Styled after the iconic Le Creuset demi kettle, the stainless steel kettle adds a touch of contemporary style to the stovetop with its lustrous finish and timeless silhouette, making it an excellent gift. Useful for preparing French press coffee, oatmeal, and much more in addition to tea, durable stainless steel heats water rapidly, and a fixed single-tone whistle alerts when the water has reached a rolling boil. Stainless steel is non-reactive, resistant to stains, easy to clean, and compatible with induction cooktops.
