The kettle itself is nice, but the handle is tensioned in place such that if the screw comes loose, it torques and chips the handle itself. A screw was loose on mine from the factory and my wife simply lifting the kettle normally caused a chunk to pop out. Instead of sending a simple replacement handle, Le Creuset denied the warranty claim. We will stop buying from them.
The stainless steel classic whistling kettle adds a touch of contemporary style to the stovetop with its lustrous polished finish and timeless silhouette, and makes an excellent gift. Useful for preparing French press coffee, oatmeal and much more in addition to tea, the generous base size heats water rapidly and a fixed single-tone whistle alerts when the water has reached a rolling boil. Durable stainless steel is non-reactive, resistant to stains, easy to clean, and compatible with induction cooktops.

Customer reviews
Tea Kettle looks great and worked fine but unfortunately we had to return it. Process of buying and returning was great. Le Creuset should be ashamed about the product quality and seriously consider changing quality assurance people and policies. This Stainless Steel Tea Kettle developed inside corrosion spots and top layer peeling spots (which would soon corrode as well ) in the area where spout is spot welded to kettle body in about month of normal use. We have used Le Creuset products before and i thought that i can buy their product with hi confidence - what happened? Our old Chantal Kettle was rust free after 15 years of use.
I wanted a nice whistling teapot. This does Not whistle ever!
Teapot
My parents and I have been searching for a new kettle for months. We bought this one. Sometimes, we had to pour carefully because hot water would splutter out the sides. Well today, we did nothing different but when I went to pour, hot water EXPLODED (literally) out of the kettle everywhere. I now have second degree burns on my hands. Our old kettle absolutely never did this. It has to be a defect with this kettle. Do not buy!!
This is a solid, beautiful looking kettle. It looks nice on the stovetop. Before buying, I spent days reading kettle reviews everywhere. I was hard-pressed to find any one kettle that had overwhelming positive reviews. This kettle had the highest customer ratings, so I bought the stainless version. It is durable like my last Le Creuset enamel tea kettle, except easier to take the lid on and off. Overall, I am really happy with this purchase.
This stainless steel whistling tea kettle is just terrific. It is very attractive, holds 1.7 quarts of water, and the water boils up fast. Very happy with my purchase and recommend highly!
I love the shine And easy to clean. to keep the water spots from forming I empty it every day after using it and when it gets water spots on the inside, I soak it with baking soda water, and it rinses right out
Great and economical
I wanted this very much because it is so attractive. Even my husband says so. But…the cap is difficult to take off and if it doesn't go on tightly enough the kettle won't whistle..
