Italian passion for elegant design, a penchant for color, and technological innovation characterize the De’Longhi Icona collection. The Icona Electric Kettle evokes the Italian spirit of la dolce vita, enhancing the design of any modern kitchen with a touch of style. The Icona Collection, which also includes the Icona 2 Slice Toaster and the Icona Espresso Maker, is inspired by the bold, striking lines of 1950s Italian design; a time when Italy was just beginning to dictate the rules of fashion and style to the world. De’Longhi Icona adds a touch of class, creativity and elegance to any kitchen. The high-gloss finish and curvaceous design of the 1950s retro kettle transforms breakfast into a moment of sheer indulgence.

Whether you choose black, red, or white, your Icona Electric Kettle will feature a sleek, high-gloss metal body with elegant chrome accents, adding a touch of glamor to your day.
Water Gauge Shows Water Level at a Glance
The kettle includes a built-in water-level indicator with a quick glance under the handle, so you’ll know exactly how much water you’re boiling.
Washable Anti-Scale Filter for Easy Cleaning
Calcium carbonate is naturally present in tap water and can leave chalky lime scale deposits on your kettle. Without attention, lime scale buildup affects a machine’s functionality and shortens its useful life. The removable, washable anti-scale filter in the Icona Electric Kettle makes preventative maintenance easy and ensures a longer-lasting product.
Built-in Safety Features
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 surface.
Kettle rotates 360 degrees on the base.

least plastic exposure I could find I love it! My only negative which is the main question brought forward is, is there any plastic. Yes.

Water would be exposed in that area to plastic via traveling through the tube. I’m on the very highly sensitive to chemicals/plastic etc. I’ve been hunting forever and decided to go with this and if I needed to just use the…
Stylish kettle, but heavy and base is quite big This is a nice stylish kettle that boils pretty fast on 110V (but we still miss the UK 220V that boils in half the time!).
Best Electric Kettle Ever! Love this kettle! Works perfectly and a great color for a retro kitchen. Absolutely no complaints. Boils water fast and switches off when it is done. Love the safety feature.
