Stainless Steel Whistling Induction Teakettle, 1.9-Quart
Product details
Web ID: 18158309Awful smell to tea kettle
I purchased this tea kettle because I was looking for a non-toxic stainless steel tea kettle for my morning tea. The tea kettle arrived and I love the design and features, however, it has an awful chemical smell on the inside that remained even after hand washing it multiple times. I'm so disappointed because I threw the box away and couldn't return it, now I'm stuck with a tea kettle I refuse to use due to the awful smell.

Very nice kettle for the price
I like this kettle. It boils fast and makes enough noise to hear from upstairs. I was hoping it was fully clad, and it looked that way in the photos, hence the four stars instead of five. It still has a nice heft and seems durable.

Smells but beautiful
Still trying to get the manufacturing smell out, lots of washing, boiling with vinegar, a trip through the dishwasher and it’s slowly dissipating. I kept it because 1. I’m hopeful that I will remove the scent, 2. it’s strictly metal so no chipping paint down the road, and 3. it’s a beautifully designed, heavy kettle that should last my lifetime.

Came slightly dirty as if previously returned
Was excited for this due to the reviews but when it came it looked slightly dirty and some of the packaging parts weren’t in their proper place (e.g., “Remove before use” tab was at the bottom of unsealed bag it was in), as if previously returned. Especially poor customer experience as I paid full price for this.

Great product!
This is a very well-made tea kettle. The kettle alone is a great design, stylish, modern kettle. Super sturdy! I love the sound of the kettle when the water is ready. I would highly recommend this kettle.

Built like a truck
It's not surprising that KitchenAid products are all over my kitchen. I have a KitchenAid mixer, which is my workhorse, KitchenAid pots and pans, and various utensils and other appliances. I love KitchenAid products because they are always smartly designed and last forever. So when it was time for a new teakettle, I found this one from KitchenAid. First, it is a lovely design. It's retro and futuristic. The coolest part is the loud whistle you hear when the water is boiling. It's just like the whistle your coach would use—very loud. The lid is odd though. It isn't intuitive how to close it and open it. I figured it out. You have to firmly push it down on the large stopper button to close it. To open it, you have to grasp it firmly and pull it open. Countering all of that pushing and tugging is the weight of the kettle itself. It is not light. It is very heavy. In fact, it is very surprisingly heavy when filled with water, so it is not for your dainty grandmother. I call it my tea truck, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but it might be too heavy for some folks. That's the only reason why I rate this at 4 stars instead of 5 for value. Overall, if you want a very high-quality KitchenAid product, you can't go wrong, and you'll get another amazing KitchenAid item that will be reliable forever and make your kitchen look great too.

I LOVE this Teakettle!!!!
I am a daily tea drinker and have been for years. I have never used a kettle until this one, and I am in love! It has a great design and holds quite a bit of tea! I throw a few tea bags in, and the whistle lets me know when the water is boiling and my tea is done! I will never go back to making cup-by-cup in the microwave ever again! I would highly recommend!!!!
