Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Revere 3-1/2-Quart Copper Bottom Teakettle
Customer Review: do the job, but Hard to clean
Summary: 3 Stars
If you are a cooking enthusiasm, this is NOT a Teakettle for you. Otherwise, everytime you cook foods, you need to put it aside, anywhere but the stove top, to avoid it being bespattered.
Once the teakettle get dirt on the surface, especially oil mixed dirt, it will be a nightmare to clean it. I've tried every clean method, even using metal scratcher plus hand soap, still can not get it cleaned. So the poor teakettle of mine always looks dirty! how frustrated it is.
other than this flaw, it do quite a nice job, water can be kept warm for more than 1 hour after boiling, even in winter.
Customer Review: Flicks hot water.
Summary: 2 Stars
I wanted just a simple whistling kettle so I replaced my old RevereWare kettle with the new model (lid hinge broke on old model). I was disappointed to see that that the new design puts the handle very close to the top of the kettle. The worst thing is that when you pull the trigger to pour your newly boiled water it flicks a few drops of boiling water onto your arm. I suspect this may disappear with age but my kettle is used daily and I have had it for about a month and it is still doing it. If you pull the spout trigger very slowly and controlled you can control the splatter.Customer Review: Revere 3 1/2 Qt. Copper Bottom Teakettle
Summary: 1 Stars
This product is made of very thin material. After one week of heating water the side of the teakettle split open and boiling water ran all over. I had already thrown away the packaging. I contacted Amazon to ask if I could return it without the original packaging. That's been 3 weeks ago and Amazon has still not responded. Both the teakettle and Amazon get failing grades F-!! Will never use Amazon again to purchase a product!!Revere 3-1/2-Quart Copper Bottom TeakettleCustomer Review: Whistle now blows; water stays hot and kettle is gleaming!
Summary: 5 Stars
For over fifty years my family has used this Revere type kettle. Can no longer seem to purchase it in the stores! It is safer than most kettles--fancier ones (in decor) always seem to mark up the range, steam leaks and burns hands, etc.
Revere's handy whistle (which of late I take not for granted) safety manner in pouring boiling water as well as it's heat retention has made this the one product I surely missed when others decided to "borrow" my kettle.
I am grateful for a very hot cup of tea! Many thanks for keeping this available.
Customer Review: Boils fast but this is a flawed kettle
Summary: 2 Stars
Well reviewed on amazon but this kettle is lacking. The copper does, indeed, boil water fast; and that's the job of a kettle, I admit. However, the button/trigger that opens the spout is too close to the steam and you're forever guarding your fingers and shying away from the kettle. As you tilt the kettle to pour, you're also tilting the steam nearer to your fingers. It's uncomfortable at best and searing at worst.
While you learn how to not get scalded, this kettle is always at least slightly irritating. There are better kettles around.
