Breville VKJ149 Silver Brita Filter Jug Kettle

Breville VKJ149 Silver Brita Filter Jug Kettle

Product Description

Manufacturer's Description

The Breville VKJ149 silver plastic Brita filter jug kettle combines modern design with high performance. It is high wattage--3 kilowatt (kW)--keeping the boiling time short to save you time and has a concealed element. This makes it easier to clean and more energy efficient than an immersed element, requiring a lower minimum water level in order to function safely. It has a capacity of 1 litre (l) and features Brita filter technology which works as the kettle is boiling. This Brita filter uses a mixture of carbon and ion exchange resin to remove hardness, chlorine, heavy metals such as lead and copper, and other organic impurities from your water to improve its taste, smell and appearance. The kettle includes a recyclable Brita Maxtra cartridge which features a Memo display that automatically reminds you when your filter cartridge needs to be changed.

The VKJ149 is designed with an extra-large water window indicating water level to help you fill the kettle to the desired amount. And this window illuminates blue when boiling, making it easier to judge the correct amount and giving your kettle a sophisticated style. This is complemented by the silver plastic body adding to the smart effect. The kettle is fitted with a non-slip, 360° rotational base for left and right-handed usage and cord storage to keep your kitchen worktop fuss-free.

    Costumer Critiques

    This is a nice enough kettle with the added function of a Brita filter. It boils quickly (does half a litre in just under a minute and a half) with a blue light to indicate when it is on and looks quite fashionable too.

    1 slight flaw probably the kettle holds 1 litre of water but the filter reservoir only holds half a litre. So, if you want to fill your kettle you will have to fill the reservoir as soon as, wait for it to percolate through and then re-fill.

    The kettle uses Brita Maxtra filters, one particular of which comes supplied with the product and are recommended to be altered every four weeks.

    Adore my kettle. It boils in seconds and the water quality is significantly enhanced. It also lights up like a space ship The replacement filters are quick to fit and the usage gauge signifies the water is continually properly filtered
