Excellence appliance
on July 25, 2022

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I get great pleasure out of the color and design of this kettle. It is ergonomically designed with the ease of lifting, adding water and pouring hot water. I use it for tea thus far which brews best with fresh water.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Stylish and effective Water Kettle

I purchased this kettle years ago after seeing similar ones on a trip to Ireland. I bought this one because it is colorful, stylish, and fits into the decor of my kitchen. It has performed flawlessly now for the past 7 years.

Smells of Mildew

I love the look of this teapot. However, it smells mildewy. It’s too late to return it.

Maryann uses this kettle to heat water for her tea. It heats water much faster than her previous one (I can’t recall the model number, but it was a much taller one.)
