Russell Hobbs Brita Purity Filter Clear Plastic Kettle 22851 has Brita filtration built-in, which will ensure you get the best-tasting brew with zero limescale. The filter cartridge reduces limescale, metals, and chlorine, filtering your water slowly to remove impurities. On top of that, it also has a built-in indicator that lets you know when the cartridge needs changing and rapid boil too. All for under £40.

Customer review: "I would never use ordinary kettle. The filter in this kettle make so much difference to the water. You can tell by taste. It's blessing. I have three. One for home, one for office and one for my daughter."

The COSORI Glass Electric Kettle has a heat-resistant stainless steel lid that incorporates a water filter. Much more durable and easier to clean than plastic, this glass and metal kettle is robust. It can boil water in just four minutes. Plus, it features an attractive blue LED light that illuminates the water.

Customer review: "Looks far more expensive and quality is great so much better than expected. The glass is easy to clean and the heating element is massive for a really good rolling boil. Couldn't ask for better."

Not everybody wants a scalding cup of tea, especially if you like to drink it without waiting around. Plus, water that's too hot can affect the taste of certain teas too. Fortunately, Sage The Smart Kettle solves that problem. With one-touch settings, you can alter the temperature between 80-100°C — the handy instructions booklet comes with the best recommendations for a whole host of teas. Plus, to keep the limescale at bay, the kettle is fitted with a removable, washable limescale filter, a concealed heating element, and a large opening for easy cleaning.

Customer review: "I got this kettle about a month ago I and it just brings me joy every time I use it. Now I now the best temperature for each drink and it really makes the difference. I'd recommend this kettle to all my friends."

This Russell Hobbs 20760-10 Brita Purify Kettle is much the same as the Russell Hobbs Brita Purity Filter Clear Plastic Kettle, the difference being it's made of glass instead of plastic. This does make the kettle a little more expensive and heavier, but it definitely has its perks. It's the purest material for a kettle (it doesn't release any metals) and is even easier to clean. This kettle also has a rapid boil, a concealed heating element, and a BRITA filter system.

Customer review: "I bought this in 2020 and I'm still very happy with it. The Brita water filter is indispensable in Dorset as the water is hard as nails and without it your brew will taste disgusting. The filter also ensures that the glass stays pretty and clear until the filter needs to be changed. I prefer kettles with an inbuilt water filter as they tend to last longer and this has been a reliable kettle, easy to clean and looks great."

Not only do we love the elegant design of this Breville Impressions Electric Kettle, but it's one that's been highly rated by reviewers. And, from the experience of using this kettle, we've found this one did a fantastic job of keeping our drinks limescale-free as well as being easy to clean. The kettle, available in five traditional kitchen appliance colours, has a lift-off lid and concealed heating element for easy cleaning. The limescale filter is removable and washable, and the quick boil prevents limescale from having the opportunity to develop.

Customer review: "I love this kettle and I love this brand I have the toaster to match fast boiling and looks great worth every penny."

Boasting an elegant, pearlescent design, you can choose from a range of six colours. This BREVILLE Lustra VKT065 Jug Kettle has a removable and cleanable limescale filter to catch limescale and keep it from leaving the spout. It's also easy to clean too. The lid completely lifts off, and the heating element is concealed to prevent limescale from gripping on. Reviewers also found that the coating on this kettle prevents drip and finger marks from being visible.

Customer review: "Looks really good in my kitchen as it matches my toaster. Seems to boil quicker than my last kettle."

This might be the most expensive kettle on our list, but you can't resist the iconic design of a Smeg appliance. Its beautiful design, available in a bunch of colours, is inspired by the retro-chic of the 1950s and comes with a range of practical features. For those in hard-water areas, the most beneficial is the concealed heating element and the stainless steel removable limescale filter — more robust than most — that'll remove any impurities before they enter your cup.

Customer review: "This lives up to the brand expectancy. It has high quality buttons and has been made to a premium robust standard. Plus is looks amazing on display on my work surface. My only quibble, I can't easily see the water reservoir on the side and so I am prone to over fill it."

If you find yourself rushed off your feet or need that morning cuppa urgently to feel more alive in the mornings, look no further. The Russell Hobbs Inspire Kettle can boil a cup of water in just 45 seconds. The easy-view water window with boil illumination will help you hit the right mark — great for energy efficiency too. The kettle includes a removable limescale filter and concealed heating element inside its sleek accented design.

Customer review: "This is certainly the slickest kettle that we have had, but not just that it cleans up easily, its fast, its very quiet compared to our last one, it is easy to fill and the markers inside allow you to boil just enough for one cup and the spout filter works well and is easy to remove and refit when it needs cleaning."

One thing most reviewers could agree on was how great the quality of this kettle was. Lightweight yet sturdy, the design is both modern and nostalgic, available in black or cream. With rapid boil, this kettle will heat up nice and fast and help limit the amount of limescale build-up. It comes with a concealed heating element, lift-off lid, and limescale filter for a fresh taste with every cup.

Customer review: "A lovely looking kettle that is extremely functional. It boils very quickly and says it makes up to 7 cups (not mugs). The lid lifts off making it easy to fill and has a fully concealed element which makes it easier to remove lime scale. I really like this kettle especially because the water tastes pleasant not leaving an after taste like some do. A fair price for a good kettle. The cord is a little short that is the only negative."

While this isn't technically a kettle, it's the best way to achieve the same great filtration as the Russell Hobb filter kettles but with a better capacity. Perfect for tea or coffee lovers looking for a quick caffeine fix, this Breville BRITA HotCup Hot Water Dispenser is designed to deliver a hot cup of water in under 50 seconds. It has a huge 1.8-litre capacity to hold enough water for seven to nine cups and has variable dispense, so it can auto-switch off if you're busy preparing other drinks. It has the BRITA filter technology and the bonus of a permanent limescale filter built-in too.

Customer review: "This is genius, it boils a cup of water in less than a minute. Turn it to large cup for a full mug of water but turn it down so it has space for milk or when using a smaller cup. I've plugged in to a smart plug... get your cup ready and on the drip tray. Turn off the plug, press the start button on the machine (yes it stays down) and when you want your coffee just ask Alexa to turn on the plug (I called it kettle)."
