Before you buy any run-of-the-mill, boring electric kettle, take a look at the range by Bodum. You can have a kettle that you will be proud to show off.
The Bodum Ottoni cordless electric kettle is a stunning and eye-catching design. The stove top version of this kettle proved so popular that this electric version was produced. Apparently it is a post-modernist 70's design but looks almost oriental and has a mirror shine stainless steel body. This is not only a beautiful kettle but is also very practical as its broad base allows up to 51 ounces of water to boil very quickly. At 9.95 on Amazon this isn't the cheapest kettle you will find but it is one of the most stylish.
For a more standard kettle there is the Bodum Ibis range. The mini Ibis is perfect if you just want one or two cups of boiling water in a hurry. The larger cordless Ibis electric kettle holds up to 57 ounces of water and is made of BPA-free plastic. This good looking kettle is available in black, apple-green and red as well as off white.
Bodum also make a range of stovetop kettles of which the Ottoni is the most well-known. Another of their stovetop models is the Clara glass whistling kettle. This is a very striking looking kettle completely made of glass except for the lid and whistling spout stopper. The traditional idea of the whistling stovetop kettle is transformed into an ultra-modern design by the body of the kettle being made of glass. There is a saying that "a watched pot never boils" but this kettle is fascinating to watch and actually boils very quickly up to its 59 ounce capacity.
The Osiris is another stovetop kettle by Bodum. It is an attractive stainless steel kettle with large capacity but lacks a little of the style of the Ottoni. This is though a more minimalist and high-tech looking design so if that is the style of your kitchen then this kettle might be perfect for you.
To complement their range of kettles Bodum also make a Kenya Tea Press, a Ceylon Ice Tea Maker and the Chambord 4-Cup Coffee Press. All their items are extremely desirable and attractive and look wonderful in a modern design of kitchen, whilst not looking out of place in a more traditional or farmhouse style kitchen. However the best of their kettles by a long way as far as looks are concerned is the Ottoni electric kettle.
