Know before you buy
Yes, the Chantal Classic Series kettle features a magnetic carbon steel base, making it fully compatible with induction, as well as gas, electric, ceramic, and halogen stovetops.
No, the porcelain glass enamel interior is non-reactive and designed to maintain water purity, ensuring your tea or coffee tastes clean without any metallic aftertaste.
The kettle features an exclusive harmonica-style whistle that produces a distinct, melodic two-note sound rather than a shrill, high-pitched shriek, signaling clearly when your water has reached a boil.
The kettle is designed with an ergonomic, stay-cool handle that remains comfortable to touch during the boiling process, provided the flame or heat source is kept within the diameter of the kettle's base.
Yes, the precision pour spout is engineered to provide a steady, controlled stream, which helps minimize drips and spills when filling your mug or teapot.
While the total capacity is 1.8 quarts, it is recommended to fill the kettle only to the fill line indicator to allow for proper steam circulation and to prevent boiling water from splashing out of the spout.
