Vacuum and kettle ??
This question relates to:French lesson "Meilleur, mieux, pire / plus mauvais, plus mal = better, best, worse and worst in French (irregular comparatives and superlatives)"

HI D,
If I have understood your question correctly, your query is why we use 'mieux' in the case of the kettle example?
'mieux' follows the verb marcher and is the comparative form of the adverb 'bien'.
bon ----meilleur
bien----mieux
e.g.
C'est une bonne bouilloire mais celle-ci marche mieux.
Hope this helps!
