Although we use it constantly, few of us truly master its optimal use. From letting limescale build up, overfilling the appliance, and leaving it plugged in all the time, small mistakes can shorten its lifespan or alter the taste of your morning tea. Are you sure you're using your kettle correctly?
Common everyday pitfalls often overlooked:
Overfilling the water.
A classic mistake! Overfilling past the "max" line might seem convenient, but it's actually dangerous: water can overflow from the spout and splash. It also overloads the automatic shut-off mechanism and wears out the seals prematurely. In short: only fill it to the correct level.
