 "Not worth the price" 2009-10-10
By Jacqueline F. Baires (DC Metro Area)
I selected this color because it was the only Chantal NOT made in China. The workmanship seemed well-done. The two-tone whistle was great; however, once in a while, some water managed to spew out of kettle even when filled under the spout mark. Additionally, as it reads on the label always use a mitt to handle the hot kettle. I would use the handle cover mitt that was provided with kettle and found steam to be pretty intense EVERY TIME I poured the water. Therefore, I would not recommend for individuals with delicate skin conditions.





This summer my family moved into a new apartment with ceramic top, my first time using one, and accidentally turned the wrong burner which hosted my tea-kettle. The Kettle boiled dry and the enamel fused into the ceramic cook-top. I had thoroughly read my kettle instructions immediately after I purchased it and knew that kettles left to boil dry was forbidden. That is when I called customer service and become even more disappointed. There was no alternative to repairing the missing enamel. Chantal offered to sell me another kettle for a discounted price ($72). The two-tone whistle is unique but I am not willing to make such an expense for it. The original price of my kettle was $120 at Williams-Sanoma and I believed that Chantal would offer to repair it for a price, but $72 is unacceptable. These kettles are not worth the price. The kettle's instructions pamphlet reads that these kettles are not guaranteed to whistle every time. If you want to save energy and avoid boiling your kettle dry stick to using a kitchen timer with any kettle.
