This red kettle is the nicest KitchenAid item I have ever bought.  I also have the red food processor. (I wish there was a matching coffee pot.) It’s actually prettier in person than the picture. Very substantial. Also, the little ding it makes when the water is ready is not annoying like a whistling tea kettle. It heats quickly to whatever temperature you want and you don’t have to worry about forgetting to turn it off. It’s a perfect item.
