Johnson Brothers Friendly Village 2-3/4-Quart Enamel-on-Steel Whistling Tea Kettle

We bought this tea kettle to match our Friendly Village dish pattern. We especially wanted a whistling tea kettle. Well, it did not whistle. We filled it with water and went about our household business. We were sitting in the next room when we smelled something burning. We rush back to the kitchen. The water had evaporated, the kettle never whistled. Its bottom melted and it ruined the stove heating coil and drip collar. DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT.

This tea kettle would be and outstanding buy if the handle didn't swivel, the whistle wasn't so loud.(the sound could wake the dead), it sounds almost like a ship's whistle. Lastly the internal finish was not up to industry standards. It was a little on the rough side, I nix my finger on the inside cover when I was hand washing it.
