In addi­tion, even users with large hands will find it quite con­ve­nient to wash the ket­tle. As the expe­ri­ence of test­ing oth­er devices shows, this does not hap­pen very often. How­ev­er, the design of this mod­el still has a small draw­back: in order to fill the ket­tle, the lid must be removed com­plete­ly.

The glass case is much more annoy­ing: although it looks very beau­ti­ful, in those regions where the salt con­tent in the water is quite high, it will require a lot of effort to main­tain a radi­ant appear­ance.

For some­one who uses unfil­tered water, the joy of con­tem­plat­ing the sparkling glass will not be very long.Severin WK3471 kettle test

Which alternative to choose:

Severin WK3471 kettle testKet­tle WMF Lineo 1.6l (you can buy here) at the time of pub­li­ca­tion of the report is the leader of our respec­tive rat­ing. It fea­tures a slight­ly faster boil­ing speed, bet­ter insu­la­tion and allows one-hand­ed oper­a­tion. To open, use the but­ton on the han­dle, which releas­es the hinged lid.

In addi­tion, it has a chic design and is made of stain­less steel. How­ev­er, when choos­ing this alter­na­tive option, the cus­tomer will have to give up the choice of heat­ing tem­per­a­ture.
