Philips 7000 HD9396/90

I had the opportunity to test this kettle for a few weeks. It is a beautiful and sleekly designed kettle. The kettle is operated via a digital touchpad on the handle, which is pleasant and easy to use. Due to the high power of the device, it heats the water very quickly. It is nice that the outside of the kettle does not get warm when heating up due to the double-walled housing. Due to the high power, the kettle naturally uses a lot of energy, which makes it less sustainable. In addition, the kettle is a bit lacking in terms of ease of use. For example, the cup indication is on the inside of the device and is engraved in the stainless steel, making it difficult to read (especially in low light). I also notice that the pouring precision is not accurate due to the awkwardly designed pouring spout. The water goes in all directions, which makes, for example, precisely pouring hot water with coffee and tea difficult. All in all, it is a solid and sleek kettle, but unfortunately it falls short in a few areas in terms of ease of use.

This black kettle looks very stylish with little fuss. The button to open the kettle is located on the lid and it works easily. Switching on the kettle is on the handle with a touchscreen button that is also easy to operate. The disadvantages of this kettle for me are that the lid does not open very far, making it difficult for me to fill the kettle with my short tap. The capacity is also on the inside of the kettle, which is difficult to see because of the lid, which only partially opens. It's nice that you can read the temperature on the handle. If I weigh the pros and cons, this is not the ideal kettle for me

After pressing the start button, the device starts up properly but stops at about 33 degrees, and has to be started again, sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't, and it does go straight to 100 degrees. Device exchanged but the same problem, Philips' answer is to descale, this for a device that is a week old, or have you set the temperature correctly, yes, that's how you solve your problems too....
