Just about every appliance has the energy consumption given somewhere
on it. Things like kettles will have it stamped into the base etc in
watts. The actual footprint of course depends on use - and a low
wattage kettle won't save energy to boil the same amount of water -
probably the reverse.

Surely there are other factors beside power consumption? Appliances have
to be manufactured, transported, and disposed of at end of life, and
these involve CO2 production too.

True - but no one site can possibly have accurate figures on this. You can
make an educated guess yourself.
