Kmart Australia has released a stylish mint green kettle and matching toaster that look almost identical to high-end alternatives worth hundreds.
The $29 electric ‘retro’ products feature a ribbed design and add a touch of elegance to any kitchen.
The two-slice toaster has already sold out in selected stores, while the 1.7 liter kettle is still in stock everywhere.
The latest purchases resemble Smeg’s popular $199 pastel green kettle and $249 toaster from the 1950s.
Both the Smeg and Kmart kettles have similar features, including a 1.7 liter jug, 360 degree rotation, automatic and manual switch-off and a stainless steel heating element.

Other features of Kmart’s design include overheating protection and a 12-month warranty.
Smeg and Kmart toasters are also designed with similar features, but the high-end version has six browning levels.
In 2021, Kmart sold the ‘Euro’ kettle which shoppers described as a ‘fantastic’ product that ‘works beautifully’.

‘I like the color, also the quick cooking and it’s not so loud. Very fashionable, matches my kitchen,” one fan wrote.
Another said: ‘This cauldron is beautiful! So stylish. Functions perfectly. I like the blue light on the side. Color is beautiful. Highly recommended.’
Earlier this month, the department store quietly launched heated blankets and microwave-safe slippers in-store.
