Bought one a few months ago, the lid broke almost immediately... so I took it back, got another, which then started to leak... so I took it back and got another one, which has -- yup, you guessed it -- started to leak. Rubbish.
I'm going back to my beaten up old plastic Morphy Richards kettle, it might not look as smart as this one but it's 10 times better in terms of build and function. Avoid like the plague.

I bought mine 5 years ago and it has the same leaking problem when it's filled with over a pint of water. I've found a way to get around this, which is to turn the kettle slightly until it makes a subtle click sound. This still won't stop the leak completely but has saved me from having to wipe the surfaces all the time. My other complaint with this model is that the water indicator is written in material so easy to be worn out - it became indistinguishable in a few months. Also the florescent lamp went out within weeks which I haven't bothered to replace.
Still I've been using this kettle for 5 years now and its performance is consistent, probably because I only use filtered water in it, but it has served its purpose for long enough hence 2 stars.
