We liked
- The kettle includes a built-in water-level indicator with a quick glance under the handle
- Washable Anti-Scale Filter for easy cleaning
- The built-in automatic shut-off mechanism prevents the kettle from boiling over or overheating.
- The non-slip feet on the kettle’s base offer additional security, keeping the unit from sliding around or scratching your
- Has Detachable swivel base.
- The cut off works well enough and is quite quiet, not the usual “clunk” that you get with some models once the water boils.
What we didn’t like
- This is quite a heavy kettle, even when empty, also for those who are used to more of a straight design
- Because of the bulbous shape you really do have to tip this a long way over to empty it when boiling a small quantity of water.
Our opinion
The De’Longhi KBO1401R Electric Kettle is a great item. Retro look, red color looked very nice. When you pour water it comes out in nice smooth way without dripping around. Base is steady and it sits on easy. Heats water up very fast and keeps water temperature for long time. Only that we wish the water level indicator was larger, but it is still a recommendable choice for your home or office.
