LE CREUSET Q3101-2 Enamel On Steel Whistling Tea Kettle, Flame

Hasta ahora después de un par de meses usándola todo va bien, no se ven señales de desgaste en el esmalte externo ni cambios de color por el calor, si acaso pudiera señalar 2 detalles de poca importancia diría yo, la tapa es algo dura de quitar y poner, incluso de nueva aún más, sin embargo, conforme El Paso de los días va haciéndose un poco más blanda a la presión necesaria para ponerla o quitarla.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.

Linda ótima qualidade. Amei!

Produto bem acabado, qualidade ímpar. Cumpre o que promete. Faz jus ao renome da marca.

This pot is beautiful and functional. Love it!

I'm compelled to write a review because most of the negative feedback comes out of ignorance and not reading the care directions.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 joints1) 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.
