An electric kettle for heating water located in a heating chamber of the kettle, the kettle including: a contact plate defining a base of the heating chamber and having a contact surface that, in use, is in direct thermal communication with the water when located in 5 the heating chamber of the kettle; a heat distribution plate bonded to an underside of the contact plate, wherein an inlet is defined in a peripheral region of the heat distribution plate, the inlet providing access to the underside of the contact plate and defining at least part of a thermally insulating zone; a heating element in thermal communication with the heat distribution plate; an electronic temperature sensor located 0 in the thermally insulating zone in thermal communication with the heating chamber, the electronic temperature sensor being thermally insulated from the heat distribution plate by the thermally insulating zone; a controller for controlling the heating element; and a user input for a user to select between different heating modes of the controller, wherein the controller controls the heating element responsive to a temperature sensed by the 5 electronic temperature sensor and dependent on a selection made using the user input.
