5.0 out of 5 stars Classic style in a tea kettle, January 30, 2009

I have owned this tea kettle for five years and it has proven to be as good as other Alessi products. It is easy to clean, comes to a boil rather quickly and clicks off when done. Beautiful style is expensive in the world of tea kettles. If you can put up with ugly, there are many tea kettles to choose from. There is no reason for manufactured goods to not look like designers worked on them rather than engineers and if you want a tea kettle to make a statement, this is it.

I haven't had this kettle long but I LOVE it! Over the last year I have bought 4 kettles ranging from $60 - $80 and all have been disappointing, to put it nicely, with defects such as; leakages, noise, broken handles and overall appalling design. The electric Alessi kettle was pricey but well worth the $$ I only wish I had bought this first. Not only is it beautiful but it's quiet, fast and sturdy. I guess you get what you pay for..."

This is handsome, European made, functional and unique kitchen appliance. I probably boil my kettle 20 times a day and am so glad to have found a non-made in China product that I expect to last me many years.
FYI - the bird "splash guard" is totally non-functional and the kettle works just fine without it in. How you're supposed to remove it when there's steam pouring out through it I have not yet figured out - probably just Euro-over-safety requirement.
