- How much water does the Smeg KLF05 hold?
- About 0.8 liters, roughly three to four cups. That is small next to the 1.7-liter kettles most brands sell.
- Is the inside stainless steel?
- Yes. The body is plastic, but the interior is stainless steel, so the water does not sit against plastic.
- Does it shut off by itself?
- Yes. It switches off automatically when the water boils and when the kettle is lifted off its base.
- Is $179.95 a good price?
- It is the only new price found as of November 8, 2026, at Aj Madison, so there is no cheaper new listing to compare. Basic kettles of this size sell for a fraction of that, so the premium is for the design.
- Can I put it in the dishwasher?
- No. Wash the stainless interior by hand and wipe the plastic body and base with a damp cloth.
- Does it have temperature settings?
- No. It has a single boil setting with auto shut-off, with no variable temperature or keep-warm mode.
- Where is the Smeg 50's Retro Electric Kettle KLF05RDUS cheapest?
- At Aj Madison, for $179.95, as of our latest check.
