No stovetop is complete without a charming teakettle, and this Farberware Classic Tiburon makes a handsome as well as useful fixture. Created from corrosion-resistant, high-quality stainless steel, the kettle features an attractive bell shape with a flared bottom for efficient burner coverage and faster heating. It whistles clearly when water boils, and the lever-controlled spout locks open with a simple flip for easy pouring and filling. The kettle also fills through the tidy top lid. Farberware uses a stay-cool synthetic to make the piece's handles, arcing the top one high for finger clearance. One design element to note here--lifting and spout-flipping are possible to perform with one hand (flip down the lever with your thumb and pick up the pot) though not as simple as the trigger-style spouts on some kettles. Polished to a mirror-finish, this kettle keeps its shine with a little bit of standard maintenance. Measuring 8-1/2 inches in diameter, it stands 9 inches high. --Emily Bedard

Comment: Its nice enough to look at, but the handle does not feel good in your hands, the flip isn't smooth, and worst of all the whistle is a bit limp. So all and all its just OK.

Comment: On my first use the whistling devise and spring on the spout popped out and couldn't be put back in to stay. Very disapointed as I have always loved Farberware products purchased throughout the years until this item.

Summary: Broken Kettle Whistle 2010-02-05
Comment: I bought this item as a gift for my wife. After about one month of use, the kettle whistle will no longer close. From reading other reviews on Amazon, this seems to be a common problem. I would not at all recommend this kettle to anyone...well...I'd recommend it to people I hate.

Summary: Rusty Insides 2010-02-01
Comment: I bought this a little over six months ago and tried to not leave water in it, BUT inevitably, I ended up letting a little water sit in the kettle. Now, there are little rust spots all over the inside of the kettle. The water doesn't taste rusty yet, but I was hoping that because this teakettle was stainless steel, that it wouldn't rust. After reading more about 18/10 stainless, I guess it's not impervious to rust, so sadly, this kettle can rust.
