A water heater eg. kettle (1) comprises a body (2) for containing water, a spout (7) for pouring water from the water heater (1), a chamber (39) within the body (2) which, in use, communicates with water in the water heater (1). The chamber (39) comprises a skirt (36) which, in use, extends through and below the surface of water in the water heater (1). The chamber (39) also has an orifice (22) which allows for the egress of steam from chamber (39) and wherein the chamber (39) is, in use, adapted to trap a proportion of steam evolved in consequence of the water heater boiling, with the steam being able to escape via the orifice (22). <IMAGE> |
