Beka Cookware Claudine Water Kettle 6-1/4 Quart

 (6 customer reviews)

I'm an avid ice tea drinker and I agree with previous reviews that the 6 1/4 quart size is more than adequate. I didn't realize how big it was until I received it. The one size smaller would have been fine, but this one will do just as fine. I've used it several times now to brew jasmine green tea and I have no complaints on its functionality. I usually keep tea in it over a few days and there is no sign of rust. My previous teapot started showing signs of rust at about this point with tea sitting in the kettle so I am pleased with the Beka. It does take a while to boil due to the larger volume, but brewing good tea takes time.

A couple of notes to consider... The metal is not as thick as I thought that it would be at this price point, but there's issue at this point. Secondly, the kettle had a small ding near the bottom. It's not very noticeable and probably more related to quality control than anything else. The original packaging doesn't seem very sturdy...Read more

This is exactly what I wanted! I have a Glenwood cook stove and this kettle is perfect! It pours driplessly and the handle stays upright.

I bought this as a gift for my tea-loving friends, and it is, by far, the largest tea kettle I have ever seen. Could easily serve a large crowd and very well constructed- metal is thick and not easy to ding or dent.
