Water boil fast in this tea kettle
Mainstays 1.8-Liter Whistle Tea Kettle, Stainless Steel Lightweight and water boil fast in this tea kettle. It whistles to signal boil. It has a max fill and mini fill line outside the kettle. You can press the spout handle to pour hot water safely. Hand washable in warm soapy water to keep it clean. I like it just what I need and looks cute on my stove.

Poor quality
You get what you paid for.. When pouring hot water the handle is to hot to hold . The whistle broke off after just one month. I would never recommend this product.

    Affordable Kettle
    I got this tea kettle in stainless steel. It is a nice-looking, affordable and functional kettle. This kettle is made of very light weight stainless steel. It can be used on any kind of stove top. The kettle has a removable stainless-steel lid. Maximum and minimum fill line guidelines are marked on the kettle. I don't find these fill lines practical because there is no way of seeing the water level from the outside of the kettle. The kettle has a coated handle and has a comfortable grip and can only be moved to one direction. After boiling water the handle is warm but not hot to the touch. This kettle whistles when the water is boiling. You just have to push down the lever to open the spout to pour out the water. This kettle is very light weight, but it does the job.

    Hope I am never without it!
    The Mainstays 1.8-Liter Whistle Tea Kettle is a shiny addition to any kitchen. I am hoping the kettle will last for years with its stainless-steel construction that makes the kettle rust and corrosion resistant. The 1.8-liter capacity (just over 7½ cups or 60 ounces) is enough hot water so that if your family has a variety of hot water drinks (tea, hot chocolate, coffee) for breakfast or anytime there is plenty of hot water for everyone. It heats on any stovetop (flame, electric, induction, etc.) and really does emit a whistle when the water is ready. The kettle heats water so much faster than the saucepan I was using. The kettle has a removable lid with a handle to seal the fill opening. It also has maximum and minimum fill lines to ensure optimum performance. The fill lines are engraved in the side of the kettle so that you are able to see it inside and outside the tea kettle. The modest design of the spout makes it easy to open by pushing down on the lever and the spout cover pops up and you are able to pour. The tea kettle features a coated and curved handle to offer a comfortable grip making it easier to lift and pour. The handle also bends to the side to make filling the kettle easier. The handle did get warm but not hot; I used a potholder to pour. I tried to capture the steam in the photo, but it did not show in the picture. The tea kettle is handwash only. I highly recommend the Mainstays Whistle Tea Kettle and I give it 5 stars. Note: I received this product as a promotion.

    Great little tea kettle!
    It took 6 minutes to hear the whistle and know my water was boiled in this mainstays 1.8L tea kettle. It's fill capacity is 1.4L a little less then 50 oz, and it has an indicator engraved on the kettle were it shows the minimum fill and maximum fill capacity I wouldn't fill it up higher then the indicators because you risk the water coming out when boiling. It's stainless steel and the handle and the lids knob are hard black plastic to prevent you from getting burned the kettle is easy to grip and pour without a spill you just simply open the spout and pour it in your mug and enjoy your tea or coffee! It's nice and small so I have no problem storing it in my cabinets when I'm not using it. Make sure to dry it after every wash since it is stainless steel it will get water marks if not wiped down.

    Comfortable to pour, easy to fill
    Base measures 7 ¼” in diameter Measures 8” tall with the handle up The handle has a 2 1/4” space allowance for hand between the lid knob and the handle itself The lid has a center knob with a black covering. The lid does have a set of three evenly spaced cut out notches that seem to help keep the lid steadily in place. The handle has a black covering, but I could still feel the heat when I touched it. The handle itself folds to the right but locks in place in the center. After letting the tea kettle rest for 30 minutes, the water was still hot and so was the black part of the handle and the knob of the lid. Two hours later, the water is still hot. Impressive!! The spout has a lift for a thumb or finger to move and it locks into place Inside there are two fill lines. One is for minimum fill the other for maximum fill. At maximum fill, it took a little over 6 minutes to come to a singing boil. At boil, the kettle whistles. It's not a high pitched screech, but a gentle whistle – which is a nice change! The sides are easy to wipe off, the water does not leave spots on the sides.

    Not my cup of tea
    I found this kettle to be poorly made of thin very light metal; mine dented with its first use. The handle is attached in a way it can only be moved down in one direction. The kettle is marked on the outside with minimum/maximum filling however when filling the kettle you will not be able to see how much you've filled it. The spout when lifted leaks from boiling water condensation. The flip-top spout is difficult to use., I had to use my other hand to open the spout. I didn't find this kettle comfortable to use.

    Beautiful little tea kettle!
    My new Mainstays Tea Kettle is a must for a good cup of hot tea. Being made of stainless steel not only makes it durable but beautiful decor for any kitchen. I love that the whistle signals you when it's ready. I would definitely recommend this item. Thank you.

    Good Hot Water Pot
    This Mainstays Tea Kettle is a basic yet good performing pot. It's definitely affordable and I've always used this brand. Holds 60.9 fl oz and whistles to signal boil. And because we're having water shortage, I heat water for hand-washing dishes. Better than running water until it gets hot. Therefore, my kettle is doing double duty. Lasts for years. Materials of stainless steel and nylon made in China.

    Works
    This Mainstays tea kettle works just the same as any other metal kettle. Top is attached to kettle tip so it stays with the kettle which is nice. Has a nice loud whistle when boiling. The plastic handle does get a little hot so be careful when pulling it off the burner. All in all I would recommend this tea kettle to family and friends.
