Smeg Electric Kettle

No, this model is designed for simplicity and does not include variable temperature control. It is engineered to bring water to a boil at 100°C (212°F) and then automatically shut off.

The stainless steel limescale filter is removable, allowing you to easily take it out and rinse it under running water. For deeper cleaning, you can soak it in a solution of water and vinegar to remove mineral buildup.

The kettle is constructed from stainless steel, which will become hot to the touch during operation. We recommend handling it by the handle, which is designed to remain cool and comfortable.

No, this model does not feature a keep-warm function. It is designed to heat water quickly and shut off automatically once it reaches the boiling point for safety and energy efficiency.

The 'Soft Opening' system is a mechanism that allows the lid to open gently when you press the release button. This prevents the lid from springing open too quickly, which helps avoid hot water splashes or steam burns.

The kettle itself is cordless once lifted from its base, allowing you to pour freely. However, the base must remain plugged into a power outlet for the heating element to function.
