Overview
A kitchen counter boils water for tea, pour over coffee or a French press with this Breville kettle. Water heats in the stainless steel body on a multi directional base, then the kettle lifts free so you can pour without a cord in the way. The soft top lid and handle are built for one hand pouring at the counter.
Cordless pouring is what separates this kettle from a stovetop pot: the base stays put and the body travels to the cup. The stainless finish wipes down easily but the body itself is hand wash only, so it never goes in a dishwasher. Capacity suits a round of drinks rather than a single mug.
Who it's for
A household that boils water several times a day and wants the kettle to leave the base for pouring. Skip it if dishwasher cleaning matters, since the body is hand wash only.
Pros and cons
- Cordless body lifts off the base
- Multi directional base for either hand
- Brushed stainless steel finish
- Boils enough for a round of drinks
- Hand wash only, no dishwasher
- No temperature settings listed
- No auto shutoff details listed
Performance notes
Heating comes from a high wattage element running on standard household voltage, so the wait depends on how full the body is and how cold the water starts. The multi directional base lets the kettle land at any angle, and the cordless body means pouring happens away from the outlet.

Frequently asked questions
Is the Breville Soft Top Pure kettle a stovetop kettle?
No. It is an electric kettle that heats on its own multi directional base and runs on 110 volts, so it does not go on a burner.
What comes in the box with the BKE700BSSUSC?
The box holds the electric tea kettle, the multi directional base and the instruction book. Nothing else is listed as included.
Can the kettle body go in the dishwasher?
No. The care instructions call for hand washing, so the stainless body should be washed by hand.
How much water does the Breville Soft Top Pure hold?
The capacity is 1.7 liters, which the listing describes as about 7 cups.
Does the kettle need to sit a certain way on its base?
The base is multi directional, so the cordless body can be set down at any angle before it heats.
