Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Perfect for tea, coffee, instant soup, or hot chocolate the familiar pitch of this whistling teakettle calls attention to itself when water is boiling. Traditionally dome-shaped, the 2-1/2-quart 18/10 stainless-steel body carries a polished shine. Contouring to the hand, the U-shaped Phenolic handle resists heating for a comfortable grip. A circular spout cover, made of the same material, easily flips open to cease whistle and begin pouring. Interior access provided by a wide top opening simplifies cleaning. Kettle base features a flat surface to promote rapid heating. Dishwasher-safe but surface may dull over time due to harsh soaps; hand washing recommended for best results. Farberware’s quality assurance warranty guarantees product against manufacturer defects immediately after purchase.

Product Description

Made of finest quality 18/10 stainless steel, this elegant kettle will maintain its shine for years to come. It holds 2-1/2 quarts of water and whistles when water comes to a boil.

1.0 out of 5 stars No removable top!, October 20, 2004

I bought this item because it advertises a wide removable top for ease in cleaning. I specifically wanted a teakettle that had a wide top opening, as I make large pots of tea at once, and I wanted to be able to put the teabags directly into the kettle. There is no opening at all, other than the spout. The whole body of the teakettle is one piece. Definitely a false description either on the part of Farberware or Amazon. I am also used to Farberware items having an aluminum bottom for good heat conductivity, and the bottom of this is just thin stainless steel.

Good product. Light weight and made well. Only criticism is that there is no "trigger" to automatically open the cover to pour. This model requires cap to be pulled back to open.

Do you know how long it took me to find this replacement for the one I had? It does every thing a 2 1/2 qt kettle should do at half the price of anything else. I must have had the old one 20 years and until I boiled all the water out of it I would be using it today...Boy those can get hot!I also melted one of the cooktop switches when I set the kettle on it after I found it.Hopefully they will still be making these is another 20 or so years.
