| When we remodel the kitchen and change to the induction cooktop, we'll have to give up our much beloved Revere copper-bottom tea kettle with whistle. ~sobs~
We use it at least once a day. I don't want an Insta-Hot. I like the 'zen' of boiling in a tea kettle. After reading a gazillion reviews of a bazillion tea kettles, I found three stainless (yet to be determined if they are magnet-friendly) that don't have a notable amount of terrible reviews mixed in with the good reviews. Do any of you have experience with either of these? Any other recommendations? Thanks! Vermont Country Store -

| Calphalon makes an induction friendly tea kettle, at a nice price from Bed Bath and Beyond that works pretty well. The enamel red and green are induction friendly, but I do not think its stainless cousin is. |

| Do you want a "pour over" shaped spout or any old tea kettle shape? I have been using an electric kettle for over a decade now and cannot imagine going back. I even timed my induction (one suggestion was going to be the Le Creuset enamel clad, which work on induction) to the electric and it was close. Hario makes a gorgeous, albeit expensive pour over spout. |

| I use the Deyemere 2-litre kettle to raise the water temperature to where I want it for a particular tea, then steep and store in a Corningware 2 qt tea pot. I use a timer to avoid over heating the pot and a thermometer down the spout for finesse. However, for those who boil their tea water, this pot could use a steam whistle. kas |

| Bonavita makes an electric kettle with temp. control for very reasonable prices. I did order the Bonavita for the induction (which it states is induction useable), and it did work, but it took almost double the time to boil water on it (base is not magnetic, but the hob recognizes a pan on it....odd). |
