Review on Demeyere Belgium Resto Water Kettle 4.25-qt. Bistrot - Enhanced for SEO by Jeremy Bradford

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Not a bad teapot for everyday use, the country of origin is a little confusing

I bought model 6.28 Qt. Hand forged in a small Belgian village in Indonesia. Unlike my Yelp reviews, which I post right after being exposed to a pile of poo while still fresh in my memory, I prefer to wait a bit before reviewing a product after a few months of use. The model I received in October 2015 was definitely made in Indonesia (see picture). I read some reviews that mentioned that the smaller 4.2Qt model was made in Indonesia, while the larger 6.5Qt model was most likely made in Belgium. nope A bit disappointed as country of origin plays a big role in raw material quality and durability in my purchasing decisions (i.e. not made in China with questionable means and materials) and I was expecting it to be from Belgium. I thought I could return it because I felt a bit cheated but I was too lazy to return it and hey it wasn't made in China. Here it is almost a year later: no problems, no visible signs of collapse, no rust. I use it every day to make barley tea. I can do a lot at once. Nice. Still looks new. Take care of him and he will take care of you.

Pros
  • Fits many
Cons
  • Some difficulties
