Product Description
The 9093 Alessi Hob Kettle with Bird continues to go from strength to strength. Michaels Graves' highly personal and easy to recognize formal style blends influences from various sources: the European tradition, Art Deco, American POP, with flashes of pre-Colombian culture. He has an incredible ability to tune into public taste, even that of the man on the street: he is not a lover of theory, but he once admitted his wish to help create an 'American Style'. Design: Michael Graves, 1985 for Alessi, Italy. Approximate size: 2qt 3oz - h 9"""

After frying my 3rd Alessi kettle,I ordered a replacement through Amazon from Urban Lifestyle. The delivery was very fast, the packing beautiful, and the product improved over my previous holdings. Great experience.

Alessi Michael Graves Tea Kettle stainless-steel Azure HandleThis is a beautiful classic for which I was willing to pay top dollar. It does what it's supposed to do beautifully and quickly: look good and boil water. However, I was disappointed that my whistle does not sing like a bird or sing much at all. Also, it didn't occur to me that before I pour water from the kettle the bird must be removed. It's a bit of hassle, so we just leave it off much of the time.

You know it when you see it, there is no other like it. I use mine daily and have for more than 15 years. I've replaced the bird once, though I did buy several extras. The first one broke after only a few months, but the replacement has been in use for the balance of the 15 years. The shinny finish is all scratched from cleaning and the bottom needs a really good scrubbing around the edges occasionally. There is some mildew build up in the rim on the bottom. I wish I'd taken better care cleaning it over the years, so it would have stayed all shinny, but with splatter from all the other things cooking on the stove, it required some scrubbing. If I'd thought about it, I'd have moved it off the stove when I was cooking other things. If it wasn't so expensive, I'd get another, but the one I have was a gift and hard to part with. So, bottom line, it holds up well, does everything it's designed to do. The handle is cool to the touch, but you do have to remove the bird to pour, so wait a minute after a full boil, and the bird should cool completely before replacing it, so it doesn't crack. It looks beautiful for years, but you should take extra care to preserve the original shinny look.

I have owned this tea kettle for about 10 years. Not only is it fully functional as staple in my kitchen, it's adorable. Everyone who enjoys tea at my house comments on it. It is very durable, heavily constructed, and uniquely designed by Michael Graves. And of course, it "whistles". This is one tea kettle that you'll never have to replace; you won't be disappointed. It looks as good today as the day I opened the box. It's definitely a 5-star item.
