Great looks, good service - but then it fails Bosch build a great-looking kettle, gracing any kitchen counter-top.

good reputation but bad taste Did everything it says on the box but left a bad taste in my mouth. I have had Bosch appliances for years (fridge & several drills) and trust them explicitly. I contacted Bosch and they said that there was a problem with the bonding component they had used with their sealant. It should only have affected a limited amount of stock which has now been remove by Bosch. Does Amazon have a batch of bad stock? I opted for a different make of kettle. I now own a Morphy Richards. Amazon were very good and... more info
