Calypso Basics 2.2-Quart Enamel-on-Steel Whistling Teakettle with Glass Lid, Lemon

Comment: If your're looking for a pretty decoration for your stovetop this could be the tea kettle for you. It's very cute and the lemon color is nice and cheery.

But, as other reviewers have said it doesn't whistle. Also, it's very difficult to get the lid to fit the top of the kettle. You have to really fiddle with it. Also, the instructions tell you to use a potholder to hold the lid on as you pour out the boiling water and flip up the cover on the spout.

My old Revereware tea kettle wasn't much to look at, but at least it whistled for 10 years and could be used with one hand and no potholder.

Comment: This is such a cute kettle! I love it! The noise it makes is definitely different and not as loud as some. You probably wouldn't be able to hear it from across the house. But having used it, I actually prefer it to the typical sound kettles make. Great buy!

Comment: well the whistle works fine but the spout does not have a trigger to open it. You have to do it manually when it's hot or the water does not pour out well. Also a big chip knocked of the finish the first month we had it. The best thing about it is the color (blue) and how it looks. But I need a pot that boils water safely and doesn't chip, not just looks pretty. Used on a gas stove the finsih is hard to clean.

Comment: This is such a pretty teapot; however, like the other reviews, I found the lack of whistle an issue. It does have a very low hum, which is kind of refreshing. Unfortunately, it doesn't always work. I drink a lot of tea and was trying to avoid burning my house down because I forgot the pot was on the stove. I wanted a pot that would really get my attention. This didn't!

The pot itself is really attractive; mine is the bright red! It is heavy and well put together. I am so disappointed about the whistle, but do intend to keep using it.

Comment: I love this tea pot! It is so precious. I love the color, I love the style and I love material. From reading other reviews, I have made sure to not leave water in mine, so I have had zero problems with rust. It whistles, but not obnoxiously if that's what you're looking for. There's really not much more to say about it. I think it is a wonderful product and am really happy with this purchase.
