The Coffee & Tea Taste Better
I purchased the Breville Smart Kettle for myself and loved it so much that I bought a second one as a gift for a family member. The glass design looks beautiful, the features are excellent, and it truly is a smart kettle. The precise temperature settings make coffee and tea taste noticeably better. I highly recommend it.

Beautiful kettle
This kettle looks super classy in our kitchen and I love the different temperature settings - no more guessing. Took a star off because it can be a bit slow to pour the water out unless you tilt at a very specific angle. Otherwise great purchase!

Best kettle
It’s functional with temperature control. We were after a kettle that is plastic free and this one ticks the boxed as its stainless steel and glass.

Fun & Perfect Kettle
Really happy with our kettle purchase! It makes a nice beep when water is boiled and it definitely boils in1/2 the time of our 5 year old Sunbeam kettle. Love the settings for green tea, other teas and coffee too. Will definitely recommend to my friends and family.

Breville smart kettle
Excellent kettle. Heats quickly and offers great temperature control tor different tess and coffee. The stronger hinge is effective but does prevent the lid opening quickly in preparation for filling. We have used the previous model for years but the thinner hinge failed after a few years of use. I recommend this.

- 1.7L Large Capacity: Boil enough water for up to 7 cups, perfect for families or entertaining.
- Cordless Jug with 360° Base: Easy to lift and pour from any angle, with convenient cord storage.
- Soft Top Lid: Gently releases steam and reduces splashing for safer pouring.

Q: Does the keep warm function stay on until you switch it off?
A: No. Breville The Smart Kettle keeps water at the selected temperature for 20 minutes per activation, then it stops. That suits making a few drinks over a short period, but it is not a continuous hold mode.
Q: Can this kettle heat water for coffee without boiling it fully?
A: Yes. Breville The Smart Kettle has a 95 degrees C setting for coffee, plus lower presets for green, white and oolong tea. That helps avoid using full boiling temperature when the drink calls for something lower.
Q: Is the jug easy to lift from either side?
A: Yes. The cordless jug sits on a 360-degree multi directional base, so it can be placed back from any angle. That is handy in shared kitchens and for either left-handed or right-handed use.
Q: Will the glass body make water levels easy to check?
A: Yes. The clear glass body makes the water level visible while filling and also makes it easier to spot residue or scale build-up. That can be useful if you want a quick visual check before boiling.
Q: How well does the lid control steam and splashing?
A: The Soft Top lid is designed for gentle steam release and reduced splashing when pouring. It favours a more controlled pour rather than an abrupt release, which can suit hot water service at the bench.
