Got one in red which matches our Oster toaster perfectly. It heats quickly and the whistle is pretty darn loud. You can hear it quietly starting to go at early boil and if you forget and leave the room, you'll certainly know when it's going full steam! No issues with rust despite occasionally leaving filtered water inside. Easy to clean and pour from. We've had ours with moderate use over 5 years and it's still working well and looking good.
