Black Plastic and Chrome Illuminated Jug Kettle

The Breville VKJ428 black plastic and chrome illuminated 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 1.7 litres (l) and so can accommodate about six to eight cups - ideal for families. The VKJ428 is designed with dual rear water windows indicating water level to help you fill the kettle to the desired amount. And these windows, as well as the kettle's switch, illuminate blue when boiling, making it easier to judge the correct amount and giving your kettle a sophisticated style.

This is complemented by the stylish chrome strip on the kettle's rear and the unusual and eye-catching curve shape of the unit which add 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.
