## Description

An essential feature of every kitchen is the kettle - an appliance we all turn to for a whole variety of uses; the main of course is to make tea or coffee. What many hot drink lovers do not realise is that coffees and teas are supposed to be made with different temperature water to achieve the best taste. For instance, it has been discovered over recent years that instant coffee should not be made with boiling water as this will just burn the coffee beans immediately. Who knew?! The Duronic EK42 kettle is setting the trend in the eco-style kitchen; with the ability to parboil water and keep it warm for up to 30 minutes, you’ll find that instead of firing up the kettle every single time you want a cuppa will be a thing of the past. Great for those mornings when you might need a second cup to start your day, you can simmer your water for 30 minutes at exactly the temperature you want, saving you time and energy.

## Features

- ECO-FRIENDLY FAST BOIL: Some tea and coffee drinks require boiling water, and some others don’t. Using boiling water on coffee for instance, burns the coffee granules and gives it a bitter flavour. With the EK42 kettle you can avoid this problem by boiling your water to less-than-boiling temperatures. Not only does it make your drink taste nice, it also saves energy too.

- VARIABLE TEMPERATURE CONTROL: Easy to reach buttons on the handle of this kettle allow you to alter the temperature of the water you want to heat up. Choose from 40°c, 60°c, 90°c or 100°c depending on what beverage you are making. 40°c is ideal for Lemsips and hot water bottles, 60°c is for unique coffees, 80°c is ideal for tea and standard coffees, and 100°c is for black tea and some other herbal teas.
- KEEP WARM FUNCTION: Another great function of this Duronic water boiler is that after heating your water up you can press the ‘Keep Warm’ button to keep the water in the kettle at the same hot temperature for up to 30 minutes. This is perfect if you usually like to go for second drink after your first one, of if you know someone else will want a hot drink shortly after you.
- CORDLESS DESIGN WITH ADDED SAFETY FEATURES: For safety and convenience reasons we have designed this kettle to be cordless and have a 360° base which enables you to lift the kettle from any direction you wish making it idea for both left-handed and right-handed users. Additional safety features include auto shut-off and boil dry protection. The front of the kettle has a transparent water gauge window that allows you to see how full the kettle is.
- FEATURES AND SPECIFICATIONS: Colour: stainless-steel. Cordless design. Quiet operation compared to other kettles on the market. Easy lift lid - press the lid button on the side with the handle. Temperature settings 40-100°c. Visible transparent window to show indication of the water level. Concealed heating element. Notification beep lets you know when the kettle is finished heating. Strong stainless-steel spout filter. Easy to clean and descale. Power: 2500W-3000W. Jug capacity: 1.7L

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A kettle with the WOW factor!
*by D***E on 15 October 2022*

This is a smart looking and a quiet kettle.I really like the temperature indicator, a red light shows when it heats up to 40C, 60C, 80C and 100C. Heating a kettle to fill a hot water bottle used to be a bit hit & miss with my cheap old kettle but with this Duronic Electric Kettle EK42, I can heat it to 80C accurately.At 100C I can hear & see the water boiling in the water level window so I switch it off - WELL before the auto shut-off..........to save money on the electric and prevent the kitchen steaming up.I like the handle, this kettle is comfortable to hold and not too heavy when filled with water.I don't like the long delay before the kettle auto shut-off happens. I don't like the water level window, it's VERY poor. I find it very difficult to see the water. I have to move (jiggle) the kettle to make the water move and then the water level is visible. I don't like the hinged lid. I find it difficult to open.Despite all my negative comments, I do like this kettle and for me it has the WOW factor.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good kettle, infuriating lid
*by D***A on 17 April 2022*

I would have given this kettle 5 stars for build quality and temperature/stay warm options. However the spring operated lid is poorly made/designed as it sometimes takes several attempts to get it to open which is really annoying. The lid will also sometimes spring open while it is boiling which could be potentially dangerous and cause scalding. It’s a shame because it is a well made kettle that boils quickly and quietly and heats water to the perfect temperature for coffee too. If we were using water straight from the tap the lid wouldn’t be an issue, however we use filtered water from a jug, so this makes the kettle a disappointing buy for the money.

### ⭐ Impressive until seven months in
*by R***T on 21 June 2021*

I've raved about this kettle for seven months. Looks good, lid no less dizzy than most supermarket kettles. Temperature made a tea, coffee or chocolate a sensational improvement to a traditional kettle. Saved time and made me feel that I was conserving energy.Incidentally, the secret to excellent taste, ( if you have any mineral content at all in supply, even slight scaling ), is to always boil the full contents of the kettle (100degC) once. Use the lower temps for reheating, then the phosphates and other minerals don't create scum or leave aftertaste. They either boil off or they balance better as a result of the first proper boil. This fact does work against why you bought a temp controlled kettle but I'm convinced it is the only way forward with such appliances.Problem cropped up this morning where it would always boil when placed on the stand before pressing anything. No water ingress into buttons (well, not from tap, perhaps some from steam condensation but that wouldn't be operator error). Sometimes the internal click/relay happens so you can override it when you are just placing the kettle back.I've ordered a different brand and as is the nature of selling on Amazon. Buyer beware that you probably need insurance with a Duronic if your ~£35 is as hard earned as it is for most of us.I went to get support and it is a fob-off page that you get that doesn't link to this order or integrate with Amazon. Sure you might be contacted back. Thankfully, entering into a conversation with Amazon directly, works marvels if your case is the similar to mine. Amazon are coming to collect this short lived article. THANK-YOU !As far as I know, credit card purchase electrical/electronic goods still come with 2yr warranty even after leaving the EU fortress. Any electrical purchase is certainly good for 12 months and probably there is an expectation from the UK consumer protection for goodwill even beyond 2yrs even for this class of appliance. A kettle and temperature setting is a fairly simply thing, even if it had a keep-to-temp setting, the electronics can be super controlled by a fancy circuit with high power control but really, it could also be done with invar-brass and an engaging lever (for both the temp and whether it maintains the temp, the latter feature I actually didn't want and wouldn't risk without boil-dry protection, which the kettle doesn't have). Cost of manufacture has semiconductor doing the job of two strips of metal more effectively, which does seem strange to those who remember simpler times.Loved the kettle until it died. My previous kettle was a ball design £13 Tesco rapid boil kettle and that, even with some button wear and scaling, is still working better than this £35 upgrade from late 2020. But I've had pleasant tasting hot drinks from the Duronic until it went to rats.Duronic, if you can't make a reliable panel then either stick to on/off switches without this level of control or improve your design. I would have willingly paid £5-£10 for a snap-in replacement module to save this whole kettle going to landfill/scrapmerchant. Although any such modules should be versioned as you learn how to make decent electronics that'll last and ensure maximum safety.Thanks Amazon, for the chance to give a review. The old adage that we should buy from Amazon where there are thousands of 4/5* reviews and less than 0.01% negative low star ratings, rings true.
