Hinari JF150

Hinari Aqua-flow kettle model: JF150 in one word, Rubbish!

I received this kettle as a gift about three years ago but as I didn't need to use it straight away I left it in it's box and put it away in a cupboard.

However, last Christmas my old kettle stopped working so I dug this one out of the cupboard to use it. I read the Brita instructions before using it but I decided to use it as a standard kettle only for the first go.

Yes it boiled the water as it suppose to and I enjoyed my first mug of coffee from this water. However, when I went back into the kitchen for a coffee refill, all of the remaining hot water had leaked out of it which soaked the counter top. Funnily, when I refilled it with tap water, it didn't leak. It would only leak like a UK water mains when the water was boiled which told me that when expanded, it's seals would open up.

As it was a present and it's guarantee had expired, I could ask for my money back, so now it's used to top up the water in my dog's outdoor water bowl.

Though I've given it one star, this kettle deserves a zero rating. Like I said, it's RUBBISH!!
