Russell Hobbs Honeycomb RHMM715 17 Litre 700W White Solo Manual Microwave with 5 Power Levels, Integrated Timer and Defrost Function (White)

I bought this to match our new kitchen with white units and grey tiling. We’ve got sage green accessories which is subtle but works well. The kettle itself is great, boils quickly and the blue light adds to the aesthetics. I’ve not had it long but know it’s reliable as we had the black version before and it’s lasted for ages!

I bought this some time ago, and it's still working perfectly. Looks good. Boils quickly and not too loudly. A good brand at a good price on Amazon, so I'd happily recommend.

Mum's arthritis in her hands makes many tasks that were once very simple much more arduous these days.This kettle has proven ideal. Firstly, it is lightweight, so it is not too heavy to lift when completely full. The neat button on the lid makes it easy to open and refill under the tap. There is an easy-to-use water indicator both internally and externally for those who want to boil one or two cups at a time, reducing their energy usage. It is attractive to look at, and is easy to wipe clean, which is important to me as I wouldn't say I like grubby fingerprints on kitchen items. The construction appears robust and of decent quality, so I expect the kettle to last a few years. The design is classic enough to fit in with a wide range of decoration styles and looks nice left out on the worktop. It sits on the cordless base nicely, with no concerning wobbles.I would recommend it to others, particularly those with disabilities who live alone or who just want a kettle of reasonably good quality for a sensible price. I am very happy with this purchase.

This was a replacement appliance for my mum aged 95. Both mum and her carers find this exceptionally straightforward to use as the dials are so clear. The microwave has a nice appearance and is very easy to keep clean. It suits Wiltshire Foods meals as the cooking times start at 700watts. The food is evenly heated. We are delighted with our purchase.

Lovely style bought with a matching toaster . easy to see level of water so you can heat just enough water for your drinks. not to heavy to lift . very smart addition to my kitchen. good value to .

Very nice toaster with three toasting levels It goes well with the kitchen aswell

This is our fourth one of these, actually the first 3 were the smooth finish outside but the product is basically the same otherwise. I suppose that does mean they only last about 2yrs but then we probably use it 5 times a day, at least. Having tried glass, stainless steel and other plastic kettles, this design seems perfect to me. The kettle lights up with a pleasing blue LED light so you know it is on. It is quick and not too noisy but I have yet to encounter a whisper quiet kettle and this is not one either. It is a plastic finish and this means the outside of the kettle does not seem to get too hot and is easily wiped clean. The level viewing window is clear enough and it is easy to see the water level. The kettle is easy to fill, either by flipping the lid or via the spout. It pours well. The only downside is that the fine plastic mesh filter on the spout does break after a while but you can get replacements and I think the same problem applies to all kettles unless of course they do not have a filter at all.Stainless steel kettles get too hot I think. Glass kettles look good but they also get hot and are heavy and if you live in a hard water area then the water just looks horrible anyway. Stainless and glass kettles are also more expensive so you pay more for a less good outcome in my opinion.Some kettles I have bought had a strange taste to the water. This kettle does not.Also, this one really looks quite smart although beauty is of course in the eye of the beholder and kettles are only an everyday item. Still, good design deserves a mention.

I wanted to change to a plastic kettle because of concerns about nickel allergy - just in case it helped. The kettle is a nice plastic kettle and looks good. When I first tried it out, following the instructions, it was in the evening and not very light in our kitchen. I was concerned that when I switched it on, I could see the blue glow through the edges of the lid - it didn't feel closed tight enough. I can see that steam escapes around the top of the lid - it just doesn't feel like a good lid system - a bit cheap and I think if there is a gap then it won't be as efficient. The last kettle was Russell Hobbs and looking at it, the lid is much better on it. When I was looking at previous reviews I noticed a video of one where steam seemed to be coming out around the top but then I saw one that didn't and so I thought it was a one-off. It's not bad enough to complain about - the kettle is nice, but it just leaves me feeling a bit disappointed.
