Product Description
Manufacturer's Description
The Breville JK82 white plastic jug kettle combines modern design with high performance. It is high wattage--3 kilowatt (kW)--keeping the boiling time short to save you time and has a concealed element. This makes it easier to clean and more energy efficient than an immersed element, requiring a lower minimum water level in order to function safely. It has a capacity of 1.7 litres (l) and so can accommodate about six to eight cups--ideal for families. The JK82 is designed with extra-large dual water windows indicating water level to help you fill the kettle to the desired amount. And these windows illuminate blue to red when boiling, making it easier to judge the correct amount and giving your kettle a sophisticated style. It also features a Keep Warm function which ensures the water is always ready to use--ideal for busy breakfasts, refills during the commercial break and more. The kettle is fitted with a non-slip, 360° rotational base for left and right-handed usage and cord storage to keep your kitchen worktop fuss-free.

Surprised by the poor reviews,

This review is from: Breville JK82 White Lightning Jug Kettle (Kitchen & Home)
We were given this kettle as a wedding present 5 years ago. I love how fast it boils and how quiet it is (needs descaling to keep the noise down as we live in a very hard water area)
I have had no problems with discolouration or the plastic breaking down. We were also given the matching toaster which we have had to replace just this year. So I would really rate the kettle! Oh, and the illumination is really cool!

After 3 years a little disappointed.,

This review is from: Breville JK82 White Lightning Jug Kettle (Kitchen & Home)
We were very impressed with this kettle at the outset. In all but for the lid which is a poor and flimsy piece of engineering, it is superbly designed and has been a very welcome essential addition to our kitchen. However, very quickly the white plastic exterior began to deteriorate and finally developed a crack near the bottom of the casing and now leaks after 3 years of use. Perhaps these days we are wrong to expect a longer life for any kitchen electrical appliance but we do. While it is the very best kettle we have ever owned, performed it's daily tasks impeccably and has been a pleasure to use I am now of two minds. Judging by earlier reviews we have been lucky to achieve three years use but we are left feeling that maybe these kettles have such a fundalmental fault in the plastic materials used for the exterior casing that to buy another would
be unwise.

I would buy this one again,

This review is from: Breville JK82 White Lightning Jug Kettle (Kitchen & Home)
The best thing about this kettle is that if it has boiled and you want to reboil it, you can do so straight away. Our last kettle had a cut-out switch that prevented you from reboiling it for about 5 minutes, unless you kept your finger on the on button. Sometimes the phone rings whilst you are boiling the kettle and it is really useful to be able to come back and bring it back to the boil. Other than that - a quite simple, but attractive looking white kettle.
I have just read some more recent reviews and although I agree that the catch on the lid is poor and will eventually cause us to replace the kettle, we have had no problems with cracking or discolouration. Would still buy this kettle again.
