Product Description

Designed by architect Michael Graves in 1985, this kettle is the first of a group of products designed in the 80's and 90's by the architect. This was the first group of products by an American designer to be included in the Alessi catalog. It opened the way for the playful design style that subsequently characterized the 90's, and thanks to an inspired mix of post-modern and pop idioms, it has become one of the internationally recognized icons of the 80's. Still the best seller since its introduction, the kettle is actually the product that has sold the greatest number of units in the history of the company. Body is in 18/10 stainless steel with handle and whistling bird in PA. Both whistling bird and lid can be replaced. Magnetic steel bottom suitable for induction cooking

Michael graves, Designed for Alessi

Kettle 9093

This celebrated kettle with the bird that sings when the water has boiled was a great success when it was introduced in 1985, and for Alessi it represented a meeting of great design and mass production methods, a combination that Michael Graves worked hard to achieve, applying his personal visual code which fused influences from Art Deco to Pop Art and even the language of cartoons.

The Designer

Michael Graves

Born in Indianapolis, he teaches architecture in Princeton since 1962. His architectural works include the Portland Building and the Humana Building, the extension of the Whitney Museum of American Art, and the Newark Museum. He created the best-selling 9093 kettle for Alessi. Michael Graves died in 2015.

Alessi

The company

Founded in 1921 as a 'Workshop for the processing of brass and nickel silver sheet metal, with foundry', Alessi has always stood out for the high quality of its products.

In almost a century of history, the company has gradually evolved to become one of the leading “Factories of Italian design', capable of applying its expertise and excellence in design management to many different product types.

Open to change and international development, Alessi at the same time has a strong bond with the traditions and cultural background of its area and continues to be synonymous with handcrafted objects produced with the help of machines.

Alessi

Alessigraphy: the geography of Alessi production

Since the Company's foundation in 1921 the majority of Alessi products have been manufactured through the cold working of metals, a tradition that is kept alive today by the skilled workers at the Crusinallo plant in Omegna.

Over time, Alessi also began to work with many other materials, such as porcelain, glass, wood, and plastic... A specific production method was developed for each one. Even when production takes place outside the Crusinallo plant, Alessi’s guidelines ensure the company’s original production quality standards, continuing to reconcile industrial technological complexity with an artisanal eye for detail.

The objects produced from the different materials are manufactured in various production plants across the world. They remain original Alessi objects in that they are conceived with the same design excellence and produced with the same attention to quality that sets the company’s products apart.

Customers say

Customers find the tea kettle's design beautiful and appreciate its effectiveness for making tea. The build quality and heat level receive mixed feedback - while some say it's solid and heats water fast, others report poor craftsmanship and handle overheating. The whistle and value for money are also mixed aspects, with some finding it good while others say it doesn't whistle well and consider it overpriced. The ease of removal is a concern, as customers find it difficult to pour water due to the bird in the spout.

    A thing of beauty truly is a joy forever!
    You won’t be disappointed with the way this tea kettle looks.
    It boils an adequate amount of water per use. If you are looking to boil more than 24 ounces of water at a time, however, I would recommend a larger kettle.
    Read the directions on the proper care of this kettle before using it for the first time.
    It is such a joy to look at that, not only don’t I mind taking a little extra care with it, I want to!

    I’ve had my eye on this tea kettle for quite some time. It was finally time we got a new kettle and I splurged on this. For a pricey luxury tea kettle, I expected elegance, quality, and functionality. Sad to say elegance is just about its only quality.

    First of all, the whistle is quiet which I was happy that it wasn’t too loud; however you have to remove the plastic whistle in order to pour from the spout. Which is inconvenient. The whistle itself feels like cheap plastic and has an aluminum type spring that holds it in place on the spout. The first few times I boiled water I smelled a plastic-like burning smell and I reached out to the company to inquire about the quality of plastic used on the whistle. They basically said it was rated for heat and just to follow instructions. No further details were provided as to the type of plastic they used.

    I felt like this was not sufficient. Additionally, the kettle itself started rusting on the lid and the inside bottom after the second us. I used only RO water inside for boiling. The worst part of this kettle is that it has burned my hand twice now from steam. Removing the whistle leaves quite a large opening in the spout and HOT steam comes out of the spout when you remove the whistle after boiling and before pouring into a mug.

    Overall, I regret this purchase and wish I had went for one of the Japanese stainless kettles or the Le Creuset tea kettle. The design of this kettle needs safety and quality improvements.

Only issue is the whistle is not the easiest to use, since buying I have not used the whistle. I just have to make sure that I don't walk away and forget about it since there is no signal that its boiling.
