Negative Positive
Title: Disappointed a year later
Review: Unfortunately, I hoped against hope that maybe some of these reviewers were mis-treating their teakettles and mine would be fine. I got this for my wife for Christmas, and it only took a year for the whistle to literally rust apart and break. The kettle still works fine, but the pleasing whistle is gone. I expect a lot more from a product at this price point. My Oxo kettle this replaced gave years of good service and I only retired it because I wanted something that looked nicer than the Oxo. Big mistake. There is also visible corrosion on the hinge for the tea kettle. We baby this thing, so there really is no excuse for it wearing so horribly. A tea kettle should be able to withstand water and heat over repeated exposures. That's its job. Unfortunately, this one isn't up to the task.
