Product Review

As part of Le Creuset's Enamel-on-Steel collection, the superiorly crafted kettle features heavy-gauge steel construction for fast heating and even heat distribution, along with a hard, glossy enamel glaze for both durability and eye-catching beauty on the stovetop. The kettle's heat-resistant, ergonomic handle locks into place for easy lifting and pouring, ensures a secure grip, and keeps hands a safe distance from the steam. The loop-style handle comes securely attached to the kettle with stainless-steel brackets for added peace of mind. To refill the kettle, simply remove its round-shaped lid by pulling up on the stay-cool lid knob. The kettle can be safely used on all heat sources, including induction, and should be hand washed only with hot soapy water and dried thoroughly.

This review is from: Le Creuset Enameled Steel 1-1/4-Quart Demi Tea Kettle, Fennel (Kitchen)
Read many mixed reviews on this product, but decided to purchase anyway. My wife loves it. It does what it's supposed to do, boil water quickly. The whistle works just like every other tea kettle we've owned. Price is right, just buy it.

I almost gave 3 STARS, but since this is a water kettle (and its basic function is to pour) It deserves 2=STARS doe such a serious flaw..

AND I FIGURED OUT WHY:
When you pour slow the large spout ends up straight and horizontal, which increases the tendency for the water to "wrap" around and dribbl down to the bottom of the pot (they use this trick on rain gutters to collect the water and sheds the pine needles behind)..

And I see the same complaint for other Le Creuset teapots..
I have the white ZEN..
Too bad because this is obviously a deal killer..

I WILL BE RETURNING THE ZEN WATER POT..
As another reviewer mentioned, it dribbles water everywhere (a lot of water).. You would think they would do a test pour before manufacturing a million of these.. I was barely able to pour onto a large...Read more
