    We have Tefal KO 299 in our office. The kettle is cool, not expensive, looks stylish, heats water quickly, does not stink of plastic, fits comfortably in the hand. It's good that there is an auto-shutdown, our old kettle burned out due to the fact that the water boiled away. The body is quite durable, it has already flown a couple of times, surprisingly, there is only a small scratch on the side. Of the minuses, the cord is a little short and the case heats up, not much, you can’t get burned, but it’s quite noticeable.

    We use the Tefal KO 2701 Aqua 2 kettle in the office. In the office, we boil the kettle very often and it serves us faithfully. Lightweight, comfortable, boils quickly, turns itself off. We did not notice that it boils for a long time. We like. Great for office life.
