DeLonghi Scultura Kettle KBZ 2001.GY (Steel Grey)

Leaks as soon as warranty is up – Was great to begin with, now leaks quite badly. Annoying as I bought other items to match. Won’t be buying another, now off to find something to match, not a happy camper Show details

Don't Buy! Its now discontinued – For an expensive kettle its a terrible. Stops working. DeLonghi Customer Service is hopeless, very unhelpful. A waste of money. The Kettle looks nice. Cant see the Water Level behind the handle. Show details

Beware - it leaks – Love the style of this kettle and bought the matching toaster but to my horror kettle started leaking just out of warranty. DeLonghi designs are great but the quality unfortunately leaves a lot to be desired. Show details

DeLonghi kettle leaks – We purchased both the DeLonghi kettle and matching toaster in 2017 (based on looks). The kettle began leaking about 6 months ago. This was an expensive kettle and I would expect a much longer life than this out of a kettle - and of course it is out of warranty. I put up with the leaking and it's just getting worse, so I just purchased a Russell… Read more

Hobbs kettle to replace it, which I had previously had, with a much longer life (10 years). So forget the fancy looking matching DeLonghi, go for something that actually lasts. Now they don't match, but they work!

Very disappointing Product – We bought a Delonghi Sculpture Kettle in June 2017 for $139 at a sale, and we found it began leaking two days ago. So just over 18 months, we have to throw it away since it is out of warranty. Now we have to go out and get another kettle - not Delonghi this time. How disappointing....... DELONGHI!  Show details

Beautiful, however very poor quality – The switch broke after 3-4 mo. of use. Very lightly used, we're are 3 member household of which only 2 use the kettle, our son isn't there yet:) The switch broke today, and it leaks through the same hole where a broken switch is. Pretty disappointing. We had Morphy RIchards beforehand that lasted 5 years that we purchased at big W. And I… Read more

thought if it lasts a few months that will do until we can buy something better.. Now the 'better' lasted 3 months.. it is absolutely infuriating. It was 199 and I purchased it for 169 just before xmas from David Jones.

I wanted to add, we are very gentle and careful with our appliances and really care for our things so it's not like we took things for granted and it broke because if was miss-handled.

Waste of money, poor reference for DeLonghi – Received as a present, failed after about 18mths due to toggle switch becoming loose. Apart from that, it is noisy, the fluid indicator is in an obscure position behind the handle and therefore had to see. Gone back to the old backup plastic kettle which is many years old. Not a great recommendation for DeLonghi  Show details

NOW they 'discont – $180 is not a cheap kettle. You'd expect a couple of years use. The knob on the lid - that you use the open the lid to fill the kettle - fell off. The paint on that pseudo Art Deco base peels off when you try to clean it, exposing patches of bare metal. Soon after it's turned on it's so noisy it sounds as if it's drawing a thousand volts straight… Read more

from the main electricity grid. Retro products would be great if they were as robust as the originals were a few decades back.

This doesn't position DeLonghi in the prestige product bracket.

Great design, shame about the works – Toaster and kettle bought from JB Hifi for around $120 each. Toaster face bubbled after a couple of months. Replaced no problem. Has shorted out occasionally for the last year or so. Kettle been leaking for a few months now. Checked warranty: only 18 months: rats. Aldi have matching toaster and kettle this week (March 2017) for $40 each. Bought… Read more

them. Checked warranty. Three years..... yes three years.... and the $120 (now $170) de longhi gives 18 months! DeLonghi used to equal quality. Not now it doesn't. Utter rubbish.

Do not waste your money! – Died after 7 months! Not happy. Do not waste your money on this kettle. A five dollar kettle would outlive this bad product! Love the look, was great to start with...., I even bought the matching toaster!! It will now be going into the bin. Not a very happy customer!!
