Pros
Smeg Kettle
Great kettle option against what is available in the market. The adjustable temperature is useful and important specifically if you have kids. The cream colour also looks nice in the kitchen.

Love my Smeg Kettle!
This kettle/jug is the best kettle I’ve ever had. It has numerous features which appeal to me. I love how it lets you know when it’s reached the desired temperature with a jaunty ‘bingle bongle’ sound. This came as a complete surprise when I first turned it on. If you don’t like this feature, it can easily be muted. The kettle can also maintain your desired temperature for a maximum of 20 minutes which means you can set it up and start it to boil when you are eating your cereal, and your water will be still just right by the time you want to have your tea and breakfast muffin. You can alter the maximum temperature to suit your particular beverage type with a simple movement of the temperature selector. Very easy peasy! Another feature which is important to me is the overall aesthetics of the kettle - the shape is very appealing and there are a range of colours available which attractively meld together a vintage and yet still modern appearance. I have chosen the cream colourway and I couldn’t be happier!!

Key benefits
- Variable Temperature Control: Choose from seven temperature levels (50°C to 100°C) for optimal brewing of different teas and coffees.
- Keep Warm Function: Maintains selected water temperature for up to 20 minutes, reducing the need to reboil.

- 360° Swivel Base: Allows easy placement and lifting from any angle.

Q: How does the variable temperature control on the Smeg KLF04CRAU help with different drinks?
A: It lets you choose from 7 settings between 50C and 100C, which is more useful than a boil-only kettle for green tea, white tea and delicate herbal teas. It also suits coffee methods where boiling water can be too hot.
Q: What is the difference between this Smeg KLF04 kettle and a standard Smeg boil-only kettle?
A: The key difference is temperature selection. This KLF04CRAU offers 7 heat settings from 50C to 100C plus a keep warm function for 20 minutes, while a standard boil-only model is mainly designed to heat water straight to boiling.
Q: Is the 1.7L capacity suitable for making several drinks at once?
A: Yes. The 1.7L capacity is rated for about 7 cups, so it suits households or visitors better than compact kettles. If you usually make only one mug at a time, it will still work, but the full-size body takes more bench space.
Q: Can this kettle stay at the selected temperature for later refills?
A: Yes. The keep warm function maintains the chosen temperature for up to 20 minutes after heating, which is handy for a second cup without reboiling. It is a short hold feature, not an all-morning hot water setting.
Q: Is the Smeg KLF04CRAU easy to use from different angles on the bench?
A: Yes. It has a 360 degree swivel base, so the kettle can be placed back on the base in any position. That makes it more convenient for left-handed or right-handed use, especially when the kettle sits in a tight corner.
