Copco Gismo Teakettle - Stainless Steel

Comment: I received this teakettle as a gift, and unfortunately, was very disappointed in the quality. Buyers should be aware of the small size --this teakettle only holds 5 cups of water --while this is a nice size for quickly boiling water for a couple of cups of tea, that's about where it's usefulness ends. The small size also causes problems when attempting to clean/dry out the teakettle --it is impossible to get more than 2 fingers inside, and therefore, if you want to allow the inside to dry, you must turn the teakettle upside down. However, because of the shape, no matter what you do -turning, rotating, leaning it to the left, then to the right, it is impossible to ever completely dry the inside. After the first use, the inside of this teakettle began to flake and cause black "floaties" so to speak in the water -apparently, the copper bottom doesn't enjoy being wet all the time - and since you cannot dry it, you're pretty much at a loss. I wanted to like this teakettle, but I'm not able to recommend it to anyone.
