Simplex Kensington No.3 - Newey & Bloomer

Simplex Kensington No.3

  • It all began in 1903 when Newey & Bloomer produced the original whistling Simplex tea kettle.  Not everything has to change over time and the same copper spinning techniques are still used today, a tribute to another time.  Still handmade in England from the finest grade of copper – which is the best conductor of heat and ensures a faster boiling time and greater heat retention – the Kensington No 3 Simplex tea kettle has a hard-wearing, easy to maintain chrome-plated exterior will add a touch of class and elegance to any kitchen. The Kensington Simplex kettle is perfect for use on both gas and electric stoves, please note that these are not suitable for use on induction hobs without an induction hob adapter.

    Every Kensington No 3 Simplex tea kettle is handmade and unique, be sure to listen for its distinctive and original trill and check yours for it's "Made in England" stamp. Purchase yours to share in our wonderful history.

    Please allow 3-4 weeks for your kettle to be despatched, as each one is individually crafted by hand.

    • Clean chrome kettles with a wet soapy cloth and polish with a dry cloth to bring back its shine 
    • Use filtered water, particularly in hard water areas

    • Put your kettle in a dishwasher

    • Clean with any acidic cleaning agents
    • Scrub with steel wool or abrasive cleaning cloths/brushes or pads as this can lead to irreparable damage

      Sold on Simplex!

      This is my second Simplex Kensington Kettle in 13 years. I absolutely love this kettle and wouldn’t buy or use any other. I am just as impressed with the company - especially customer service. When my kettle arrived just days ago it was packaged so beautifully - you can see that not only does considerable thought goes into the making of this product (by hand) but the detail in preparing it to ship overseas is exceptional. Newey & Bloomer’s Simplex Kettles are simply superlative.
