Swan SK14610OAT Nordic Cordless Jug Kettle with Fast Boil Technology, Overheat Protection, Soft Touch Handle, 1.7L, 3KW, Oatmeal, White

Beautiful quality, feels lush.

Beautiful design and an excellemt kettle.

I love this kettle. It's quick, quiet, looks fab and works a treat. However, the small scale filter in the spout is not fit for purpose. It's fiddly to remove for cleaning and is very, very flimsy. Within a few months it had broken, but on the Swan website, a new filter costs almost £10!!! Assuming I need to replace it every three months, that doubles the price of this kettle in the first year alone. I cannot imagine the filter costs more that 20p to manufacture, so this is an obscene price to charge, but without a filter it is very poor. I've just found a nylon tea strainer for £2.50 on Amazon from which I should be able to make five replacement filters. It's a solution, but appalling that I should have to take these steps with such an otherwise high-quality kettle. Shame on you, Swan!

This is a great kettle, my second in this design. I really appreciate the simple clean lines, with its conical shape. the lid is therefore easy to access and take off for filling. Also easy to wipe clean. I also really like this colour, but that's subjective of course! I had a grey on before - so Swan's unusual and softer shades make them stand out from the usual black and reds etc, whilst also blending nicely into the kitchen. Fast to boil when new, but like most (all?) kettles, seems to take longer as it ages.

Purchased using gift vouchers in June 2021. A little disappointed as the handle is coated and not wooden but love the quirky retro design and colour, so unusual and a bit of treat to have something so different! It's a bit tricky to keep clean and scale free (we live in very hard water area) but outside wipes down. The boiled water tastes awful but found if you wait for the boiling and simmering of the water to stop before you pour the water into your cup, the taste disappears. Horrible, tastes like TCP. The scale filter isn't fit for purpose if you don't keep it scale free, it just pours through. October 2021 I noticed the coating on the handle peeling. So I reached out to Swan to help as it was still fairly new. I received a copy/paste response from their customer service team who clearly hadn't read my message or understood the nature of the issue. In order to get a refund or credit you have to write in permanent marker all over the appliance, cut the cord and submit pictures to their customer service and wait for approval. How bloody stupid is that? I'd have to buy a kettle in the meantime or use my hob to boil water which isn't a massive issue, worse things going on in the world than a peeling kettle handle, but the inference that in order to get a refund or a replacement you have to prove you will no longer use the product. I don't like that, that somehow I'm having to prove I'm not lying or intend to be dishonest? A replacement was offered but why would I want the same product with the same fault anyway? I would have been happy with a goodwill gesture or some credit towards a new alternative Swan product if they couldn't go for a full refund. But they took the hard line and I'm not digging that. Nope, Swan. You got it wrong this time. I'll keep using the peely handle kettle and then when the time comes, I'll chose an alternative and better quality brand. won't be buying the matching toaster now, either.

I am very happy with my new (white) kettle, I love the style of it, it is lightweight with a great big handle and it is quick to fill as the lid removes easily. It is quiet, boils fast and pouring is easy. So far I’ve had no problems.

Design and Appearance Right out of the box, the kettle looks fantastic. The soft-touch finish and wood-effect handle add a touch of elegance, making it a stylish addition to my kitchen. The 1.7L capacity and 3KW power also mean it heats water quickly, which is great for busy mornings. Durability Issues Unfortunately, the wood-effect handle is where the kettle starts to lose points. After just a short period of use, the wood-effect began to scrape away, revealing the plastic underneath. This significantly detracts from the kettle’s aesthetic appeal, making it look worn and cheap much sooner than expected. It’s disappointing for a product that’s supposed to blend style with functionality. Performance In terms of performance, the kettle does what it’s supposed to do. It boils water quickly and efficiently, and the 1.7L capacity is sufficient for most household needs. The soft-touch finish on the body is a nice feature, making the kettle easy to handle even when it’s full. Final Verdict The Swan Nordic Jug Kettle is a stylish and efficient kettle, but it falls short in terms of durability. The wood-effect handle, which is a key part of its design, quickly loses its charm as the faux wood scrapes off, revealing the plastic underneath. If you’re looking for a kettle that maintains its good looks over time, you might want to consider other options. However, if you prioritise quick boiling and aren’t too concerned about the long-term appearance, this kettle still offers decent functionality. Pros: Sleek, modern design with a soft-touch finish Quick boiling with 3KW power 1.7L capacity suitable for most households Cons: Wood-effect handle scrapes off quickly, revealing plastic Aesthetic appeal diminishes over time

Great kettle. Love the style and finish. Very well made, pours well and is not very noisy when boiling. We use it in a soft water area so no issue with limescale Is this the one Jamie has in his Eat Yourself Healthy series? Good choice Jamie!!!!

Tengo a precisare che il prodotto ricevuto (ho acquistato giorni prima anche tostapane e micronde) è ottimo e rispecchia tutte le mie aspettative. Arrivato ben imballato, unico neo è l'informazione sulla tracciabilità. Tolto questo aspetto tutti i prodotti acquistati sono ottimi.

Stecker ist nur für UK, braucht man einen Adapter .

Looked good for about 8 months, then the handle started to peel even though we don't use any abrasives or soaps on it. I was informed that the warranty does not cover this. Otherwise good.

El único problema por ahora es que el enchufe es inglés y tuve que buscar un adaptador especial.

Fast billing and looks good. Using an adapter plug but works well. Easy to keep clean.
