De’Longhi’s Icona range is on trend with the latest in kitchen design, with its patent finish and fashionable colours; its unique shape is an elegant take on the classic kettle and toaster designs, created by De’Longhi’s award winning designer, Dario De Prà.

Icona, is innovative, yet timeless and unforgettable; literally translated from the Italian word for ‘icon’, it will endure just like the iconic figures from 1950s film, fashion and music.

• Convenient:
  · The 3 litre capacity provides plenty of hot water.
  · An internal pump delivers water with a touch switch - no lifting or pouring – so easy,
  and great for anyone who finds pouring difficult or unsafe.
• Safety:
  Of course, it has protection against overheating or boiling dry and the walls are always only safely warm.
• Heat up time:
  Designed for low power, so when filled with cold water it will reach temperature in less than 30 minutes; after that, hot water is available instantly.

The SuperKettle looks good in any kitchen –Priced at £51 brushed stainless steel, or £49 white finish.

Free UK delivery for 2 or more SuperKettles to same address.

* This is not all ‘new’ cost to you, because you are probably heating more water than you need every time you boil your ordinary kettle and then letting it cool, whereas the SuperKettle retains most of the energy used.

This is the revolutionary Quooker boiling water tap.

When you need boiling water in the kitchen, to make a cup of tea for example, you simply turn the childproof tap, and the Quooker dispenses your hot water instantly.

You can think of the Quooker as an ingenious fusion between an electric kettle, a thermos flask, a water purifier and a height adjustable tap. The Quooker stores three litres of water at 110 degrees C, in an insulated tank, like a large thermos flask below the work-surface. As the tank is so well insulated, it is cool to the touch, and requires very little energy to keep the water hot. When you turn the tap, the water passes through a filter to purify it, and is dispensed in a fine spray, which helps protect against burns.

The Quooker originates in Holland, and is already fitted in over 100,000 kitchens in Europe. It is now available in the UK, in a variety of styles and finishes. If you’re fed up waiting for your electric kettle to boil, the Quooker boiling water tap costs from £688.
