Choosing the right kettle and toaster combo for your kitchen
A kettle and toaster set is a match made in heaven and the perfect way to start your morning off right! As two of the most commonly used appliances in a household, it's important that you buy a kettle and toaster that will not only suit your needs but fit nicely into your kitchen. Before you buy a new breakfast set, consider these factors:
-
Size. A two slice toaster will suit a one to two person household, while a four slice toaster is great for larger households or if you like stacked toast for breakfast.
-
Material. Toasters and kettles come in different materials, including stainless steel, glass, plastic and ceramic.
-
Design. A kettle and toaster set usually takes pride of place on a countertop. Make sure you choose a design, colour and finish that will complement your existing decor.
-
Features. Discover a range of features designed to make breakfast super easy and to your exact liking. There are removable crumb trays, long slots for large bread, adjustable heat settings, reheating options and much more.
Consider your counter space needs
The size of your kettle and toaster set will depend on the size of the available space you have on the counter. We have short 2 slice toasters and wider toasters to fit in 4 slices of bread at once. There are also compact kettles, such as the 1.25L KitchenAid Artisan KEK1222 Electric Kettle, pyramid kettles and tall, statement kettles with a 1.7L capacity, such as the Alessi Plisse Electric Kettle.
