Enamel on Steel Tea Kettle

This kettle works perfectly. It looks and feels like quality. I don't get why it would have any bad reviews. It's pouring perfectly, the lid fits perfectly and is well designed, it boils water fast, the whistle sounds good and is loud, the handle and spout lid do not get too hot to touch. There are recommended care instructions thar are completely reasonable. Don't use a burner that is too big for the kettle and don't let the flames wrap around the sides. While not using it, don't keep water in it. Don't just leave it on the heat when it's done boiling. All reasonable. It's a really nice kettle and if you don't want to have to care about keeping it in good condition then just get a different cheap kettle. I love it.

I love so many things about this kettle. 1. It’s pretty and is a lovely addition to my kitchen aesthetic. 2. I like the sound of the whistle 3. It’s easy to clean 4. The handle stays cool so it’s easy to pour. 5. The size is just right for me and my company - serves 6 easily. What I wish was different- I wish it had a mechanism to access pour spout from the handle. It’s separate so you have to open the pour spout with your finger. Not so bad, bc the pour spout stays cool as well. One thing to be careful with- wait a few seconds before you pour the water out. Water has a tendency to sputter from the spout, at times. Can splash you, if you aren’t careful. For me, this is just normal tea kettle activity!

Stunning just to look at. Perfectly functional. Removable lid. Great whistle. Large but sized right for a 4 burner stove. Handle stays cool enough to grab and pour. The enamel coated inside is the icing on this gorgeous cake. My bf won’t use metal anything when cooking so this meets his criteria and frankly, hot water poured from its spout just tastes better. Based on the cost of a good pot of similar size, I’d say this kettle is priced right. I was extremely careful washing it. I don’t know how resilient the glossy exterior enamel is, and I don’t want to find out. Very happy with my purchase.

Shortly after we received the tea kettle, we noticed the enamel had chipped on the lid at the base of the cap. I filed a warranty claim and Le Creuset responded that it was "...cosmetic in nature and will not hinder its integrity or performance, so we will be unable to replace it under this warranty claim." I replied that "the tea kettle was clearly defective and the enamel flaked off after just one month. I know it’s safe to use. That’s not the issue. Had we not cared about the appearance or wanting a name brand that stands behind their product, we could have purchased a different tea kettle for at most half the cost. Surely the cost of a replacement kettle lid is inconsequential to a company such as Le Creuset and worth maintaining a satisfied customer.." They never replied to me. It's an attractive, heady-duty tea kettle that will likely provide years of service. For what it cost, it should. Unfortunately, it takes 2-3 times as long (15-20 minutes to reach boil) to heat water than our previous tea kettle, holds less water and the lid is extremely tight and difficult to remove. For these reasons, we'd likely return it if we could.

Holds ample water to fill my French Press. I didn't realize the first time that I would need a potholder or cloth to grab the handle, but it makes sense. I'm very happy with it.

So far so good on this tea kettle! The sticks drove me nuts with the residue they left, but I eventually got it fully removed after several scrubs in hot soapy water (what a pain, though). I love the color, the weight, and the design. And it works great.

Love my new teapot. The color is very pretty and a bit more orangey red than I thought but is okay anyway. It is a beautiful teapot but it has a hint of a dent, which I am not happy about, but not very noticeable so I will accept it. Also, a bit larger than expected, but again, that's fine too. I hope it lasts a long time. Never paid so much for a teapot but never had such a substantial nice one like this either. I highly recommend it for it's quality and beautiful finishing and vintage style. It looks so nice on my 1958 O'Keefe Merritt stove too!

I get to look at and use this beauty everyday. It whistles like a dream, especially love the pour. Feels sturdy and I expect this to last years. Well worth the purchase! .
