HARIOV60 "Buono" Drip Kettle Stovetop Gooseneck Coffee Kettle 1.2L, Stainless Steel, Silver

Great kettle. Saw this at Sur La Table for a whole lot more $. It is stainless, however not a super high quality stainless because you can stick a magnet to it. That being said, it woks wonderfully for tea, or a pour over for coffee. Handle and knob stays cool. Enjoy

This little tea kettle is just what I was looking for. We are senior citizens and enjoy a cup of tea after our dinner. I was looking for something that was sharply made, stainless steel, lite enough to for us to lift once, and most importantly didn’t whistle, because the whistle scares my pussycats and I believe it even hurts their ears. You know the water is hot enough as you can see steam coming from the 3 steam holes on the lid. Just a very nice tea kettle for 2 to 4 cups of tea. Very well made directly from Japan who love their tea. We love it.

This is a good, well made kettle. I did not see any whistling quality that others have mentioned and assumed it would incorrectly - it does not whistle when water boils. As a result, I somewhat burned the kettle but it works well even discolored. It had no other damage other than turning a different color and the burn marks inside. But it is reliable, reasonably comfortable pours for pour over coffee. Price was reasonable for Japan made imported quality. I didn't perceive as much of a difference as others might except that it is not super thin like some of the chinese imports.Note that even the large may not be as large as many US kettles. It may be large enough for 3-4 cups of water, which is more than fine for me. Check the capacity and remember that the lower goose neck means lower capacity than a full filled to the top kettle.

I’ve read reviews about the Hario for awhile, and the glowing reviews are correct. I got the 1.2L version and it’s the perfect size. Not too big at all, and heats water fast. Be sure to read the instructions for some helpful tips about extending the life of the kettle. Also, you’ll probably need to tighten the lid top when you get it if it is loose. After that, it works flawlessly and looks fantastic on your stovetop. I’m really glad it doesn’t whistle. You can hear when the water is boiling easily. Pouring from the kettle is an elegant experience.

I was in the market to get another kettle as I was getting tired of moving my current gooseneck in and out of the motorhome each time we left, or returned home. I was going to buy the same as i currently have, but the price for the (stovetop) version was ridiculously high, so decided to go with the original Hario Kettle, at 1/2 the piece. And, I am glad I did. This is a very well made, stainless steel kettle with a gooseneck that can pour very slowly, or quickly, depending on the angle of pour. It heats quickly on my gas range and no issue with the handle getting too hot to hole. It can easily hold and heat 1 liter of water, if you want to do a large pour over. This kettle will stay on my gas stove top and the other will reside in my motorhome as the Hario will be my daily driver.

Works well

Nice construction, cleanable, and well-balanced for controlled pour over. I had the 1.0 L version of this kettle for many years, using it on induction and a gas stove, and it was durable - looks nearly new. Gave it to my friend so that he can have good pour over, and I bought this larger size for myself. Very happy!

Like many others, I was very disappointed with the quality of this kettle. The metal is very thin and the lid will not stay on when pouring. Plus, the price is substatially higher than other brands that appear to have heavier metal and a temp gauge.
