"Its unique ribbed design, available in a range of colourways, adds a touch of elegance to your kitchen.
"Boasting a generous 1.7L capacity, this kettle ensures you have ample hot water for your favourite beverages."

It also has anti-bread jamming features, and a defrost function.
The penny pincher friendly products look incredibly similar to Delonghi's 4 Slice Ballerina Toaster and Kettle.
However, with the toaster costing £73 and the kettle setting you back £62, the Dunelm buys are significantly cheaper.
If you purchased both Delonghi products, it would cost you £135.

What are the biggest kitchen trends of 2025?
The kitchen is the heart of every home and this year it's taking centre stage, Tracy Coleman, Product Director at High Street TV told Fabulous.
Hardworking appliances
Space-saving essentials are needed in every room of the house, and the kitchen is no exception, meaning appliances are often doing double (or triple) the job.
Expect to see air fryer ovens that roast, bake, and fry or blenders with attachments for everything from chopping to grinding.
Health and wellness
With people becoming more mindful of what they eat and how it impacts their well-being, kitchen appliances are stepping up to
meet the demand for healthier, more balanced lifestyles.
Air fryers remain hugely popular, along with blenders and juicers that retain nutrients.
Energy-bill conscious
Finally, with rising energy bills and an increased focus on sustainability, people are turning to appliances that help reduce power consumption and keep costs down.
More people are finding joy in cooking at home as a cost-effective
way to enjoy delicious, nutritious meals. Cooking at home doesn't just save money—it's also a fun way to bring the family together or experiment with new recipes.
With the right tools, such as multi-functional appliances and smart kitchen gadgets, creating meals at home becomes easier, faster, and more satisfying.
"Works well and looks stylish on the counter with the matching toaster."
A third person said: "They match our kitchen perfectly and look really expressive!
"Both the kettle and toaster have been great to use, and we would definitely recommend them.
"In fact, our daughter has bought exactly the same ones."
