The 108000 from Morphy Richards features a Modern Glass Kettle Design, manufactured from Duran Schott glass, allowing you to watch your water boil and light up while remaining perfectly safe due to Schotts quality of glass. Featuring an open handled ergonomic design, this kettle is easy to hold even when full, and pours from an invisible spout, giving this kettle a minimal understated look that radiates class and taste. Integral to the spout is a limescale filter; ensuring your hot drinks look and taste great. Easily view exactly how much water is in your kettle with the open glass design, reducing wasted water when compared with traditional kettles; the 108000 takes out all the guesswork. Versatile, highly resistant, easy to process; Duran glass was developed by scientist and company founder Otto Schott in 1897 and patented under the brand name Duran in 1938. Duran glass has been the standard material used to manufacture laboratory glassware since the 1950s.
