I use this tea in a year. When you put water and that can not forget to turn on the gas, usually the water ends up boiling. The whistle whistle moderately asthmatic kind whistle. By cons screws are always trying to unscrew without being asked. A buy only if you like the kettle DIY (for the nostalgic mounting "kit 80" on their 103 SP) or if you think that the scrub boiling water is a joke to some members of your family. In all other cases, prefer a better article. Its only advantage: it is not easy to clean, so you have a good excuse to let it furring of distressing way.
