Chantal Pro Design Stainless Steel 3.25 Quart Teakettle

We have seen and tried many teakettles. This one hits every note, including its harmonica whistle. Yes, the whistle can become loud and shrill. But you'll never over-boil this kettle. The whistle changes sounds as the boiling increases. To hear the harmonica sound you need a huge boil. And yes, it eventually sounds like a train whistle. If you are older and your hearing is not so good, there is no fear of missing this sound! We love tea and we love this teakettle. The design is beautiful. The brushed stainless steel is perfect for the design. It heats up quickly, is a pleasure to see on the stove, and you'll never worry that it won't fill your pot with hot water.

It says to use filtered water or explains how you can eliminate the problem by boiling water and vinegar together from time to time. If that fails,...Read more

I waited through the Christmas season to get this kettle- and I'm SOOO glad I did. It's huge, it's handsome, the whistle is a mellow harmonic tone, it's well balanced, and the handle won't burn you - unless you continue to heat several kettles of water successively. So mostly, that doesn't happen. I drink tea all day long and using this kettle is a treat! If you are willing to spend the money, you will be pleased!

This kettle ROCKS! It has a HUGE capacity, doesn't look dirty because of its brushed finished, and the whistle....so cool! The handle is great, you don't get burned when you lift whistle to pour. I'm very happy with this purchase.
