Summary: Sturdy, Generous-Sized and Handsome 2009-05-22
Comment: This kettle is as good as every other Le Creuset product I've ever owned. It is handsome with a simple design and a slightly ombred beige-to-ivory enamel exterior. The kettle itself is large so you can fill it with enough water to make a big pot of tea or a full container of coffee (I use it to boil water for a Chemex coffee maker) without it sputtering and boiling over. The handle doesn't get too hot to touch and the whistle gets your attention without giving you a headache. In other words, this is a splendid teakettle and I'm delighted to have it, especially since it replaced a smaller and cheaper one by Copco that nearly disintegrated in less than 2 months. Like every other Le Creuset product I've owned, this teakettle is sturdy, the enamel exterior is a snap to clean, and I forecast that it will last for years.

Summary: No spill-free pour with this LeCreuset 2009-04-10
Comment: Product shipped promptly and arrived in good condition. Teapot looks nice on the stove..... unfortunately I can't seem to get a spill-free pour from it after it has boiled. You have to be careful not to fill too much water before heating or it will build up pressure and spurt hot water while you pour...

Summary: le creuset teapot in dijon 2009-03-21
Comment: Love the color. Looks nice on the stove. So far seems to be working well.Some concerns about the reviews I've read re. rusting inside. It's not realistic to leave it empty on the stove...would be concerned about scorching if the burner was accidentally left on. In any case, at this point I am very happy w/the product.
