 good looks, mixed function July 10, 2008
C. Somers
My wife picked this out to replace another whistling tea kettle that plunged from the top of our fridge and broke its handle in multiple places. It has good looks; the main handle is well-insulated against heat transfer with gaskets between it and the body of the kettle; and the whistler can easily be locked in an 'up' position off the mouth of the spout to stop the piercing whistle immediately.
Two main things I dislike about this kettle:
1) it pours poorly. very poorly. Only when it is mostly full do you get a nice smooth pour, but once the level in the pot gets below a certain point, the water starts to flow more from the sides of the spout than the bottom. It is very difficult, and potentially messy, to pour all the liquid out of this pot.
2) the lid is VERY tight on mine - hard to snap out and in, and I have a good grip. Definitely not for folks with weaker hands.
It boils water June 27, 2008

It boils water but it can be a bit hard to pour it all out without spilling some.
 Love it June 16, 2008

Works fantastic. We love the spout opening because it stays open - you don't have to hold it while pouring.
definitely not a stellar kettle experience June 12, 2008

for starters, the product arrived with a very marred finish. don't know if all the stainless steel kettles have this, but was a bit disappointed. however, as it would have cost more to ship it back, i decided to keep it and deal and hope for the best.
in short: the kettle opening doesn't lend itself to easy cleaning. the handle gets rather hot to the touch when the water boils. the spout opener is a rather ill-thought-out concept -- pushing it down so close to boiling water/steam is not exactly a well-thought-out design feature.
in short, you'd probably be better served by a pan of water that has a pouring lip on the side. it's that disappointing.
great tea pot June 2, 2008
