1.0 out of 5 stars Ouch! Steam, Hot!!, September 22, 2005

The prior reviews are on target. Just adding emphasis here.

This product is a booby-trap.

You will need an oven mitt to pour your tea water. Otherwise you will be scalded with the steam. Period.

Trust me, the beauty of this product drops precipitously with each use.

Save yourself!!

3.0 out of 5 stars Copco Torino looks great but doesn't deliver, March 27, 2005

Not wanting an ordinary teakettle, we were drawn to the Copco Torino because of the graceful simplicity of its visual design. For that, I think it deserves an award. But in everday use we've found the Torino disappointing. Because the "spout" is actually a flange at the top of the kettle, you have to tip it almost upside down to get all the water out. As you do this, steam rises from the opening and makes your hand uncomfortably warm, even with the removable steam guard placed in the opening. If you grasp the handle lower to compensate for this, your palm contacts the metal heat guard at the bottom of the handle. Ouch! Also, the wide flange doesn't provide a well-focused stream of water. We'll be returning this one. Our quest for the perfect kettle goes on....

The appearance of this tea kettle is very attractive - however due to the design you must be very careful when pouring boiling water to prevent a steam burn. Also, it is virtually impossible to completely empty all of the water from the tea kettle - you have to wait until the water cools before you turn it completely upside down to extract all water before storing. I would not even attempt to remove all of the water while it was still hot.
