Bosch Styline Kettle Review
Score: 14/15 | RRP: £69.99
How we tested eco kettles
Our testing was based on boiling 500ml water – enough to fill two average-sized mugs – to 100ºC, and we awarded each model up to 15 points for the following criteria:
- Energy efficiency, including whether the kettle offers a rapid boil function, different temperature settings and a keep warm feature (3 points)
- Features, points awarded for water level window, boil-dry protection, auto shut-off, cordless design, 360º base, built-in filter, hidden element and ease of pouring (8 points)
- Value for money, does it offer plenty of features, and does it come with a warranty? (2 points)
- Good looks, is the kettle stylish, and does it come in any different finishes? (2 points)
How energy efficient is the Bosch Styline kettle?
This 1.5L kettle offers all three of the eco features on our list – 3kW element for rapid boiling (around 1 min 20 seconds for 500ml), four temperature settings of 70ºC, 80ºC, 90ºC and 100ºC, and a 30-minute keep warm function.
Is the Bosch Styline kettle good value for money?
Although a little more pricey than some of the other models on our list, we feel this kettle is a good investment as it does offer most of the standard features we look for in an eco kettle, three fantastic energy-saving functions and a two-year warranty.
How does the Bosch Styline kettle look?
In terms of looks, this design really hits the mark with its chic styling. We especially liked the base, with easy-to-set temperature controls and a keep warm button. It is also available in black and beige finishes if these are better suited to your kitchen scheme.
Should you buy it?
The Bosch Styline ticks nearly all our criteria boxes. The double-walled, cool-touch exterior is great for peace of mind when it comes to safety, and also helps to keep the boiled water hotter for longer. We like its minimal, fuss-free design too. It is on the pricier side though.
Why not consider an eco-friendly fridge to bring your energy costs down?
