4.0 out of 5 stars Functions well, but design isn't my cup of tea, September 4, 2010

This review is from: KitchenAid Teakettle 2-Quart Gourmet Essentials Porcelain Enamel Kettle , Green Apple (Kitchen)

Length:: 0:34 Mins

DESIGN: My main concern for not rating this kettle a 5 star kettle is the lever that you must switch back in order to pour. I prefer to press a lever on the handle or a Pick Me Up type. I shouldn't criticize this because I knew of this before I made the purchase, but it just adds a step to boiling water that I'd rather avoid.

COLOR: The main reason I bought this kettle was because of the BEAUTIFUL color. The color is just AWESOME! It really does add a retro touch to the kitchen. It is simply a beautiful piece of art sitting on your stove-top.

If you'd like check out the short video, I disprove 2 myths (whistle isn't loud, handle is hot) that I've read by other reviewers, and shows off the kettle in action.

This review is from: KitchenAid Cook For the Cure Limited Edition 2-Quart Stainless-Steel Teakettle with Pink Silicone (Kitchen)

I bought this tea kettle to add to my collection of pink KitchenAid appliances, but it turned out to be a really great purchase. The tea kettle is pretty in stainless steel and has only a touch of pink on the silicone handle. It has a loud noticeable whistle that lets you know when your water is ready and is easy to use and handle. I've read the other reviews that state that the pot gets overly hot, but that only happens if you use a grill size that is too large for the kettle. If you read the directions before use, it specifically says to use a burner compatible with the size of the kettle, this easily solves that problem. The spout is large and the kettle is easy to fill, whether throught the lid or the spout. Again, this is a KitchenAid product and has great waranty coverage and excellent customer service. I highly recommend it to anyone who is interested.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great tea kettle with silicone handle - brushed steel version., July 16, 2006

I got my brushed steel Tea Kettle as a housewarming present, and I have not had any problems with it. It works great on both electric and gas stoves. The handle does get a little warm due to some heat transferance between the metal of the pot and the silicone, but I've never had to use any pot holders with it as it's never been uncomfortable. It pours smooth, is easy to use, and I like the fact that it has both a whistle that can be lifted up to pour and a removable lid so I can put tea bags directly inside the pot when it's finished boiling so I have a pot-o-tea. Easy to clean with that removable lid, too.
