Questions about this item

What power outlet does the 1500 W kettle require?

The kettle plugs into a standard household mains socket; no special outlet or dedicated circuit is needed.

Can I keep using my existing stovetop kettle alongside this 1500 W electric model?

Yes, both can sit on the same worktop; the electric version simply replaces the hob for boiling water.

How do I know the Strix thermostat is operating correctly after first use?

The kettle switches off automatically once the water reaches a full boil, and the boil-dry protection activates if the jug is empty.
