It's available in four colours - Black, Blue, Grey and White. For an enhanced effect, there are elements of stainless steel mixed into the design, most notably on the handle, lid and around the base.

So far as features go, the Daewoo Argyle Kettle takes a modern approach. It has a mesh limescale filter inside the spout which is designed to stop large particles from entering your cup. It also has an automatic switch off function to indicate when the water inside has boiled. The heating element is concealed under the bottom of the kettle for safety and aesthetics.

Specification

We now take a look at the specification:

• Large Capacity - The Argyle Kettle's capacity is 1.7 litres, which is about 7 cups. It's a fairly average size for a modern electric kettle. Most are either 1.7 litres or 1.5 litres.
• Lift Off Lid - The kettle has a lift off lid. Such lids are better than hinged lids which tend to wear out quicker.
• Water Gauge - There's an external water gauge which tells you how much water is inside of the kettle. It also means that you can fill it with a minimal amount of water, therefore saving energy.
• Shut Off - The kettle shuts off automatically when the water has boiled, or manually as and when needed.
• 360 Degree Base - The kettle has a 360 degree rotational base. This means that the kettle can be placed down facing any angle on its base.
• Concealed Heating Element - The heating element is concealed underneath the floor of the kettle. As mentioned above, it's safer and better looking this way. It also helps increase the lifespan of the kettle due to keeping the element away from limescale.

Matching Toasters

There are two matching toasters (2 slice and 4 slice) available of each colour. They match the kettle in style. The toasters and kettles are available on amazon.co.uk.

Summary

Overall, the Daewoo Argyle Kettle is a good kettle. It meets our standards in terms of style, with a lovely textured design with stainless steel details mixed in. The features are good too, making the Argyle Kettle modern and practical. We particularly like the removable/washable limescale filter, and also the fact that there are both 2 slice and 4 slice matching toasters available. Overall, we rate the Daewoo Argyle Kettle 4.5 out of 5 stars.
