Teatime for Lumberjacks! This kettle is beautiful. It is absolutely an industrial pick, though. If you want tea and an upper body workout, this is your kettle. When I pour for cocoa and tea, I can feel the muscles across my shoulders getting involved. I will keep this forever and die strong.
Not Very Functional I bought this only for the claim (by many on the web) that it was the least “toxic” teakettle (in terms of leaching heavy metals, etc into the water) available besides glass, which I avoided due to its breakablity. Since I cannot accurately evaluate its non toxic properties, my review is strictly on usability, as compared to a standard stainless kettle. I could have given it a 2 rating, because it is ridiculously small, the handles get hot, and the heating surface is 3.75″ in…
Unbelievable color Yes, this is expensive for a tea kettle, but the old adage, you get what you pay for applies. The basil green is darker than the online image but delightfully rich in depth, I’d describe it as deep forest green. The most important thing, when you pour the water out, no splashing to burn you (my previous kettle). It’s not evident from the picture, but the handle separates in two, allowing the lid to come off. Love the design and feel so much I’m leaving it out on my stove.
