This is my first ever review so imagine how upset I am with this kettle! I've now had 2 of these kettles; the first one blow up after around 2 years so I gave it the benefit of the doubt and got another one, if nothing else, so it continued to match the toaster. After less than 6 months, the new one has developed a leak from beneath the handle and now leaks all over the worktop - not very safe I'm sure! At around the same time, the toaster went 'pop' and now only one side toasts. So, I've now got a very good excuse to bin them both and start again....
