You won't let the water run dry when you hear the whistle of this tea kettle. Le Creuset constructs the traditional shape out of lightweight, sturdy steel and coats it with tough enamel. A shiny stainless-steel rim helps protect the edge from chipping and facilitates the lid positioning. The high handle can be locked in an upright position to keep your hand away from the heat, and a lever on the whistling device flips the spout open for pouring. Low and broad, the base allows maximum surface contact for faster boiling. Choose from many bright, modern colors to match or harmonize with your kitchen and other Le Creuset cookware. --Ann Bieri

I drink tea three times a day. This is my second La Cruset in ten years. I have also owned Chantal Kettles. They are equally brilliant and I would recommend them as well, but for slightly different reasons.
Major complaints usually consist of 1)Dripping/spitting water 2)Melting plastic spout 3)Black film on the inside after several years. 4) Oxidation/Rust on the insides and at joints
1) The spitting is simple. Don't overfill the kettle past the two holes on the inside. This is stated clearly in the directions. This causes pressure within the spout resulting in a steaming, spitting mess. The same thing will occur with 99.9% of other kettles.
2)Melting Plastic Spout- Everyone who had this problem also disclosed they were using a gas stove. So this is a pretty easy fix. Stop turning up the flame past the circumference of the kettle's bottom surface. (Look at the review above mine in chronological order. They have a video. That is what you should never do.) High flames do not heat up the water any faster and you will preserve your kettle for years to come. When material is exposed to an open flame, the material usually gets damaged! This is basic 8th grade physical science?
3)The Black film is caused from two things a) Mineral deposits over time from your water. b) Enamel Film that has been painted on. I don't know which it is for this kettle. Given the price, I hope it is not the second.
4) Rust is natural for any teapot and will not harm your tea or hurt your health. Many tea enthusiasts encourage it for flavor. The most common cause for rust is your water supply and not the tea kettle itself. If you have a high sodium content in your water, then your teapot will rust very quickly, possibly in a few weeks. If you have softer water, it may take several years. The best thing to do is wash them every day and dry them out thoroughly. Never leave water or moisture in your kettle. This is made clear in the directions.
This is a durable kettle with a beautiful aesthetic. My only complaint is I wish it came in all metal and did not have plastic accents on the spout, handle and top. However, the plastic is very durable and my complaint is no more than a personal preference. That being said, this is still my favorite kettle of all time. It is gorgeous and provides a conversation piece in the kitchen. I enthusiastically recommend it to anyone.
At 1.7 qts. it has a slightly smaller capacity than the KitchenAid. But my wife gets about 5-6 cups of tea per kettle with about 6-8 oz pours per cup. That's more than enough. What we both love about this tea kettle is that the whistle is plenty loud for us to hear in other rooms, and the water pours out hot and stays hot in the tea cup for a good amount of time.
This Le Creuset may be a bit pricey but the cost is worth it. This thing is built to last, maybe even for the next 100 years.

El otro pequeño detalle, que es más de diseño que de defecto, es que la boquilla de salida se agua está como redondeada en sus bordes y en ciertas posiciones el agua se escurre un poco por la superficie de la cafetera generando ciertos escurrimientos leves, pero es más encontrarle la forma. De ahí en mas muy bonita y de buena calidad.
