I bought this kettle a month ago and I love the retro design. I needed something to match my kitchen appliances, which are all in a variety of shades of this colour or seafoam, and this kettle didn't disappoint! Something I bought for looks quickly turned into something I love for function. The best part about the kettle is the spout - as a ceramic artist I know how hard it is to make a functional spout that pours well without dripping and spewing all over the place. The design of the handle makes it easy to pour, and because of the tight-fitting lid and the lightweight body, the entire contents of the kettle can be poured out without the lid falling off or your arms getting tired. Just be careful if you want to boil another kettle right away - it needs a few minutes for the steam to clear before you open that lid and pour more water in. But don't worry, this kettle holds plenty of water for that perfect pot of tea! (This review was collected as part of a promotion.)
