"moving towards the electric"
I have a small kitchen with a range cooker so I have always used a stove top kettle to save worktop space. However I have recently started drinking cups of tea first thing in the morning and the stove top kettle takes too long to boil So reluctantly (as most are not good to look at) I looked for an electric kettle. This one is beautiful, does not take up much worktop space and is quick and quiet - I love it and it looks great with my dualit toaster.
