I love my tea kettle! The whistle is loud enough to hear, but not obnoxious and the raised bottom keeps it from scorching

This is made the way all things should be made and used to be. It is a nice teakettle made of quality materials and should last a lifetime or two.
 A Great Tea Kettle... February 26, 2009

I drink a cup or more of tea every day, and wanted a nice tea kettle to replace my wife's which has a metal handle that can literally blister your hand if you forget to grab it with a thick towel. The gas-only simplex is a beautiful tea kettle, well made and nice to look at. After using it for a while, the only drawback I can think of is that it takes a little longer to boil water than your average kettle. The instructions say to only use low heat, and on my stove low is very low and water doesn't boil for over 30 mins! I've since been using low-medium heat, and have gotten the boiling time to 14-16 minutes. Much better than 30+ but still 5 minutes more than our old kettle.
All in all I really like this kettle and the extra 5 minutes it takes to boil water really makes no difference to me since the appearance and design is far superior to our old one. I don't think you'll be disappointed with this kettle.

A classic! Well made. You'll see it in some films in the background (Steel Magnolias, etc).
The beauty of heating water in copper is that the copper conducts heat very efficiently. To get this to boil, we put it on a very low setting on the gas range. A totally full kettle heats up in the usual time-perhaps faster-at a very low setting. You don't want to heat this on high as A. It wastes energy. B. It is not necessary. C. Will probably diminish the life span of the kettle. SAVE ENERGY & SAVE MONEY ON YOUR GAS BILL!
It cleans up beautifully with a quality copper cleaner. Will look beautiful for years to come.
This kettle is well worth it. Save up for it-buy one once & never again!
Update: Three years later, used daily, still looks beautiful. Whistle works well. Cleans nicely with copper cleaner. Does not scratch easily.

Serves both to look good sitting on our stove all day and heats water well. Perfect size for our six burner oven and has a classic Copper English Tea Kettle look. Made for gas stoves so it heats faster. It was expensive but am pleased with the purchase.
