A Ribbed Sleeve With Two Windows and a Chrome Collar Above Them1.6 L Glass Kettle Black Sleeve Dial

HKM-5957587 is a 1.6 L glass kettle wrapped in a black ribbed sleeve that leaves a tall window at the front and a second, smaller one below it. Above the sleeve sits a polished chrome collar with the brand on its face, a steel lid with a knurled knob, and a black handle whose lower half is a brushed steel grip.

The base is a slim silver plate with a round dial at one corner. It suits a desk or a small kitchen where the kettle is looked at as much as used: the sleeve protects the glass and the hand at once, the two windows show the level and the boil, and the chrome collar gives the top third a different material from the black below it.

The vessel is glass, sleeved in a black moulding that is ribbed vertically around the flanks and cut away at the front to leave two apertures: a tall window in the upper half and a shorter one below the waist.

Body, Material and Fit

The sleeve is what makes the kettle holdable while hot and what protects the glass from knocks at the same time.

Above the sleeve the glass continues into a polished chrome collar, and the lid is a steel disc with a knurled knob on a short stem.

The handle is a squared loop in black with a brushed steel lower section — the grip — and the spout is a short beak formed at the collar.

• Capacity: 1.6 L
• Body: Glass with a black ribbed sleeve
• Collar: Polished chrome, brand on the face
• Handle: Black loop with a brushed steel lower grip
• Base: Silver plate, black glass top, round dial
• Safety: Automatic shut-off, per the listing

Fill through the open lid, set the body on the plate, and set the cycle on the dial; the panel shows a three-digit figure, 100 °C in the photographs. Automatic shut-off ends the boil, as the listing states.

Heating, Capacity and Control

The sleeve keeps the outside cool enough to handle at the waist while the collar stays hot.

The glass is the reason for the sleeve rather than the other way round: a bare glass kettle is light but hot to touch and vulnerable at the edge, and the moulding solves both without hiding the water.

The two windows are placed where the level matters — the tall one for a full fill, the short one for the last cup.

It keeps the outside cool enough to hold at the waist, and it takes the knocks that would otherwise reach the glass at the rim; the ribbing is what gives a thin moulding enough stiffness to do both.

Who It Fits and How It Pours

A bare glass kettle is lighter, hotter and more fragile, and the sleeve buys back the first of those without the other two.

The tall window runs through the upper half and the shorter one sits below the waist, with an opaque band between them.

• Fills are read at the top window and the last cup at the bottom one
• Both windows are also where scale shows first
• The control is a round dial at the front corner of the plate with a three-digit readout
• What the listing does fix is the automatic shut-off at the boil

What's in the Box

HKM-5957587 ships in one carton with the the product and the parts listed above. Check each item against the list before the first use, and keep the carton for the first month in case something has to go back.

Color and Finish

Wash the body by hand with warm water and a soft brush; the glass inside the sleeve is reachable through the lid opening, and the windows are the places to check for film.

Neither the body nor the plate is dishwasher safe.

Care and Maintenance

For mineral film, stand a little white vinegar and water in the kettle and rinse twice. Wipe the chrome collar with a dry cloth, wipe the plate rather than washing it, and leave the lid off so the glass dries through.

No wattage and no temperature range is published, so neither is given. The listing describes the kettle as mini and portable, and at 1.6 L with a flat plate base it packs more easily than a steel kettle of the same volume.

The plate is a rounded rectangle and the body is a tapered cone, so the pair takes a little more depth than a round base; set it with the dial toward the hand and the spout turned toward the cup.

Because the body is glass under the sleeve, it should not be set down hot on a cold stone worktop. The sleeve is not a cosmetic shell over a glass kettle.
