Tried and tested by Quiet Mark, these kettles have been designed to boil silently. Smart Dish Washer
Looking for a quiet kettle that promises to boil silently? You've come to the right place. Whether you're on the hunt for a matt black design or a smart all-in-one kettle, Quiet Mark has uncovered the best ones that won't wake up your household or break the bank.
'Kettles are a synonym of calmness,' say the experts at Quiet Mark. 'In order to minimise disturbance, overall levels should aim to be reduced whenever possible by isolating the boiling sound from the outside and ensuring that what does get projected through the "whistle" is not overly tonal or present.'
Quiet Mark, the independent global certification programme launched by the UK Noise Abatement Society, helps shoppers find the quietest appliance technology and acoustic materials on the market to support their health and wellbeing. While it is difficult to engineer a quiet kettle as it has to boil in under two minutes (which is no easy feat), Quiet Mark discovered the best on the market, including models from Lakeland, Sage and Dualit. In fact, out of almost 150 kettles tested by the team, only very few models pass for the Quiet Mark certification.

With a smart, silver appearance, this multi-patented classic kettle has a whisper boil feature that drastically reduces unwanted boiling noise. It has been fitted with a fast 3Kw element (meaning your tea will be ready quicker), and two measuring windows with cup level and litre indicators. Choose from a range of finishes to suit your kitchen design.
You can never go wrong with white. Described by Quiet Mark as a 'practical kitchen companion', this quiet kettle has a bold textured white finish and a 1.7 litre capacity — perfect for busy households. We think it would look good on any kitchen counter.
On the hunt for a traditional kettle that doesn't compromise on style? With its classic curved design and top-mounted handle, this practical kettle hits the spot. If you can't function without your morning coffee, then you'll be pleased to know that it has a rapid-boil function. Plus, it also comes with a removable water filter to keep limescale out.
This all-in-one kettle, chiller and filter jug is what every kitchen needs. As well as being certified by Quiet Mark, it has seven temperature options and seven different volume capacities. And, because you only boil the amount of water you need, it's a great way to save on energy bills. Making your early morning coffee without waking up the household just got easier.
Dualit's matt black kettle is ideal for modern kitchens. Its long, slim 'gooseneck' spout allows for a more even flow of water, while it is also ideal for using with drip-through coffee makers. Perhaps the most handy feature is that the kettle can also be muted so no key tones or feedback sounds will be heard.
Tea lovers will adore this clever glass tea maker. With a silent boil, simply press a button and watch as the small basket of tea blends into the water. There's also a handy timer so you can sip your morning brew right away. It's a little steep at just under £210, but can be used for a whole host of different tea varieties.
