Customer Reviews
Love this kettle, April 30, 2011 By pandagirl
"This was a great purchase. It is my first kettle so I don't have anything to compare it to, but I have had no problems with it. It is easy to clean, heats up fast on my electric stove, and the whistle is loud enough to hear in any part of my apartment, but might be too quiet for a house. The handle does get hot, so I use a towel or a pot older to lift it from the stove and to pour the water, but that isn't a big problem. I also love the way it looks. I would definitely recommend purchasing this product. My tea tastes great!! "
Perfect Kettle for Coffee!, March 24, 2005 By Tim (United States)
"I bought this kettle strictly for heating water for French press coffee making. Since this kettle is glass there is no chance of it imparting off flavors to the water (then the coffee). I got tired of my metal kettles becoming discolored and rusted, even with proper care. I love the idea of glass for coffee making and this kettle by Medelco is indispensable for coffee making!
It is also easy to clean (dishwasher safe) and looks wonderful. It holds 64 ounces of water when filled to the bottom of the rim, however DO NOT boil that much as it will erupt and shoot steaming water up out of the lid. I feel safe however boiling 50 to 55 ounces of water, which is more than enough for even the largest French presses.
I like to use a probe thermometer to monitor the water temp and stop at 200F, which is the ideal temperature for coffee brewing. This kettle does have a whistling lid that I use (I simply insert the thermometer into the whistling hole). The plastic handle is sturdy and remains cool (remember you can't use HIGH heat and expect the handle to stay cool, I like medium-high heat) to the touch and pouring is easy (the lid must be removed to pour). All the componets are thick and durable (especially the glass). With minimal care this kettle should last a lifetime.
All the features I wanted in a coffee kettle and add to that a fantastic price. Although inexpensive this kettle does not feel cheap. A wonderful value! "
