I am replacing our old Alessi 9091 Kettle (wedding gift 36 yrs ago). Unfortunately, it had a copper bottom which was not compatible with our new induction cook top. It's exquisit design and size is perfect to show off in our galley kitchen! I am so happy!!!!

We purchased the kettle to replace the one we bought years ago. This kettle feels very much “less” than the original. It lacks the solid copper base, the lever for the whistle does not work well- it is too tight and cannot easily be raised or lowered, the insulated grip is too small, it’s difficult to use….would not recommend.

Absolutely love this kettle. It is a joy to use and hear the harmonious whistle (loud enough to hear from different rooms in the house which is what we wanted from previously melting a kettle). This kettle makes 3 large cups of tea with a bit to spare. Hopefully this will be the only kettle I have for the rest of my days. Quality piece, classic design.
