I have my new kettle. Thanks for all the input and advice. I’ve now decided that, much as I like it, I may still invest in a kettle tipper as it’s annoying to have to go for the oven gloves every time to protect the hand holding the spout side.

I fancy one of the small, cheap ones but the ones I’ve seen appear to be for corded kettles and mine’s a cordless jug type. The only ones I’ve seen for cordless kettles are big, cumbersome things that’ll take up half the unit top and charge you 2-3 times as much for the privilege.

Does anyone know different, please?

    I haven't got one Sticky....

    But in a former life used to help others get this sort of equipment. I think you are right and the ones for cordless are more cumbersome than corded ones.

    Have you tried ebay (from the cost point of veiw?). Otherwise they'll set you back about £20 :shock:

    Good luck

    A kettle tipper is a device that...er....tips kettles :roll: . Unlike my hands, it does this in a manner that's safe and doesn't scald fingers :)

    Thanks for the input everyone. I'm too tight-fisted to pay more for a tipper than I did for the kettle so the oven gloves will have to stay.
