It’s speedy, too, taking just 42 seconds to boil its minimum capacity of 250ml – perfect for one cup. After spending countless hours testing over 180 kettles in our lab – we've boiled enough hot water to make nearly 5,460 cups of tea! It's big enough to make the whole family a cup of tea, and heats up quickly, though it's not the most sturdy choice out there. During testing, we also found that it reaching boiling point in a very efficient time, and that pouring from it when it's fuller is nice and easy.

If you’re just putting on the kettle for one cup of tea, it’s worth checking the minimum capacity your kettle can boil.
