Overview
Smeg builds the KLF04 from stainless steel with a rotating power base and a push-button lid. A digital display sets the target temperature, and the kettle shuts off when the water is ready.
Precise temperature steps and a keep-warm mode make it more useful than a boil-only kettle for tea and coffee. The limitations are hand-wash care and a body that is on the larger side for a small shelf.
Who it's for
Tea and coffee drinkers who change water temperature by drink are the target. Someone who just wants boiling water can choose a plain model.
Pros and cons
- Adjustable temperature range
- Keep warm function
- Auto shut-off for safety
- Hand wash only
- Large for small counters
- Electronic control adds complexity
Performance notes
Water heat is set by the digital thermostat and held within the keep-warm window, so temperature sensitive drinks stay at the chosen level for a short time. Descaling occasionally maintains heating speed.
