A classic.

Good looking kettle, pours great. 3 stars because handle is slightly loose and cannot be tightened, and after two uses, rust colored stains appeared around the joint where the base is attached to the kettle body. Not lime deposits. Removed once and they reappeared. Used on electric range, not gas, not highest heat setting.

Rusted in less than two months of using it, definitely going to file a complaint. Spare yourself a low quality item.

Beautifully designed kettle. Easy to use.

It's a handsome gooseneck kettle and it performs well. Unfortunately, it started developing rust on the inside after less than a week. Bodum (the manufacturer) was completely unresponsive to customer service inquiries. About a month later, the rust hasn't gotten much worse and the kettle continues to perform well, but the initial experience means I can't wholeheartedly recommend this product.
