Kettles

OK 2nd question modern kettles with base power cord system instead of the older lead system but instead the docking system do I test the base separately or test them together as one item
Wow I'm amazed that's available as a spare part yet not as a complete base pre wired and ready to go and that price flip me you can buy a kettle for less or not much more for a brand kettle that would fit
Now that price is taking the p******* for a kettle and I thought £50 for a Brussel bobs kettle was extreme given my sainsburys basics kettle cost me under £5 new back when I got my first home 12 years ago
We have one of these. Let's be honest, the elements didn't last that long in those old-fashioned kettles, perhaps in part due to hard water. Every "modern" kettle which we have had has developed a leak around the window. Why do you need one - we always coped without them. ? This one has remained leak-free for a few years. It boils a cuppa or two quite swiftly, so we are perfectly happy with it.
Some years ago I fitted a kitchen and the lady of the house passed comment that they would need a new kettle.
Later that day her husband came home and I could hear him being cussed despite being in a different room, his wife came into the kitchen carrying the new Porsche kettle he had returned home with, you can guess the rest of the story.
