Wattage is simply how fast the element heats the water: a 2200W kettle boils noticeably quicker than an 1800W one and uses roughly the same total energy to do it, because it runs for less time. What actually wastes energy is boiling more water than you need, which is why the water-level window matters more than the number on the box.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long does it take to boil?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAround 45 seconds for a single mug and roughly 3 to 4 minutes for a full 1.7 litres, depending on your starting water temperature.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do you descale it?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFill to about half with equal parts water and white vinegar, or use a proprietary descaler, leave it to stand, then boil, discard and rinse twice. The concealed element means there is no exposed coil for scale to build up on, so this is needed far less often than on an open-element kettle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan the filter be removed and washed?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. The mesh limescale filter clips out from behind the spout, rinses under the tap, and clips back in.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it keep water hot?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo, this is not a temperature-hold kettle.
