Brand Story By KitchenAid Review: USED TO Love this Kettle like a Hobbit Loves Second Breakfast. - MY FIRST REVIEW: uhh... seriously this is one of the cutest, awesome working, easy kettles i've ever had, hands down my absolute fav of all time... and I'm nearly 50:) I don't have anything really technical to say about it. its a qualtiy product. use is intuitive. I could easily keep this one for the rest of my days. and barring any unforseen weird malfunction, I would buy another one to replace...just a great all around product. I would definitely recommend as a gift. there is a wide color assortment too. FINAL: I PURCHASED THIS KETTLE July 22, 2017. TODAY IT STOPPED WORKING (2/08/2020). I am very sad - i loved this tea kettle. Truth is, This has been a work horse in our kitchen. Daily morning and often evening use as well. I'm not sure how long i expected this countertop appliance to work but it was longer than this. I have to say, that I still enjoyed using it everyday, the aesthetics bring a smile to my face still. On closer inspection the base has a small melted blemish, (I'LL POST PICS) but it's not near the connectors so i don't know if that's the cause or what. But now I have to make another purchase, and I'm not sure what to do. I've tried connecting with kitchenaid via their live chat but it isn't working today, so i sent them an email and have to wait a few days to hear back. In that time I will have already decided what to do. In fact I will most likely purchase one more and give this little dynamo the benefit of the doubt. I may also try just using the kettle on the stove...it is stainless steel after all. I still highly recommend this product. We are high use users, and this would probably have lasted another year or so with avg./normal wear. Review: Well Designed and Beautiful! - This KitchenAid electric kettle is an absolute gem!

Highly recommend it! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Kettle! 3 years old and still works like new. *by L***N on November 25, 2024* I've had this kettle for 3 years. It has no rust. It still works like new. I would buy it again. Update: It has now been 5 years. I use it two or three times daily, and the inside still looks new. I occasionally rinse it with white vinegar, and that keeps it free of buildup of any kind. The outer paint is chipped all over, as I expected it would be over time. See pic. Any painted stainless kettle will, but it still looks good, the chipped paint adding to its retro look. It just started leaking out of the bottom, and I need to replace it since it's leaking from what is connected to the electricity. I'm disappointed about this. For $100, it should have lasted more than 5 years. I will buy one of the many offered on Amazon for 1/2 the price, and with no plastic. ## Frequently Bought Together - KitchenAid KEK1222PT 1.25-Liter Electric Kettle - Pistachio - KitchenAid 3.5 Cup Food Chopper - KFC3516, Pistachio - KitchenAid 4 Slice Toaster, KMT4109PT, Pistachio --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/18594107-kitchenaid-1-25l-electric-kettle-kek1222-pistachio](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/18594107-kitchenaid-1-25l-electric-kettle-kek1222-pistachio) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-09-11*
