 "Beautiful but painful" 2009-12-25
By K. Hsiang (SF Bay Area)
I've had my teakettle for 5+ years. It really sits on my stove for decorative purposes but about once a holiday season, I need to boil water for the coffee press. The whistle is pleasant. However, the handle gets incredibly hot even though it is well out of the way of the steam and the handle attachment point is well above the water fill line. I've burned my hand on it. My guest have burned their hand on it. My wife has burned her hand on it. Each time, people don't expect the handle to be hot but it's hot as an iron. I've got the burn marks on my palm to prove it. I write this review telling future buyers that if you are an occasional teakettle user, this thing will burn your hand. I also write this review to make sure that I don't forget how &$^@! hot this handle gets. Maybe I'll just give it away. Sigh.

 "harmonic accord" 2009-11-17

I've owned the large Chantal classic stainless teakettle for about 10 years and it's still looking and sounding great. Yes, it boils water just fine, and it also gently reminds me when the pot is hot. For me, the low harmonica note is much more pleasing than a shrill whistle--particularly because it's audible throughout my open-space house. My teakettle has moved from state to state with no dents or dings, unlike the cheaper brands I've owned, whose colored coating has chipped or plastic parts broken. The bottom is still perfectly flat and smooth--I even used it on a flat cooktop with no problem (the manufacturer says it's suitable for induction cooktops). As advertised, the wide removable lid makes it easy to clean the interior, although I haven't noticed any deposits that warrant scrubbing. I was told by the store (Williams Sonoma) to hand-wash it, a possible drawback; fortunately a soapy sponge does the trick, because it's a target for spills and splatters on my crowded range. This was my first splurge on cookware for myself, and my guilty qualms and sweaty palms were well worth it: apart from its enduring utility, this teakettle is the one pot in my kitchen that's on "display," front and center, day after day. I'm not trendy, and fortunately, this 25-year-old design isn't either. It may not be the prettiest teakettle, but to me, its enduring form and function strike just the right balance.

 "The best" 2009-06-11
By grandma maggie (San Mateo,CA)
Have never had a better tea kettle.Ever. Highly recommend it, worth the money. Whistle is loud and easy to hear throughout the house. Little mitt for handle makes pouring the hot water a breeze. The best!

This teakettle looks so good in a stainless steel kitchen, I am reluctant to even use it.

I bought this high end kettle thinking I would get a reliable tea kettle. Although it is beautiful, the handle gets extremely hot and requires a pot holder to pour the water. The tea kettle gets stains from my gas burner and this requires extra maintenance. Lastly and most disappointingly was that the kettle leaked from the pour spout only 1 year after I purchased it. For the price I paid, I thought I could get at least 7 years out of it. I would not recommend purchasing this kettle. I'd look for something more reliable for a more affordable price.
