Designer Kettle, where, what...
I'm after a new (unique?) kettle for the kitchen. Found a few, but they all seem of similar design. After something fancy, black, chrome, or brushed stainless.
I quite like the milk jug style ones, like the Kenwood Eon/Siemens Porsche, but the wifey likes the clear/see through ones.
Anyone recommend one, or got some good links?

Anyone got any links of companies that may stock something different?

But we have all new appliances, and our grey/biege kettle just doesn't fit with the others. Simple as that.

Would be better for me if it didn't have the wooden handle though.

I wouldn't pay high prices for a kettle, at the end of the day it only boils water
I've got these, paid £30 as a set in BHS

Got the Brita filter one, not sure if it makes the tea/coffee taste any better but at least it gives me a chuckle watching the parents/in-laws trying to figure out how to fill and filter it 
Also got a Le Crueset one for on top of the range cooker, don't think we've ever used it, so more of an ornament than anything else.

By the way - it is more expensive but the finish / detail is where it wins : these £20 / £30 jobs cost that for a reason.

I got a Breville Spectra (mine is the White Illuminated on page 2).
Various models, but they glow all kinds of colours whilst boiling, keeping warm or simply on standby

p.s. Just noticed that the ScoobyNet spell checker is American
