I tried to buy, but unless I joined their First membership, the delivery is showing as $8.99 on top of the price.
I have already trialed this Kogan First membership in the past. Although the message "Try 14 days of Kogan First for free. Cancel anytime" is displayed, I don't know if they will bill me for full membership if I had proceeded with the free trial of Kogan First to save on delivery.
Are you aware if Kogan First trial are offered to those who have trialed it before, if their last trial had been quite some time ago?
(BTW my last Kogan First trial some time back was also to buy this kettle. I am quite happy, to want another one as spare. So upvote from me).
Trialled kogan first before and after some time of not placing any orders, I was able to sign up for another trial round without paying.
Oh thank you, just what I want to hear. Will purchase again! :-)
Hi, is the inside of the lid stainless steel or chrome like finish over plastic ? Thanks.
Nice. Thanks for the video link. Looks able to cook instant noodles too :P
@armageddeus: I guess this is feasible. But the cover stays open at an incline, so perhaps not the most convenient for this purpose. Likewise, for the washing up after cooking. This is where a birko would be perfect. It used to be cheap enough for student use, but unfortunately, it is too expensive nowadays.
I actually had a subscription to Kogan First for a while. Started at $49/year which was reasonable, then the next year the price DOUBLED to $99 a year and now I believe its $129 a year.
At $49 it was "reasonable" but $129 a year is a sick joke.I got tricked by Kogan! Now they are denying to refund me!! I will never ever buy from their site again.
I love the fact the inside of the lid is metal (normally plastic)
Regardless of been a single wall or a double wall kettle. To keep the heat in we use kitchen hand towels that are one piece (not ones that split). Keeps the heat in during QLD summer, less noise to the boil. Surprising quicker to boil for the next cuppa all year around.
Think long and hard about plastic kettles and cheap kettles. Hard to clean scale off inside, scratches easier than metal or glass. Typically noisier to the boil. That said, its hard to find one material. Older plastic kettles, who knows what is safe over time.
A older version of these: https://www.kmart.com.au/product/1.7l-stainless-steel-kettle…
Now Kmart products are is banned in this household except tried and proven brands.With the Kogan kettle the power specifications are: Voltage 220-240V | 50Hz | 1850-2200w
Does that mean it uses less current approaching the boiling point?Does that mean it uses less current approaching the boiling point?
No. The power stated probably reflects a crude heating element resistive range. In addition, it also depends on the actual voltage.
I have 2 of these kettles, one boils slightly faster than the other.
220-240V | 50Hz | 1850-2200w
It means 1850W @ 220V, 2200W @ 240V. ( power is proportional to voltage squared )
Last year I bought a double wall kettle from Amazon. I'd done a bit of research and settled on an Arendo, which is a German brand (not made in Germany though), who is fairly popular on Amazon Germany. It was only because at the time, the only double-wall kettle I could find in Australia was a Midea one which I didn't like the look of.

It's been very good. I wanted the water to stay hot for a while because in our house we tend to boil it, use some then someone else comes along and has to re-boil it shortly after, etc. Seemed we kept boiling the kettle. This one stays hot for a while (will still be >90deg after 5-10 minutes) and the sides just get warm.
I also wanted one because they have stainless steel interior, including inside the lid. So there's not much boiling water->plastic contact, if any. This kettle has no window too, so you have to pop the lid to see the fill level.
Anyway looks like the Kogan one could be a similar one, or a copy of a similar one, which is good.
I wish it wasn't $125, I love the temp control function
I assume the Arendo has a captive cable so you have to use an adaptor?
Yep - has euro style pins.
Thanks mate, last week I was looking for a stainless steel interior as well, would you be able to confirm that water doesn't make contact with any plastic? Like this one (description points that too)

Looks like the Arendo has better review tho, I dont care about the temp settings atm
Cool. Had a look at it, all the interior surfaces are stainless, and the body and base are one piece (topless cylinder like a U). But the hinge for the lid is plastic and the lid seal is on the plastic (lid), so there are some small amounts of contact there. Normally the water doesn't contact the hinge, but I guess steam and condensation would in a small way. Since the underside of the lid is a stainless plate (with dimples for drips to fall off), most of the condensation would just make contact with that.
I'm happy with it. To be honest, firstly it's not as heavy, sturdy feeling as my old Breville, it feels pretty light actually but not necessarily flimsy. But it's worked well for the past few months. Secondly, I think it's slightly slower to boil than my old kettle (probs lower wattage). I convince myself that's good because it'll use more of my PV solar energy then (as opposed to sucking more power from the grid and boiling faster). I like the temperature monitor on the top, it counts up as it measures the water temperature going up. It shows you the temp at any time when you put it back on the base or press a button.
Looks great through.
Does anyone know if these double walled kettles are any quieter than normal stainless kettles?
Nah, my ones a right little show-off.
It would save energy by only boiling the amount of water that you need.
