All Clad Stain­less 2 Quart Teakettle

Renowned world­wide for its cook­ware col­lec­tions, All-Clad now makes kitchen acces­sories, and that’s wel­come news to seri­ous and pro­fes­sional cooks. This gor­geous 2-quart teaket­tle is a per­fect exam­ple. Made of heavy 18/10 stain­less steel pol­ished to a gleam­ing mir­ror fin­ish, it’s stain– and corrosion-resistant, comes with a remov­able whis­tle, and boasts a grace­ful, com­fort­able stay-cool han­dle. A thick alu­minum disk set into the bot­tom (and clad in stain­less steel for easy clean­ing) ensures quick heat. A lovely com­ple­ment to any All-Clad cook­ware line, this teaket­tle also stands on its own as a beau­ti­ful, prac­ti­cal addi­tion to any kitchen. The ket­tle car­ries a life­time war­ranty against defects. –Fred Brack

User Rat­ings and Reviews

1 Star Does not whis­tle
My old Oxo whistling tea ket­tle just broke (spring popped out and it stopped whistling) after 4 years of use. So, I bought this All-Clad based on the well-known cal­iber of its pots and pans. Unfor­tu­nately, after one day’s use, I am return­ing it, as it does NOT whis­tle. Not only does it NOT whis­tle, but the entire prod­uct is flim­sier than my Oxo was. The bot­tom is thin stain­less. It’s made in China. I think I’ll get the Wind­sor whistling ket­tle, made in Eng­land. Avoid this All-Clad mistake.

1 Star Junk
I love All-Clad gen­er­ally, but this is not really All-Clad, in my opin­ion. In spite of All-Clad’s proud mar­ket­ing that it is a US prod­uct, this piece is made in China under con­tract with All-Clad. It looks fine on first glance, but feel it — it is cheaply made with bad fit and fin­ish. Instead of riv­ets, it has spot welds. The design is bad as the han­dle heats with the water and you need a pot holder to pour the water. The whis­tle on mine did not work. And, I con­tacted the com­pany twice about it and got no response. Don’t waste your money. I will think twice about buy­ing any more All-Clad from a com­pany that does not even pro­vide a cour­tesy response to two cus­tomer complaints.

1 Star Not a good buy
I own and love All-Clad cook­ware, so I was hope­ful this teaket­tle would be another fine prod­uct. Unfor­tu­nately, this teaket­tle does not meet the grade. I got two dif­fer­ent ver­sions from a store and they both had the same prob­lem: the whis­tle does not fit securely in the spout, and as a result, the pres­sure does not build up and the ket­tle does not whis­tle. I gave up on All-Clad and went with Chan­tal, which works very well and looks good, too!

1 Star Con­stant Metal Flecks Make This Ket­tle a Loser
I have now had and returned 3 of these ket­tles b/c the boiled water–and I have boiled 10 (TEN) batches of water in EACH ket­tle and each time the boiled water con­tained lit­tle silver/grey flecks of metal. It is unbe­liev­able that 3 of these ket­tles would have the prob­lem and that All-Clad is “unaware” of any issues with the ket­tle. The model that has been shipped was “Made in China” and leaves me won­der­ing how All-Clad is over­see­ing the man­u­fac­ture of these ket­tles, and what exactly is going into the boiled water. Steer clear!

2 Stars All-Clad Stain­less Tea Ket­tle
I have All-Clad pots and pans, which are sub­stan­tial and well-made. I assumed this prod­uct would be the same. The stain­less steel is in fact rel­a­tively thin. The remov­able whis­tle flimsy, essen­tially snap­ping into place by a sta­ple. The lid closes unevenly unless you force it down. Very dis­ap­point­ing. I bought a much less expen­sive Oxo and have been very pleased.
