Title: Trigger is built to break and not replacable
Product review: This is a great product. Its a good design that functions very well. Our family have had many Revere teakettles of this design over the past four decades.---BUT---This latest version of the product is built with a serious (deliberate?) design flaw. The pull trigger that opens the spout is made of thin plastic and is the weakest part of the kettle. When is breaks (and it will), you cannot buy a replacement part. Crazy glue doesnt work for some reason - tried it. Your only option is to chuck the entire kettle and buy a new one.Aside from the cost, I personally have a problem with the waste created by this kind of planned obsolesence - trashing a perfectly good teakettle for want of a 25 cent part. When a manufacturer does not provide a facility for ordering replacement parts, its pretty clear that they are not making products for the long haul.I wont buy another Revere ware product.
