Electric Kettles & Electric Toasters

Whether you work from home or as part of a conventional office setup, kettles and toasters are two of the most essential elements of your kitchen facilities. The humble electric kettle keeps the teas and coffees rolling and can even be used to make a cheeky pot of instant noodles. Bread toasters give those office early birds a chance to get themselves ready for the day or add a crunchy twist to that standard lunchtime sandwich. Our range of electric toasters and hot water kettle models gives you and your staff the ability to keep topped up from first thing in the morning right until it's time to down tools.

How to choose an office kettle

When choosing an office kettle, the first thing you want to look at is its capacity. A small electric kettle will do just fine if you're a one-person band working from home. However, if you've got more than a couple of employees, you'll want something that doesn't need refilling every five minutes. Our kettles go all the way up to those with the capacity for almost two litres, so there should always be something in the pot for the next thirsty person in the queue. It's also worth considering how quickly the water comes to a boil. As a rule of thumb, the higher the wattage, the faster the electric water will boil. Our range includes those that offer a more leisurely approach to those that get the job as quickly as possible.

Style and substance

Style is another crucial factor in the office kettle-buying process. While your backstage kitchen might usually be reserved for your staff, there might be those unforeseen occasions where a customer or VIP is allowed behind the scenes. Choosing a hot water kettle that looks as stylish as your other office equipment is a great way to reinforce those all-important first impressions to visitors with an Access All Areas pass. However, it can also be worth buying something with an attractive aesthetic to communicate your commitment to your colleagues and let them know just how much you value them.

Raising a toast

There are similar factors to take into account when you're choosing electric toasters. Again, the first one to think about is capacity. Entrepreneurs flying solo from home will only need an appliance with space for two slices of bread. When it comes to time-pressed workplaces with several staff members, considering those bread electric tos with room for at least four pieces at one time could help break up the mid-morning queue for the kitchen and get everyone back to their desks that much quicker. The other alternative is to buy a series of two-slice electric toasters and put them at strategic points around the office kitchen. This approach can be even better, preventing those time-burning bottlenecks.

Is this the right colour?

Much like tea and coffee, everyone likes their toast a different colour. While hot drinks might be easier to manipulate, we offer appliances with settings that allow you to choose the ‘doneness’ of your preferred slice. Another consideration that often goes overlooked is those with gluten intolerances. Having separate bread toasters for coeliacs and those with allergies to wheat ensures that you give your employees the care and attention they deserve.

Use your loaf in style

While a toaster might not seem the most glamorous of appliances, the style and finish can impact the aesthetics of your kitchen and office, no matter how small. Our collection of electric toasters is available in a range of shapes and sizes, colours, and finishes, allowing you to choose the one that enables your office to scheme to flow freely, from the kitchen itself to the areas where that business magic happens.
