Hob kettle by Alessi at John Lewis £82
What's So Great About It?
For starters, this is a proper, on-the-hob job, which may mean you become a slave to its whistle and run a real risk of boiling it dry, but takes you back to ye olden days in a satisfying way.
The heat-diffusing base is suitable for use with all hob types (yes we mean you, flashy induction boffins), but our favourite bit is definitely the cute bird whistle in the spout.
The Science
H22.5cm x D22cm; 2ltr capacity.
In Other Words
This might actually get us using cups and saucers, a tea tray and sugar lumps.
