Primula Stewart Whistling Stovetop Tea Kettle Food Grade Stainless Steel, Hot Water Fast to Boil, Cool Touch Folding, 1.5-Quart, Brushed with Black Handle

Please, please wipe it really well after first boil. I didn’t expect black yuck on my paper towels. I am just glad I didn’t use my white tea-towel to dry the inside of the kettle. Maybe that black is polish? I really don’t know. All I know, I will do another boil and wipe really well again before I put the boiled water in my body! Handle does get very warm. Whistle isn’t really loud. If you happen to be in your bedroom or basement while it is boiling, and those rooms aren’t close to your kitchen, you may not hear the whistle. The kettle is pretty light weight. I only wanted a small kettle, it holds 1.5 quarts.

Works as expected. Only 2 things to point out. The handle does get quite warm/hot. Not to the point you can't lift it but just be aware. Also, the fill line is not visible on the inside that I could see. Not a big deal as it is pretty obvious where it should be, just a note. All in all a great value.

A nifty little tea, kettle, and a reasonable value for the money. Although it is advertised as a stainless steel tea kettle only the bottom is made of steel, and this is the reason for not giving 5 stars. The kettle itself is aluminum. I like its looks and its size. The whistle is clear and not so loud as to be obnoxious. Its construction seems durable, and with normal use and care, should give several years of good service.

Needed a sturdy pot to boil water on <essentially> a camp fire, this does the trick. 5 stars means I can't find anything to complain about with this item.

Looks good sitting on black range. Works as it should. Appreciate the whistle! (Made this switch from an electric kettle, as I would forget causing the safety feature to kick off after boil reached, and I would have to start the process, again, when I finally remembered.)

The tea kettle is way more lightweight than I expected it to be. However, from reading the maintenance instructions, I learned all the things I did wrong with my last heavier duty tea kettle. For that alone, I give this five stars. I also like the extra lock feature on the lid so hot water cannot accidentally spill. This seems like it is going to last longer than the last tea kettle I had, judging from the safety features alone.

This is a very lightweight kettle, I have purchased others for a little more that have had more heft. It does the job, but it can be better. For one the base is really thin and I have to make sure the flame is not too high. The handle of the kettle gets really warm, doesn't look like it's made of a suitable material. I was able to grip it but others in my household had to grab a towel to pick it up. It also does not whistle so it boiled for a while, before I realized the water was boiling.Also the pour is not good as it leaks a bit from the side. I can just flip open the spout, but it would have been nice to get a thinner pour for my pourover coffee. It's ok if you're trying to find something that will boil water for a really low price but I would recommend paying a bit more and getting a better kettle if you're going to use it regularly.

You need to cover the spout with a kitchen towel or something when opening it to avoid getting splashed with hot water, but the price is right!
