Rusty after three months
Was given the Chic kettle and toaster set as a present. After three months I noticed rust on the kettle lid and when I looked inside the base is also rusted.

Hi Marilynn,
Thank you for sharing your experience while using your Sunbeam The Chic Collection Breakfast Set.
We are disappointed to learn about your experience with the Chic Collection Kettle.
Not a good experience
The toaster in the duo pack was great BUT the kettle after 2 months of constant use developed a funky taste to the water so bad that I could smell it before my cup got to my lips & I would know that I wouldn’t be able to drink it. When I smelt the plastic inside the lid I figured that was creating the taste. I did clean the kettle but it made no difference. Aside from all that it was a really loud kettle. I returned the duo to the store & purchased another brand.

I purchased this matching set of kettle and toaster as they have to sit next to each other on the kitchen bench, and I like a simple uncluttered look. Also, buying the set that comes in one box was cheaper than buying two seperate appliances. They are both well made, stainless steel with some plastic parts, with a pearl white finish that is easy to keep clean. I prefer the side handle on the kettle as I've got arthritis and find top handle kettle difficult to use. This has 'one handed filling' with a button on the handle that flips up the l

The fill indicator on the side is clear on a white background with black numbering, and frankly there's not enough contrast between the clear plastic and clear water to see how full it is. The 'on' switch does have a light, so you can tell it's turned on. Compared to my last kettle this is noisy. The first time I turned it on it was initially quiet and then started to make a gentle noise as it heated up. I went two rooms away and could hear it getting louder and louder. Now, I can put the kettle on, go to another room, have the doors closed, watch TV, have the heater fan blowing, and still hear the kettle heating and then clicking off. I'll get used to it but if you want a quiet kettle then this is not for you. The toaster is a very basic two slot, with a dial for browning, that is clearly marked and has a nice sturdy feel when you turn it, clicking through the numbers 1-7. 3 buttons - cancel, reheat, defrost - light up when you press them. When you put in the bread and push down the lever, the cancel light turns on, and if you want to stop the toasting at any time you just press cancel and the bread pops up. You can lift the lever higher to get access to small bread or muffins. I've toasted several different types of sliced bread (wholegrain, soy linseed, fruit bread, and English muffins) and they've all come out darker on one side. I REALLY HATE THIS - and it was one of the reasons I replaced my old toaster. I want a piece of toast brown the same on both sides in one go - not toast, check, turn, change slots etc etc. So, bottom line, these are nice looking appliances with basic functions. If you're on a budget they're ok, but expect a noisy kettle and an uneven toast. Maybe it's just mine and yours will be better? (BTW - I purchased these from Appliances Online's ebay site with a discount coupon and paid $79 including next day delivery.)Questions & Answers
