Wife loves it. Lightweight and nice to look at.
My daughter still managed to break it, but she's a bull in a china shop, so I don't blame the pot. I bought another one to replace it. That's how much we like it. I don't recommend it for electric coil stovetop, but they say it will work with the flimsy adapter thingy, which is probably very easy to lose. I have a glass cooktop, and this works very nicely. If you are using gas, keep the flame low as the plastic handle on this pot is very close to the burner. The whistle is a little weird, but it works. The only downside to me, is that you have to remove the lid to pour. Small price to pay, and it actually is useful for crimping tea bag strings, so good trade. :-)Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Looks great
I really like the look of this kettle BUT cannot believe the whistle top/lid melted!! I went to lift the lid off and burned my finger and thumb as the hook part of the lid had partially melt due to the heat. Call me crazy but when making a product that is exposed to high heat you want to have parts that are heat proof! And I did not leave this kettle boiling on the stove top for an extended time period. BUT, even if I did.....my expectation would be that the plastic lid wouldn't melt. The handle is made out of the same material. Dangerous..Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Takes 17 minutes to boil full pot of water
I was initially disappointed in this pot because you are not supposed to use high temp with it on an electric range. This means water takes more time to boil. But I use medium-high heat (8 out of 10) with the little metal wire thing under the pot and it takes about 17 minutes to boil a full 12 cups of water. I love glass for its lack of toxicity. Very pretty when it boils, too! This is the largest glass water boiling kettle I've found at 12 cups. The handle gets rather warm after heating for 17 minutes, but it's still okay to pick up with my bare hand.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Functional simplicity
I really like this kettle. The clear glass allows you to see the water getting hot as you may not need it to be at a full boil. And once the water has reached temperature, the whistle is loud. Easy to fill as the plastic/whistling top pops off without struggle and the cup capacity markers are easy to see/ read. And using a dish brush makes for an easy job of cleaning it. I've had quite a few whistling kettles that ran the gamut between inexpensive to outlandish in price, and I always had issues with rusting-particularly in the spout area-which can affect the taste and safety of the water. But with this Medelco, the only metal is on the outside, so no problems with rust getting into the water you're drinking. This is the perfect whistling kettle for me and a great value too.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Great Whistling Kettle
I use this to make Iced tea. There is no having to pour boiling hot water into another vessel (risking burning yourself) to make the tea. I simply put 2 family-size teabags straight into the boiling water and do not disturb them for 30 minutes. Take them out 1 at a time and briefly let each one drain against side of top. DO NOT SQUEEZE OR MASH THEM! You mix and equal amount of ice cold water to it when it cools of. Sweeten each glass to taste and it will be the best iced tea you ever had. LOVE this kettle!Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Lightweight, easy use, and affordable
This glass tea pot or kettle is a great item. It boils quickly, is easy to handle, is just the right size and weight for pouring, and it is made of glass so it cleans easily. The whistle is great too.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Glass kicks azz....
So cool!! See the water bubbles reminds me of chemistry class. Can resist heat well. Tea tastes better due to lack of metal aftertaste in water. You can leave water in glass and place in fridge if brewing ice tea. Do not keep lid on during pouring, it will melt depending on temperature. Sit hot kettle on mat to prevent damage to non heat resistant countertops.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

great kettle
we bought these to avoid the power consumption of electric kettles. they work very well on our gas burners and because they are clear glass we can easily see how much water is in them and how clean the water is. we use them daily. but they are slow compared to electric kettles. the whistle works but is not loud, which is good i think.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Boils fast, Large pot, Easy to Clean.
I have a gas stove and this works great on it. With the cheap metal tea pots from China you get now you always end up with a metallic taste from the cheap metals used in it, not to mention the idea that the Chinese will poison their own babies to save a buck, there is no telling what they use in the stuff they export. Glass is reassuring. Great product.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

Clean
I have electric range (without coils) and this kettle works as advertised. I like that it's made of glass so I can see what's inside and don't have to worry about toxins from plastic, stainless, etc. I think it does take a bit longer to boil water since I don't put it on high heat.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
