A very informed source tells me that is a 2014 compact kettle!

No but I'll try and get back down there over the weekend and get some more pics. I'm pretty sure it wasn't the compact model

The screw in the top vent gives it away as a Compact

Compact for sure. But the BQ puts me in the "I got nothin" camp. But it opens up the door to engrave whatever you wish in the former date code spot on new regular kettles. You could turn those vents into Valentines Day candy heart messages...or monogram your kettle... ::)

Ok guys you were right, it is a compact. Someone had switched lids with OTS


@kirsty do you know anything about the BQ date code?
