whistle could be louder
I wish the whistle was stronger. I struggle to hear it from other room and afraid one day I can burn this beautiful kettle. If you like retro styled items this one is something for you. I’ve got almond version, now buying black one for my sister. Although traditional kettles are much slower than their electrical counterparts they are more durable. Once you get use to the pace it boils water with you will appreciate having such a beautiful item in your kitchen.

supreme quality
I bought it a year ago to free up space on worktop. Electric kettles are great, they boil water so fast and don’t need to be supervised while in use but they take too much space in my opinion. This one solved the problem. My black Wesco performed great until my husband took it to his workplace. There he and his great workmates burn i completely. Now I’m getting the same model or other Wesco kettle. I believe they are of supreme quality and are great investment.

handle gets really hot!
As you pointed out in your overview handle in this model gets really hot. I stopped my kids from using this kettle as I don’t want them to get burn. I’m planning to go back to electric model as this might be the problem with any traditional hob kettle. Electric kettle stops itself when th water is boiled while stovetop kettles need to be taking out of fire. It wouldn’t be a problem but... whistle of this kettle is almost inaudible which force you to keep eye on kettle all the time while it boils water. And this takes time...

not so good
Handle of this kettle is as hot as its design. It is unfortunately big disadvantage and safety hazard. Lid doesn’t close tightly as highlighted in your item description. I prefer to hold it with my other hand when pouring, just in case.
