, so that if you're holding the handle, your thumb can press the button. An extremely convenient feature.
  • Illuminating On/Off Switch - The on/off switch illuminates when the kettle is boiling.
  • Water Filter - There's a spout water filter which reduces limescale and other unwanted particles in the water from entering your drink. It not only makes your drink less gritty, but it also improves the colour and taste. A must have in England. The water filter is removable, washable and reusable.
  • Up to 70% Energy Saving - The kettle has an up to 70% energy saving when compared to some regular kettles.
  • Perfect Pour Spout - The kettle is designed to produce the "perfect pour", that is, to reduce splashing and spilling when pouring. It achieves this by streamlining the water into a steady flow.
  • Water Gauge - The side of the kettle has a water gauge, so that you can fill the kettle with the exact amount of water required. This helps save energy, and therefore money.

Final Thoughts

To summarise, the Russell Hobbs 20445 Westminster Kettle is, in our view, an excellent kettle. The large number of practical elements, as listed above, together with the compact design and sleek finish, make the Westminster Kettle a solid choice. We particularly like the energy efficiency measures, especially the up to 70% energy saving. Therefore, this kettle is perfect if you're conscious of energy usage.
