Creative Home Satin Splendor Metallic 2.8 Quart whistling Tea Kettle, Blue

Comment: Love the color and the sturdiness of the kettle. Whistle is just loud enough. Hope it lasts for years.

Comment: The material is a little thinner than what I expected. The whistle is hardly audible - which is not a problem for me at all.
The color etc is extremely accurate. It is exactly how it looks in the picture. I got a bronze one, and I think it looks great in my kitchen and brings in a splash of color. It however is not very sturdy, so if you plan to buy it for using it a lot, it might not be the best option.

Comment: I've had it almost three months, and it serves the purpose, except for a couple of minor annoyances:

It's too easy to fill beyond the point where the water sprays out when it boils. I end up with water all over the stovetop.

Also, be careful when opening the top--it can flip scalding water up onto your hand.

Otherwise, it's been great so far.

Comment: I got this beautiful kettle for Christmas in the Cranberry color and it is PERFECT! The whistle slowly builds, so I have time to get to it before it gets too loud. It's a nice size -- not too big, not too small. The handle is perfect with the mechanism for opening/closing the spout in the perfect spot. But the color...gorgeous! Really deep and beautiful. This kettle rocks!

Comment: I've been happy with my purchase of this teapot. The cranberry color is beautiful, as many other reviewers have remarked. My teapot whistles loudly, but it isn't a sharp whistle. No worries - you'll still hear it if you're away from the kitchen. One feature I really like is the button on the handle that flips up the whistler on the pour spout! It's a really great feature!

One small complaint is that the teapot instructions say to use it on MEDIUM heat. This means that you'll be waiting a little longer for water to boil. I've personally used the teapot on medium-high (I'm too worried I'll ruin the teapot by boiling water at high heat) and haven't had any problems.

Nonetheless, it fits the bill of a teapot. It does the job and looks good doing it.
