Glossary
- Median
- The middle value of a sorted list. Half of the kettles cost less and the other half cost more; a very expensive kettle does not raise it.
- Spec sheet score
- A 0 to 10 score that the Radar calculates from capacity and temperature control. It does not measure what the spec sheet does not show.

Frequently asked questions
What is the median price of a new kettle today?
In the 06/11/2026 catalog, the median price is £52, across 279 new kettles from trusted sellers. Half cost less than that and half cost more.
How much does each score point cost?
Today’s collection doesn’t have enough kettles with a score to calculate this.
Why the median and not the average?
Because a few very expensive kettles pull the average up and hide the price most people pay. The median shows the kettle in the middle.
How often does the overview change?
Every day, with each new collection. Each collection saves a snapshot of the price and score of each kettle, and the "What changed" section compares today’s with the previous one and, when available, with the one from about a week earlier.

Where the numbers come from
Lowest price seen for the product in the stores we read, on the day it was read, including VAT. Median of each range calculated over the kettles in the range; the score only considers the kettles that have a score.
The overview describes the Radar catalog, not the whole kettles market, and the price is the one collected on the date shown.
