British designer Tower have a range of appliances and cooking aids available this Christmas, including the 1.7 litre Digital Kettle in their Cavaletto range. We were sent this stylish conical-shaped, Italian influenced kettle with a digital display and all-round, 360-degree base which means the kettle can be heated up on the electrical element from any angle. If you’re left-handed, then you know how annoying it is to keep having to switch hands when using the kettle!
The Cavaletto 1.7 litre digital kettle’s most distinctive feature is the temperature control. Conventional kettles only have on/off buttons but the Cavaletto digital kettle has a touch control button which gives you temperatures up to 100 degrees. Starting at 40 degrees for delicate drinks and heating cups, the temperatures increase by 10 degrees with each touch and displays them on the kettle tab. The temperatures are useful because you can not only use them for making the perfect coffee (80-90C) but you’ll find other uses like warming plates before dinner, heating up a baby’s bottle or using the lower temperatures for cleaning.
The Cavaletto kettle has a capacity to boil up to 7 cups of water at a time and also has a 3 year guarantee to give assurance that it will last. The attention to detail on the silver trim sets off the Italian look nicely with the perfect pour spout. There’s also a filter inside for those of us who live in a hard water area but the workings don’t matter as it looks, and feels so stylish to use. It’s a great looking bit of kit for the kitchen too!
