For those who value a coordinated, tactile kitchen finish above all else, the De'Longhi Argento Flora Toaster and Kettle bring matching styling and practical controls to the countertop. Practical browning settings and a clear water indicator make morning routines faster, so is a paired set the detail your kitchen has been missing?
⚡ At a Glance
- • Toasting Precision: Progressive electronic browning controls with four wide slots deliver repeatable colour and texture
- • Practical for: Households wanting a matched breakfast set that looks deliberate and works reliably for two to four people
- • Not for: Mobile café or heavy-shift servers; the 1.7 L capacity will force frequent refills and repeated boil cycles during continuous, high-volume service
The pair includes a four-slice toaster with variable-width slots, extra-lift and a removable crumb tray. The 1.7 L jug has a 360-degree detachable base, cord storage, a rear water level indicator and three safety shut-off measures.
Browning Control for the Modern User
Progressive electronic browning controls combine with four wide slots and a variable-width function to match thin slices, bagels and thicker artisanal loaves. Direct Impact: the settings keep results consistent so lunches and toast for guests come out the same shade every time.
Precise controls remove guesswork at the breakfast bar, letting users dial in colour without overcooking. Small items lift easily thanks to the extra-lift position, making removal safe and simple.
How 360° Swivel Base Changes Pouring and Storage
A detachable 360-degree swivel base and integrated cord storage let the jug lift off the base for genuinely cordless pouring, improving handling for both left- and right-handed users. User Scenario: handing a hot jug between two people becomes quicker because the base stays put while the kettle rotates to the most convenient angle.
If kettles pass between family members during a breakfast rush, the swivel base avoids tangled cables and awkward handovers. The rear water level indicator and the 1.7 L capacity (roughly the volume of a 2-litre milk carton) keep top-ups visible and predictable.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do I empty the toaster crumbs?
A: The crumb tray is removable, allowing quick removal and disposal of loose crumbs; wipe the tray with a damp cloth before replacing. Pro-Tip: empty the tray regularly to stop crumbs burning and creating odours during toasting.
Q: Where is the water level indicator positioned?
A: The visible gauge sits on the back of the jug for clear sightlines while filling. Pro-Tip: use the rear indicator to avoid overfilling and to measure roughly how many cups you have before boiling.
Q: What safety cut-outs does the kettle include?
A: Three protective measures exist: an auto shut-off when water boils, thermal cut-off and an auto shut-off triggered when the jug is lifted from its base. Pro-Tip: make sure the base stays dry and clear of scale to keep sensors operating correctly.
