It's fast. It gets water boiling in no time and then can keep it near there temperature-wise. What I really like about this kettle, as opposed to the one that I used to use, is that the water scale is on the side of the kettle. So many kettles have the scale under the handle for some reason. This kettle, though, is easy to use, has settings for different teas, and just plain works. Highly recommended.

It’s perfect. The different temp settings make a big and positive impact on the flavor of each tea. And the hold temp feature is very handy and works really well.

I had no idea that the temperature of the water would make a difference in the tea! I can’t tell you how impressed I am with my Breville IQ Kettle. It’s made my tea go from okay to totally delicious! I love my August Uncommon Teas. The most unusual teas I’ve ever tasted! Thank you!

The perfect kettle. I like black, green, and oolong teas so a variable temp kettle is a must. Others in my family use it for french press and for hot toddies. It is fast and reliable and the "keep warm" function is a nice add. I use it all day long every day. Breville is the best - totally dependable.

I purchased this for my daughter and her fiance. They both love it and enjoy that it doesn't take a lot of time to heat the water.
