The Kelly Kettle 'Scout' 1.2 litre is the mid-size option in the Kelly Kettle range, sitting comfortably between the solo Trekker and the larger Base Camp. It boils around 4 cups of water in minutes using nothing but twigs, pine cones, dry grass or bark - no gas canister or bought fuel required. That makes it a strong all-rounder for anglers, car camping, scout groups, picnics and family trips, as well as a genuinely useful item to keep on hand for power cuts, storms or an emergency kit.
Want to cook as well as boil? Add our Pot Support & Cook Set to prepare noodles, rice, oatmeal or other quick meals while the kettle boils, or add the Hobo Stove accessory to turn the fire base into a standalone wood-fuelled camp stove once the kettle's off. Both sold separately.
Please note: Always carry the kettle upright when it is filled with water to avoid spillage from the spout or chimney top. If your kettle came with an orange rubber or cork stopper, remove it before use. Never boil the kettle with the stopper in place.

A very good little kettle, well made and sturdy, apart from the carry handle. The whole thing is let down by a very flimsy thin wire carry handle that bends easily. The rest of the kettle is very strong stainless steel, apart from the flimsy little tabs where they handle fits on. Shame.
Hi Ron, thanks for sharing your feedback. We're glad you like the kettle's build quality, and I appreciate your note about the handle. We have fed this back to Kelly Kettle for consideration on future improvements. Thanks for your support!
