I love it, but the lid is so tight it’s hard to get off to refill it.

I am a tea drinker so this kettle was an important purchase, I moved and needed a new kettle because my beloved kettle wouldn't work with my induction cooktop. If you need to hold a tea bag or strainer in place this kettle is not a good idea, I have been scalded many times in the past 6 months that I have had to use it. After it happened the first time I use caution but it still catches me off guard. I fill to the proper level but when you start pouring it sometimes it shoots out and it will get on the counter or anything else that's in the way, I keep tea kettles for a very long time and I am very unhappy with this purchase.

I really am satisficed with this tea kettle. Not only does it bring some sunshine into the kitchen because of its looks but it works very well and easy to clean, if necessary.

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 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..
