Founded in 1921 as a 'Workshop for the processing of brass and nickel silver sheet metal, with foundry', Alessi has always stood out for the high quality of its products. In almost a century of history, the company has gradually evolved to become one of the leading 'Factories of Italian design', capable of applying its expertise and excellence in design management to many different product types. Open to change and international development, Alessi at the same time has a strong bond with the traditions and cultural background of its area and continues to be synonymous with handcrafted objects produced with the help of machines. Alessis mission is to translate its quest for the most advanced cultural, aesthetic, design and functional quality into industrial production. Designer products are the result of the constant reconciliation of art and industry, of the 'Immensity of Creative Potential' and the needs of the market. The company is committed to work constantly onto a boundary line, in balance between the most advanced expressions of the international creativity and the desires of the general public. Alessi has been described as a 'Dream Factory', which uses its products to make peoples dreams come true, providing them with the Art and Poetry that they seek. Born in Indianapolis, he has thought architecture in Princeton since 1962. His architectural works include the Portland Building and the Humana Building, the extension of the Whitney Museum of American Art, and the Newark Museum. He created the best-selling 9093 kettle for Alessi. Michael Graves died in 2015.

I’ve wanted this kettle for years but always felt that it was beyond my reach. However, when I saw that Peters of Kensington were selling it at a more affordable price, I could no longer resist! It is elegant & very practical. Really pleased!

I have been looking at this kettle for a few years (yes, years!) but just couldn't justify spending so much $$. But when it went on sale it was just enough to make a difference and I ordered it. Like others have said, it makes me smile when I see it sitting on my stove top so I'm a happy owner. No regrets!

I’m disappointed with this purchase. The whistling function only works intermittently. The fact the you have to remove the whistle to pour out the boiled whatever is not only difficult but dangerous. Like many things Italian it looks good but doesn’t function too well. Ridiculously overpriced. Would not recommend it

This is the third Alessi teapot I have purchased. The first, over 20 years ago, was for myself and it has brought me great joy over the years. I use it daily for afternoon tea, and find it graceful, whimsical and very durable. It sits on my stove top and it is one of my favorite objects. When my daughter moved to New Orleans for graduate school I gave her the identical one 2 years ago. She was thrilled to be able to carry on our afternoon tea tradition long distance. This year for the holidays I purchased the third teapot for my step-daughter, who lives in Toronto, so that all the girls could have tea together!
This is a beautiful kettle and looks lovely sitting snuggly between the Aga hot plates. It boils fairly quickly but not quite as good as my previous kettle which had a more solid steel base. However as long as you let it sit to warm with enough water in it's fine and possibly still a bit quicker than an electric.The whistle is fairly quiet and if it's too full doesn't whistle very well and spits water out but generally a pretty chirping sound.I'm very pleased with it and love the shiny finish!
Can you call a kettle beautiful?I just love the simplistic design of this kettle, the little details make a difference to your kitchen.The whistle top is a bird and I believe you can buy a dinosaur just to switch it up for fun.It's easy to wipe down , not too heavy like a lot of stovetop kettles and boils perfectly well like a good kettle should.It's slightly smaller than my usual kettles but what it does have is style and it suits my kitchen perfectly.
I have my original kettle, which is almost exactly the same, from 1985. The mirror finish wore off and I decided to replace it with a new one. I tried others and there were problems with them such as rusting, needing to be dried after each and every use, etc. My new Alessi has a problem. When the metal heats up, it expands and I can not remove the cover until it cools down and contracts back to its original (snug) fit. I am hoping to have the cover replaced with a better fitting one or to return the kettle for a new one. As stated, I've had this Alessi bird whistle kettle for 33 years and have never gotten tired of it. It always worked beautifully. I've replaced the bird whistle that wore out several times. I was upset when the finish wore off, but I'm still hoping ... MoreI have my original kettle, which is almost exactly the same, from 1985.

This tea kettle heats up more quickly that all of the other models I have owed over the years. It is also lighter and this makes it perfect for making pour overs. The style is unique and it is pleasing to look at. It deserves the special attention and care that is recommended, such a pouring out water each day to keep calcium build up.
There is no doubt that this kettle is a work of art. Beautiful but, sadly, barely useable. When water is boiling the steam rises from gaps around the lid to make the handle, which should be heat proof, scalding hot. The whistle is anything but…more like a cry for help from a drowning sparrow. And because of its wide bottom it is unwieldy when pouring, requiring the use of both hands. This now has a place on a display shelf in. my kitchen…never to set foot on a stove burner again.
I did a thorough search of teapots not made in China and this was on the top of my list. I'm so glad I purchased it. It is absolutely beautiful - really a work of art. The whistle works (I've read reviews that said that it didn't) and the handle keeps one hand from burning oneself on the pot. It makes teatime even more of a daily treasure.
