    Loads of faults as mentioned by other reviewers. Can't wait to replace it (though I did accidentally drop it and although dented still works as before). Worst for me is the window takes to long to show how much water is in it and if boiled when too full you get a wonderful shower of boiling water co ...

    Well, I've had Russell Hobbs Energy Saving Thermal Kettle a day now and have already made my mind up to return it as I am fed up with it already !

    GOOD POINTS:
    Pretty blue light.
    Keeps the water hot for ages so you can make a cup of tea at 9pm and still fill your hot water bottle up at 10.30pm !
    Lo ...

    Bought a Russell Hobbs thermal kettle a fortnight ago & am disappointed. Was captured by the energy saving aspect of it & that the inside chamber would be very easy to keep limescale free as looks like the inside of a flask (and also fact I got it half price...hmmm). But found that due to it refusin ...

    Russell Hobbs Energy Saving Thermal Kettle - Model 13618, water tastes metallic even after being boiled thousands of times and being left for hours then going back to it makes it taste worse,its not supposed to.
    a good idea gone bad

    I am very disappointed with this Russell Hobbs Energy Saving Thermal Kettle - Model 13618 and will be contacting Russell Hobbs to see what can be done about it. I cannot use this kettle to make tea or coffee. I did try and use the water to boil some new salad potatoes and it made the potatoes tast ...

    I think the Russell Hobbs Energy Saving Thermal Kettle is a great concept badly executed. I still have mine, and use it, and try to champion the idea with my friends but really Russell Hobbs should sort this out.

    I would not recommend this kettle. The kettle seems to take a long time to switch off when the water is boiling. It also makes the water taste very metallic.

    Just bought this Russell Hobbs Energy Saving Thermal Kettle (13618) thinking I'd be helping the environment. Ended up buying another as this kettle leaves a horrible metallic tang to the water. It is not easy to use and a bit of a gimmic really. Don't buy one go for another kettle.

    You need boiling water for tea but the Russell Hobbs Energy Saving Thermal kettle does not seem to provide it. br/>Why didn't the makers simply let the water reboil.Fortunately I have not bought one. It's in the office kitchen. I'll never buy one.

    I thought I had closed the lid and left the room while the kettle was boiling, however a little steam could escape and when I came back in the kettle was rocking with steam and boiling water spluttering out the top and most importantly it didn't switch off. I nudged the lid down the missing millimet ...
