Whistling Tea Kettle Stovetop - Food Grade Stainless Steel Teapot for Stove Top with Ergonomic Handle for Gas, Induction, Electric Stovetops 2.3 Quart

This is an absolutely beautiful tea kettle. It's also solid and extremely well made. I particularly like that they designed the cover so that it won't fall out as you pour. It has a nice snug fit. So many tea kettles have covers that fall out easily, increasing the risk of scalding with hot steam. I expect this tea kettle will last me a lifetime and might even pass on to my kids. Works perfectly on our new induction cooktop too.

Beautiful and heats quickly. Also, the water stays hot for refills for longer than I expected. Great whistle!

I'm very happy with this kettle. It's of high quality, it looks good, it's sturdy, and it boils water quickly. The handle tends to get hot, so I use a small potholder.

Excellent kettle, but a bit on the expensive side. It is well made from high-quality stainless-steel material and heats water very quickly. The kettle itself looks great and comes with a nice polished finished. The whistle is loud enough to hear, and it is not too irritating of sound. As for the handle not getting hot like we have read in other reviews, it sure not the case with ours – the handle gets hot, and we must use a silicon pad to prevent getting burned (4 stars because of this). Still, we are satisfied with the performance of this item as of the date of this review.

We had an electric kettle that took up space on our counter and didn’t heat nearly as quickly as we wanted. This kettle is sturdy, well-made, and not too heavy. Love the foldable handle and big opening for cleaning. It heats water very quickly on the induction stovetop. The whistle gets louder (really loud!) based on a higher volume of water, a little quieter with a small volume.

Love, Love, Love this kettle!! Boils water super fassst! Handle is not hot - without potholder! Cleans up nicely with soapy sponge & water!

After owning a couple of different units and countless hours of reading reviews, we've had this kettle for a couple of months of intense use and a big natural gas flame and it's perfect. 100% bright stainless. No sign of corrosion anywhere inside or out. No weird noises while heatiing. Pours perfectly without leaking. Easy lid to remove while hot even without tilting the handle - which it can do. Whistle is easy to flip on and off even when hot - if you flip it fast. The handle is all stainless as well and whereas it does heat up, it's not the nuclear heat of a thousand suns that other reviews mention. Just a thin hot pad or sweat shirt sleeve pulled down will suffice. But even the supposedly insulated handles need a pad if the kettle is at its hottest on a big gas burner.Ergonomically it functions well, the hand position being natural as you pour. And the stiffening rings around the sides of the unit help to guage the amount of water you've filled.If you've been driven almost crazy by reviews, to the point of considering a $2-300 kettle, look no further. this one does it all perfectly AND it looks great. It's required no maintenance to keep it clean.PS. After our last kettle dyed, we tried the switch to electric. This was really a silly experiment, requiring even more research almost fruitlessly. Result was in discovering that almost all electric kettles have inner parts of plastic. Most have many other problems. The only great kettle we found was the legendary Stagg EKG at $160. This was great, but delivered a few ozs of water less than my pour-over with the Clever unit required. Hard as it was to tear ourselves from the copious amouts of functional and aesthetic features, it had to go. That brings us to the Gipfel - by no means a jip!

The company Gipfel is registered in Russia, it’s not a German company. Very lightweight and there is a ridge on the bottom between the outer edge and the tri-ply base. There’s no indication on kettle or box where it’s made. Took more than 10 mins to reach a rolling boil (and whistle) on induction stove. Doesn’t save on electricity over an electric kettle and unsure about quality, so returned it.
