Dualit 72010 Jug Kettle - Black

Hello there,

The supplier has advised the Dualit 72010 Jug Kettle - Black is 2.4KW.

I hope this helps.

Thank you for using Q&A.

Hi Pete

The lead is 65cm long

Thanks for using Q & A

From the point where the cable comes out. The base if the plug, to the point where the cable enters the kettle base is 70cm.
The base itself is 16.5cm in diameter.
Currently, my kettle is stood 70cm to the right of the wall socket which it’s plugged into (the centre point of that wall socket is 25cm above the surface of the worktop).
In this position there is no strain on the cable, but it is not possible to move the kettle further away.
For context; I have the Dualit four slice toaster and the kettle plugged into a double socket. The toaster sits directly in front of the socket (10cm in front, so the toaster doesn’t heat the cables of course). There is a small gap, then I have a set of tea, coffee, sugar canisters in a row, a small gap, then the kettle. Looks fine and is certainly not too squashed together.
A lot of info, but hopefully covers all bases for you.

Hi Tina

Yes (according to the Dualit website).

Thanks for using Q&A.

This is a question I asked Dualit direct, the mesh filter at the top of the spout is made of metal that is encased in a plastic frame. The water guage is clear plastic. Dualit assured me that these parts are BPA-free. I chose the kettle as the vast majority is plastic free. I think most kettles with a water level guage will have a plastic part in them. Also, loved this kettle but its developed 2 annoying faults after 6 years, it should have lasted longer but nothing does anymore!

Hi Che,

This item comes with a fully washable limescale filter which goes inside the kettle but is completely safe.

Hi Nicola,

No, the heating element is not replaceable on this Dualit 72010 Jug Kettle.

Thank you for using Argos Q & A

It’s quieter than the previous model I had. I couldn’t hear the radio over the racket it made. Given its function, I think the noise is acceptable.

Hi Flossie,

Thanks for your query about the Dualit 72010 Jug Kettle - Black.

I'd be unable to give an accurate answer to this as how noisy and item is is subject to personal perception/opinion and is highly subjective.

I wouldn't say it was very quiet, in fact it can be quite noisy when coming to boiling point.
I've found that the kettle is noisier before it is descaled, then it is a little quieter for a while.

Hi Jill,

As the volume of operation is subjective by listener I am unable to provide a definitive answer to your question. (the operational noise is not rested via a decibel meter by the manufacturer)

I would suggest reading reviews of the kettle both on our site and externally, so you may acquire an informed opinion in relation to the kettles noise level

Hope this helps and Thank you for using Argos Q&A

Not particularly quiet, considering cost of kettle.

Thank you for your question. The 72010 Lite Jug kettle is certified as completely BPA free.
