Amazon.com Review

You won't let the water run dry when you hear the whistle of this tea kettle. Le Creuset constructs the traditional shape out of lightweight, sturdy steel and coats it with tough enamel. A shiny stainless-steel rim helps protect the edge from chipping and facilitates the lid positioning. The high handle can be locked in an upright position to keep your hand away from the heat, and a lever on the whistling device flips the spout open for pouring. Low and broad, the base allows maximum surface contact for faster boiling. Choose from many bright, modern colors to match or harmonize with your kitchen and other Le Creuset cookware. --Ann Bieri

The whistler was no longer on ours--this seems to be a common problem. However, we were able to buy a replacement Bird Shaped Whistle that works great.

I did note that though the inside is coated in an enamel that also seems durable and good, there are two places where it is showing a tiny amount...Read more
