This review is from: Primula 3-Quart Tea Kettle with Soft Grip Silicone Handle, Stainless Steel (Kitchen) I searched high and low for a well designed yet reasonable tea kettle. My last one was great until I let it burn dry for about half an hour, oops. But this one looked really promising. A big enough opening so a man can get his hand in there to wash the kettle and a whistle. A must for me since I often go back to work while the water is heating. All looked good until I tried it out for the first few times. In all cases the lid did not fit tightly enough to cause the whistle to blow when the water was boiling.

This review is from: Primula 3-Quart Tea Kettle with Soft Grip Silicone Handle, Stainless Steel (Kitchen) This item is border line fraudulent. The "stainless" steel corroded around the lid and the top of the kettle in 30 days. The "insulated" handle keeps cool only if the kettle is half full or less, and the insulated tab on the spout cover lever slides off as you use it.

This review is from: Primula 3-Quart Tea Kettle with Soft Grip Silicone Handle, Stainless Steel (Kitchen) I love this kettle. It is very sturdy and a good size. The handle doesn't get hot like some others do which is a nice plus. It is easy to clean and the stainless steel looks nice and goes with any kitchen decor. I am very happy with this purchase. It is well made and worth the price which I think was a bargain. I highly recommend this kettle. |
