Viking Stainless Steel Whistling Tea Kettle

Excelente precio y calidad

Very happy with purchase, very stylish and great quality.

I am a tea lover and a pour over coffee drinker so I use my tea kettle ALOT and needed a quality kettle that wouldn’t cost nearly as much as my monthly mortgage. I have been using this kettle for about a week and overall it’s great. I love the placement and design of the handle! The glass lid secures and comes off with ease. It pours nicely, such that I can even make pour over coffee without water spilling!! It looks great and functions well. My only negative critique is value for the money spent. It is a light kettle and not as sturdy as I thought it would be for the brand and price. It feels a bit cheap. Definitely not a “viking” sturdy kettle but overall it is designed well and looks great. I am only disappointed with the quality for being a Viking brand product and costing nearly 100.00 it doesn’t quite hit the mark.

I've only had this kettle about 6 months and it has already discolored on the inside and the outside. it has an orange dingy hue. It is nicely made and strong and does the work, but it is impossible to keep it beautiful. I use it 2 - 3 a times. My last stainless steel kettle lasted 10+ years - bought from Costco - it was easy to clean up never discolored on any part - but the seal of the heavy bottom broke when someone dropped it.

This teakettle looks like the day it came - shiny and beautiful. It works just as promised - holds up to medium heat without stains on the bottom. You can see the bottom - which is a benefit. I've had colored enamel over metal teakettles in the past which were pretty but the black inside enamel could never really see what was going on with water mineral buildup, etc. This one is gorgeous inside and out and on the bottom too. It is sturdy. The handle is sturdy and does not get hot for me where it is held. I was worried it would be too heavy for me, as I wanted a kettle that could boil at least 8 cups of water at a time for my iced tea routine. But it is not too heavy. Just take care as you would with any amount of boiling water. The lid comes off just fine but it also stays on just fine, so you don't have to worry about it falling off while you're pouring hot water. The whistle part is working really well and seems it will continue to be sturdy also. It does whistle, but after the water is hot and really boiling. You can see inside the clear glass lid when it is starting to get hot, and you can see steam come out of the spout if you briefly open the whistle top. So, you don't have to wait for a whistle to tell you it is hot enough for your coffee and tea. It also stays hot a long while after you've heated up the water, so if you want to boil your water for coffee before you need to use that burner for your other cooking, the teakettle will keep the water hot til you want it a little later. Viking lives up to its great reputation.
