    most of the "rapid boil" kettles are also described as "quiet" but are anything but quiet, The best is a normal kettle which might cost about €20 and boils in the normal time without doing a song and dance.

    i had a metal kettle for a few years, pretty loud, i bought a plastic one from argos, its silent, i have to keep touching it to see if its boiled. Its a thin plastic, couldnt see it lasting long though.

    Has our quest for perfection really come to this ?

    Ah no, not at all.
    Just looking for a kettle quieter than a hurricane. Perfection would be silence!

    Microwave - cheaper and quieter way to boil water.

    Better again is an induction hotplate
