Great compact Kettle
I am really enjoying my new glass kettle. It's perfect for one person and takes up less space. Cup of tea tastes better too

Convenient and Practical!!!!
We have always had the bigger version of this kettle while our 3 kids were at home. It served us well and is still going. Now that the children have left home and for the two of us, we needed a smaller version. The Breville compact kettle is the best replacement. It is compact, handles are easy to grip and carry around, the clear glass is especially helpful to see if the kettle needs to be cleaned. The water boils very fast. It is often that we do not need to boil more than 1 litre of water so the compact size serves us well. With bigger kettles, you end up boiling more than you need.

Great little kettle!
Swapped out an urn for this one. What a great little kettle. Fast boil time and does the trick. Not too noisy either.

The compact Breville kettle
UnfortunatelyI was expecting a much lighter kettle and it is so heavy. We bought it because of hand arthritis. Very disappointing.

Perfect kettle for smaller volume requirements.
Have been a Breville brand fan for many years, and this kettle does not disappoint. The volume I chose for a quick cuppa, is ideal. As is the fact that is a quiet kettle. Definitely deserves the 5 stars I rated it!

Q: How many cups does the Breville The Compact Kettle Clear hold?
A: It holds 1 litre, which is roughly 4 standard 250ml cups or about 3 larger mugs. That makes it better suited to one or two people than a larger 1.7 litre kettle designed for bigger households or entertaining.
Q: Is a 1 litre kettle enough for everyday use?
A: Yes, if you usually make a few drinks at a time. The 1 litre capacity suits small households, home offices or apartments, but a family that regularly makes 4 or more large mugs in one go may prefer a larger kettle.
Q: Does the smaller capacity help reduce wasted energy?
A: Yes, a 1 litre kettle can help reduce wasted energy because there is less excess water to boil when you only need one or two cups. The main saving comes from filling closer to what you will actually use, not from the compact size alone.
Q: How do you clean the inside of the Breville The Compact Kettle Clear?
A: The usual method is to descale it with a kettle descaler or a mild vinegar and water solution, then rinse thoroughly before use. The clear body also makes mineral build-up easier to spot early than on an opaque kettle.
Q: Is the Breville The Compact Kettle Clear a good choice for guests or larger households?
A: No, not as a main kettle for heavy use. Its 1 litre capacity is convenient for smaller serves, but for guests or busy family mornings it will need more frequent refilling than a standard 1.7 litre kettle.
