Revere 4-Cup Stainless Steel Bottom Easy Fill Tea Kettle

Comment: I purchased this tea kettle as a gift and we are very unhappy with it. After just a few uses, it began to show signs of rust and corrosion around the bottom edge, so there must be a leak somewhere. The spout drips when pouring. I do like the off-set design of the opening for filling and cleaning, but it was hard for an older person to remove the lid (although I suppose that might get easier with more use.) If you have owned and used RevereWare products for many years (as I and the gift recipient have) you may find that this kettle does not nearly measure up to the quality of their older pots, pans, and kettles. It is not very well-made.

Comment: The whistle is hard to hear. Your AC fan is louder. Steam coming out around the fill cover heats the handle. It needs a longer pour spout. When you pour, steam from the pour spout hits your hand.

It pours great. No spill over or dripping.

Amazon "Product Features" says "Signature copper bottoms for quick heating". The bottom is stainless steel not copper.

Comment: Steam leaks out around the whistle spout cover instead of going through the hole in the top of the spout cover. Poor fit.

Comment: This is a nice sized tea kettle for brewing small amounts. It pours nicely, isn't too heavy and heats quickly. However, I bought one and in a few months, the spring to open the spout broke. I contacted Revere and they immediately sent a replacement. Excellent customer service and the replacement has been perfect.

Comment: Very poor design, hot steam comes out the trigger slot. This burns your finger when you try to open the spout, which must be opened to pour. If it wasn't so much trouble, I would return it to Amazon.
