Title: Don't be fooled by it's look...this kettle has serious design flaws
Product review: After looking at 20 or so kettles, I decided on the Bodum Osiris Stovetop Teakettle for it's unique design. Here were my problems the first week in using it:1. Handle is extremely hot - a mitt is required.2. Hinges on handle are extremely dangerous - while pouring, the kettle may swing from side-to-side - not good when you are pouring boiling hot water.3. Due to the open-spout design, it takes slightly longer for the water to come to a boil.4. The handle in general was designed poorly - once the water gets hot, it contracts and falls to a side, thus literally melting the handle since it is not heat proof. Mine melted on both sides the first week.I am a fan of many Bodum products...just not this one. Bodum should consider redesigning it for consumer safety.
