Happy wit my purchase
This kettle is stylish in its black and glass combination. It matches my other black appliances well and looks well made. Most of all, it does what it is made to do - boil water!

The clear glass makes it easy to see if any scale is building up inside the kettle, and overall it is a stylish addition to my kitchen

Surprisingly good
Bought this cheap kettle in the interim while I waited for the good kettle (kitchenaid) to be replaced because it broke,personally I wouldn't recommend kitchenaid kettle and Toaster . But the sunbeam kettle is cheap but not nasty, it has a blue light to say it's on and is very quiet, not like the kitchenaid that makes a ding every 2 seconds. And boils the water hot . By the way got the replacement kitchenaid kettle and don't use it now. Now to gift it to someone I don't like .LOL.

Things to consider
Glass body requires regular cleaning to maintain its clear appearance compared to premium stainless steel alternatives.
Family size suitability
8/10 - 1.7L capacity suits families and small groups.
Entertaining suitability
7/10 - Good for hosting, but may require refilling for larger gatherings.
Ease of use rating
9/10 - Simple controls and clear water level make operation easy.
Noise level vs category
6/10 - Slightly louder than average due to rapid boil, but not disruptive.
Travel friendliness

Key benefits
- Glass Body: Lets you easily see water level and boiling progress.
- Rapid Boil: Boils water in under 3 minutes for fast drinks and meals.
- 360° Swivel Base: Convenient for left- or right-handed use.
- Auto Shut-Off: Safety feature prevents over-boiling.
- Easy-Clean Design: Wide opening makes cleaning and filling simple.
- LED Indicator: Illuminates when boiling, adding a stylish touch.
- Cord Storage: Keeps benchtops tidy and organised.
Q: Is the 1.7L capacity suitable for a family or just a couple?
A: Yes. A 1.7L kettle is a practical family size and typically makes about 6 to 7 standard cups, depending on cup size. It suits shared kitchens better than compact 1.0L models, but it will take up more bench space and be heavier when full.
Q: Does the glass body on the Sunbeam KE6450K get hot on the outside?
A: Yes. Because this model uses a glass jug rather than a cool-touch outer wall, the body can become hot during and after boiling. The handle stays the main contact point, so it is better suited to users comfortable with a traditional kettle design.
Q: What does the 3-way safety system do on this Sunbeam kettle?
A: It is designed to add automatic shut-off protection in common boiling situations, which is useful if the kettle is running low or finishes heating. That makes it safer for daily use than a basic kettle, but it is still not intended to be left unattended.
Q: Is the 360 degree base useful if both left and right-handed people use the kettle?
A: Yes. The 360 degree base lets the kettle be placed back from any angle, so it is easier to use in busy kitchens or by left and right-handed users. Because it is cordless off the base, it is also simpler to carry to the sink for filling.
Q: What does the 1850 to 2200W power range mean in everyday use?
A: It means this kettle is in the typical fast-boil range for a full-size electric model, so it is suited to regular tea, coffee and cooking prep. Boil time will still vary with how much water is inside, the starting water temperature and your household power supply.
Q: Does the blue illumination help with everyday use or is it only decorative?
A: It does both. The blue light gives a clear visual cue that the kettle is switched on, which can be handy in brighter kitchens or open-plan spaces. It does not indicate an exact water temperature, so this model is not a variable-temperature kettle.
