☕ Red Gibson Alderton 2.3 Qt. Whistle Tea Kettle - Efficient and Stylish! Review

The name and/or description of this kettle is imprecise or at least incomplete. It says it's stainless steel, which is only partially true. The bottom is stainless steel and the sides are aluminum which defeats my purpose of buying a stainless steel kettle. It is misleading and should be corrected. I am sending it back and need to renew my search for a genuine stainless steel kettle.

Love the look and the addition to my kitchen but even though the handle is high above the cabinet it gets hot and needs a hot surface to touch it. Also, be careful not to use too much of a flame or, as a previous reviewer pointed out, the finish will be slightly discolored. In addition, water boils long before the whistle sounds. So if you don't pay attention to the vapor, you're wasting time and fuel. I'm an artist and designer so the beauty makes up for a lot.

It was a great price so I bought it although I wasn't sure about the light colour. When it arrived I wasn't sure about the intensity of the color. (If you like bright or intense colors you'll love this one.) Although I needed a new kettle and was planning on keeping it. It was all my fault that I couldn't. I really don't know what I was thinking. It says explicitly (on Revain's website) that the capacity of the kettle is 2.3 litres. When it arrived I saw that it was too big for my use. I am 69…
