Review by Loane S. on 8 July 2017

After 5 years of good and happy use, the kettle has started to rust inside. I Googled it and, guess what? This is a known problem. Le Creuset's website even says not to leave water in the kettle. Tell me, what kind of kettle is that? The more I gain experience in the kitchen, the more I come back to stainless steel - easy to clean, good in the dishwasher, looks beautiful, and doesn't stain or rust. Read more

Review by Barbara B. on 24 September 2013

This is an attractive looking kettle which holds 2.1 litres of water. The water mark comes approximately half way up the kettle, over which you must not fill it. The whistle is not loud at all and can barely be heard if you are not in the same room. There are 'air vents or dents' around the lid where the steam can also escape from and this is what reduces the pressure coming out of the whistle, ma Read more

Was looking at various models for my gas stove but none of the ones I saw came close to the quality of the Le Creuset kettle. I have the pots, so thought that the kettle might be very heavy, but it's not. The inside finishes are beautiful and ...... my coffee actually tastes better.....yes I know that's impossible, but I suppose it's similar to drinking coffee out of a special mug, it just tastes better!

I use this primarily for decocting and steeping herbal teas on the stove top for extended periods at low heat. Useful reminder to reduce the heat when it starts whistling. Beautiful kettle, even when not being used.

It is a beautiful looking kettle and it does what it says on the box. Unfortunately how ever the unit begins to rust on the inside within 1 year or so of use. I have now returned 3 of these in 4 years and keep getting a new replacement. So kudos to Le Creuset for honouring their warranty, but the kettle should not rust. In addition, the metal lip by the lid also pulls loose. Le Creuset says don't Read more

I bought this kettle in cherry red to match my pans which have been in use daily for more than 20 years and I'm delighted with it. It's sturdy, boils the water quickly on my gas stove, has a lovely little whistle and looks charming in my kitchen.

It's an excellent choice! I hear the whistle even from afar, no spilling, no heavy steaming when opening the spout, boils relatively quickly depending on the volume. I love it!

My new Le Creuset kettle is a vast improvement on my old aluminium one. My only complaint is that water drops on the outside dry to white spots, which are very visible on the shiny black, but I guess that is my water's problem, not the kettle's!

I was somewhat skeptical at first in purchasing this item, mainly for my wife, as we have always had an electric kettle that you just flick a switch on for... but now... not only are we saving heaps on electricity with the daily coffees and teas, but the appeal that this kettle gives in our kitchen with its magical whistling sound takes me back to my childhood and to memories of times long gone by Read more

Review by Karl R. on 4 October 2020

If you live in a coastal town, go SS (stainless steel) rather. We had this kettle for 8 years and only used filtered water. The base inside is completely rusted. Went online - only has a 5 year warranty, drat! Gas is the preferred source of cooking and right now we are using our inexpensive small camping kettle.

Review by Margaretha W. on 28 December 2020, 16 days after purchase

Verified Owner

For kettles used on a daily basis on an induction plate, the pure stainless steel (no colour coating) option is the best. It pours well. The lid is a bit stiff, but loosening with use. In order to hear its loud whistle when water is boiling, the lid must be firmly clicked into place.
