Presented by the manufacturer as a kettle dedicated to tea lovers, the Bosch Styline TWK8611P offers 4 preset temperature levels. Let’s see if it is precise enough to fully satisfy the most demanding users.
The Bosch Styline TWK8611P has it all. It heats up quickly, offers a very effective warming function, benefits from a double wall that prevents burning and respects the required temperatures.

NB: The reported price drop is calculated by comparing the lowest price of the day with the average of the lowest prices charged by all merchants for the product last month, with security rules to exclude prices from shops whose the VAT policy is not clear (known as “grey” shops, typically in the case of imports from China).
Alternatively
The Siméo CT 250 has the advantage of being simple to use, quick to heat water, and it knows how to retain heat “naturally”; you don’t ask much more from an entry-level kettle. Tea aficionados who wish to have several temperature levels to infuse their precious and varied leaves will turn to the Tefal KI240D10, which is just as efficient and a little more sophisticated.
