Breville High Gloss 2 Slice Toaster with High-Lift & Wide Slots | Grey & Stainless Steel [VTT968]

Looks great and boils really quickly.

A very good stylish kettle well balanced and no over pour- the push button lid opener is a good feature.

Bought this kettle 2 years ago, and it’s recently started leaking when pouring from the spout. I would actually buy it again as it’s been great until very recently and matches my kitchen perfectly. I love a lightweight kettle and it’s stylish too.

Quick boiling, nice looking kettle

Firstly, this is a nicely designed if 'retro' kettle. The only other positive is it is easy enough to fill and the push button lid is nice even if it doesn't always open very well. However, there are quite a few negatives. First and foremost is the colour. This kettle is not cream, it is more of a mocha or grey. See my pictures for comparison against my old cream kettle and my cream coffee machine. I'm REALLY disappointed by the colour as it does not match any of the other appliances in my largely cream kitchen. There are also other 'niggles' It is loud, much louder than my old Breville The spout is terrible. It looks large but the limescale filter reduces the pouring size to the extent that if you pour too quickly the boiling water will leak from the lid, this took some getting used to. you have to pour slowly to avoid leakage! Overall I would say avoid this if you want a 'cream' kettle I'll be buying a different one in store so I can check the colour and donating this to a charity shop.

This is a great kettle and a noticeable upgrade on my older Breville Kettle. It is lighter, fast boiling and looks great. It is low noise and because of its PVC body, very easy to clean!! The kettle lid release function does feel a bit flimsy, so l will report if it fails sooner than expected! But worth a look at for the cost!! Recommended! 👍

Mine died after exactly 3 years of use.

My bread emerges from this toaster relaxed and delicious, after a gentle and even toasting. I previously had a Cuisinart toaster that brought me only pain, regret, and burnt toast. This is a significant upgrade. Plus it looks like a thing of beauty on my worktop. I attach a photo of some newly emerged toast. Yum!

Spout too close to lid. Lid over boils with steam and shakes/rattles like an over excited R2D2
