## Description

This teakettle is part of the Calypso Basic Collection. There are a lot of benefits to using a teakettle to heat your beverage. First, using a enamel on steel teakettle will allow you to control the temperature of your water (vs. the microwave oven). For expert tea drinkers this is very import because the flavor of the tea is affected. Serving from a teakettle for either yourself or guests gives a nice presentation while keeping your remaining water warm. This 2.2 quart teakettle can heat any beverage you like; such as water, tea, cider, as well as others. The fold down handle allows for easy and quick filling or cleaning. The harmonic hum will alert you when your water is boiling (level of water will determine how fast water will heat up). The lid is made of a heat tempered glass which allows you to see the progress of your boiling water and adds a sophisticated look. You can use this on any kind of stovetop. Please read full directions before use

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beautiful Little Tea Kettle!
*by D***H on February 18, 2021*

We had bought this product last year (in yellow) and just loved it. It was well made, the perfect size for us, and performed wonderfully. Unfortunately, my husband accidentally dropped it on our ceramic tile floor and chipped it in several places. When we looked for a replacement, we were very happy to find it still being offered (although not in yellow anymore). This time, we purchased it in turquoise. It arrived today and seems to be of equal quality and craftsmanship to the former one.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect Kettle for the Vintage Style Kitchen!
*by G***G on April 25, 2012*

I read all of the reviews prior to purchasing this tea kettle and I could not be more pleased with it! It is a very classic style and the turquoise colour not only matches a lot of the Martha Stewart products but fits in perfectly with my 1940s style kitchen. The enamel is bright and heavy duty (it's been knocked off the stove several times by a boisterous puppy who is still learning not to counter surf & shows no chips or scratches from hitting the tile floor), the lid fits securely, and I love how the handle bends to the side for ease of filling (you can still hold the handle while it's sideways and it doesn't slip around!).It's the first thing people notice when they walk into my kitchen and it's as functional as it is attractive. For the price, you simply cannot beat it!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A gem of a non-whistling teapot
*by M***E on July 16, 2019*

It's hard to find a good non-whistling teapot and this one is a classic. I love the shape and the color is warm and cheerful. Great for those who don't need a giant teapot. The size is just right for boiling four cups of water or so and the water heats up rapidly. The most important thing to know about this teapot is that it needs to sit on a small diameter burner. If flames or heat extend beyond it's small diameter, the enamel finish will be damaged. With proper care it will last forever.
