Prestige Electric Kettle 1.2 Litre Review

Kitchen appliances are truly a boon. Whether manual or electric, they reduce the prep time needed significantly. Choppers, mixer-grinders, OTG, dishwashers, egg boilers- all these appliances aid with basic yet time-consuming tasks in comparatively quicker and easier ways. 

One severely underrated electric kitchen appliance is the humble electric kettle. Know what’s common between preparing a bowl of instant noodles, a cup of tea/coffee, a pack of soup? All they need is hot water and you have a snack ready almost instantly!

Not only do kettles boil water in 3-5 minutes, but they also eliminate the need for bringing out the pots and pans, automatically shut off once the water is boiled, and ensure less water evaporation compared to traditional methods.
