      Jokes aside this is plastic vs the stainless in the Breville. That Breville is also quite heavy though iirc, heavier than their other stainless models.

    The inside is plastic right?

    • +3

      According to choice mag it is plastic

        • +2

          The lid inside is still plastic though. This seems like an issue with 95% of kettles.

          • @RedSky: Why is it an issue? I assume theres a good reason if most are designed that way.

            • +1

              @WowBargain: Probably a simpler design but if your concerns is microplastic leakage from plastic then it doesn't really matter if it's lid of the cylinder. I have one with plastic lid as well, was thinking of replacing it.

            • @WowBargain: In my experience the taste of plastic kettles is always really noticeable in a bad way, even without knowing whether there's a health concern.

      This got me boiling up inside

        I take it you're too hot to handle?

        • +5

          Nah, that's just the pot calling the kettle black.

    • Surely the lining that comes in contact with the water is not plastic…?!

      • +4

        No deal then. SS or glass for me

    just did a quick lookup on this, its a good price butttttttt…. people say the handle falls off and its slow to boil water.

    • +4

      Seems like you definitely did "a quick lookup" because you just looked at the one-star google reviews and saw one guy say his handle fell off, and two people said it boils slowly out of 42 reviews, average 4.6 star….

      Not exactly a concrete conclusion there Sherlock. Overall the reviews looks just fine, especially at this price point.

          Yeah I gave it a crack at $34 delivered. Replacing an el cheapo kmart unit thats had many years of service.

              @Avacardooo Rayy Mee: Good thing it's not plastic then. Will do.

              • -8

                @WowBargain: Great work detective, you provided an image of a different kettle with a attached lid not a "pull off lid" and saying its the same, it also looks completely different. but thats okay you can blame choice mag for your top quality research. 👍 but enjoy your plastic kettle.

                  @Avacardooo Rayy Mee: Hahaha, nice to see you dug a big deeper this time mate ;-)

                  Good point - didn't catch that they have a full product image set and then they've slapped on a photo of a random kettle lid at the end. I'd be happy to blame Choice mag for that one becasue that's highly unusual.

                  I'm happy even if it is plastic - much better than my current one and I'm not overly concerned about dying due to the composition of my kettle.

      • With this deal, it's hard to miss out.

    • Well, some of them are built so the handle doesn’t fall off at all? Not very typical

      • Well cardboard's out.
        No cardboard derivatives.

    Thanks OP, took the drive.

    I will never touch another sunbeam product again. They look good and the prices are good but when i first bought their products years ago, a kettle and a toaster, both of them failed in just a month’s worth of owning them. I remember the kettle I had, a black plastic thing came off from the inside. I googled it and apparently it was a common issue. Immediately returned them to myer and asked for refund.

    • +1

      Same. I bought their egg cooker and the nonstick coating wore off almost immediately.

    • The toaster has been great. Not sure about other products

  • Order placed 🙏

  • Perfect gift for the upcoming Bad Santa event at work! Thanks OP :)

  • Scored! Thanks so much, I have been eyeing this kettle for months, it’s so hard to find a dark blue kettle with slim profile. Now to see if this is actually better than my $10 kettle from Big W 😆

  • Don’t need one, but will go halves in shipping if someone orders one for Melbourne city or Doncaster pick up

    • +1

      I live in Doncaster. Did you wanna split shipping?

  • Thanks op. Got one.

  • +5

    If for help for anyone- have had a pink (matching set) one of these for about two years. Reliable, moderate boiling speed and little bell ding when boiled for about a minute that reminds me I had wanted a cup of tea.
    I initially didn't like that it was plastic due to the lightweight nature, however now really appreciate that it isn't as heavy as some on the market.
    Hope it helps :)

  • Thanks op bought one

  • Was going to buy this for my mum, but plastic inside is worrying me :(
