It takes a long time to boil and the design seems a bit crazy as you need oven gloves to take off the whistle to pour out the water. Minor things though and to be honest they might be the same on all whistling stove top kettles, this is my first one so I'm not sure.
I have had to get a replacement already as the gas flame scorched the paint on the kettle, which even though this is my first one I'm sure isn't meant to happen.
The replacement was really easy to sort out though, Wayfair service was excellent, I'm just scared to have had fame up too high now so it takes ages to boil.
Overall though it does the job and it looks great in the kitchen.
