1.7 L Cordless Glass Kettle

The Better Chef IM-178S is a new electric kettle with a 1.7 litre capacity. Its glass and stainless steel construction suits households that want a clear view of the water level. The cordless design allows the jug to lift cleanly from the base for serving.

360 Degree Rotating Base

The single specification that decides fit is the 360 degree rotating base. It lets the kettle lock onto the power plate from any angle, so left-handed and right-handed users place it back without aligning a notch. The bright blue LED illuminates only while the element is heating.

Lift-and-Pour Installation

Installation is simply placing the jug on the base and plugging the cord into a mains socket. No tools or assembly are required. What usually goes wrong is forgetting to seat the jug fully flat, which prevents the automatic shut-off from engaging after the water boils.

Questions about this item

How much water does the 1.7 L capacity actually hold for daily use?

The 1.7 L capacity fills roughly seven standard cups, enough for a family breakfast or a small teapot without needing a refill.

What does the 360-degree rotating base allow in practice?

The base lets you lift and replace the kettle from any angle, so the handle always sits comfortably in your hand regardless of counter layout.

What clearance does the glass-and-steel body need on a worktop?

The cordless design only requires a flat, heat-resistant surface large enough for the circular base; no permanent mounting or extra rear clearance is needed.
