Hamilton Beach 1.7L Jug Kettle - Black vs 1.7L Jug Kettle - White — Comparison

HB1107B is the Hamilton Beach HB1107B 1.7L Jug Kettle - Black at £17, while HB1107W is the Hamilton Beach HB1107W 1.7L Jug Kettle - White, also at £17. These are matching colour variants in Hamilton Beach's entry-level jug-kettle line-up, so the comparison is almost entirely about finish rather than performance, capacity or feature hierarchy. For a UK product guide, treat them as sibling choices where practical details matter more than broad brand claims.

The specification is the same on both models: 1.7L capacity, 2200W power, a water level indicator and auto shut-off. That gives either version enough capacity for several mugs and enough wattage for everyday boiling without moving into premium fast-boil territory. Neither listing adds extra filtration, temperature control or quiet-boil features, so there is no functional advantage to the black HB1107B or the white HB1107W from the data provided. Those details matter in daily use because they shape how effectively the product works, how easy it is to live with and whether the price feels justified.

The HB1107B suits kitchens with darker worktops, black small appliances or a more discreet utility look. It is also the easier aesthetic match if you already own black toasters, microwaves or air fryers. The HB1107W suits lighter kitchens, rental flats with white goods, or buyers who want a clean and simple appliance that blends into the background. Since capacity, power and safety are equal, neither choice requires a compromise beyond colour preference. This is especially important when two listings look similar at first glance but target different rooms, routines or finishes.

Bottom line: choose HB1107B if you want the same £17 1.7L, 2200W kettle in black for a darker appliance set / opt for HB1107W if the white finish suits your kitchen better while keeping the same core specification.
