Unfortunately, this was an absolute bad buy. The kettle smelt incredibly uncomfortable when first used and the floor was leaking directly. Were added damage to the inner surface, the rust in the meantime. In vain I tried by phone, email and letter to the seller to exchange to the boiler. This has never reported back. I am instead around 30.00 poorer and have a broken kettle. The purchase of this item and these sellers are not recommended!
