Mackenzie-Childs Courtly Check Electric Kettle

Not every kitchen has a gas range or ceramic cooktop. The Courtly Check Electric Kettle is MacKenzie-Childs for the modern countertop — the same unmistakable black-and-white check pattern on sleek stainless steel, with rapid boil, a cordless swivel base, and automatic shut-off. Works everywhere a power outlet exists, including induction kitchens.

Important construction note: unlike the stovetop enamel kettles, the Electric Kettle uses a hand-applied transfer decoration on a stainless steel body with a chrome plated ABS handle and lever — a different manufacturing process suited to the electric format. The look is unmistakably Courtly Check; the construction is optimized for countertop performance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the Electric Kettle work on induction cooktops?
It's a countertop appliance, not a stovetop kettle — it plugs into any standard outlet and works in any kitchen regardless of cooktop type, including induction.

What is the capacity vs the stovetop kettles?
The Electric Kettle holds 1.7 litres (approximately 7 cups), compared to 2 quarts (8 cups) for the standard 2-quart stovetop and 3 quarts (12 cups) for the larger enamel version.

Is the decoration the same as the enamel kettles?
The Courtly Check pattern is the same visually, but applied differently — a hand-applied transfer on stainless steel rather than hand-painted ceramic glaze on the enamel stovetop kettles.

How do I clean the Electric Kettle?
Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth only. Never immerse the base or kettle body in water. Descale the interior periodically with a white vinegar and water solution.
