Product Description
Oxo Good Grips, 2 QT, Brushed Stainless Steel, Uplift Teakettle With Santoprene Handle, Lift The Kettle By Its Handle & The Spout Cap Opens Automatically For Easy Pouring, Large Opening For Easy Cleaning & Filling.
Amazon.com Review
Bring out the scones--the Uplift teakettle covers all the bases when it comes to making tea. Its spout opens when the nonslip, heat-resistant handle is lifted, keeping fingers and hands far away from scalding steam. The removable lid is extra wide for easy refilling and simple cleaning. Its 2-quart capacity ensures that there'll be enough tea to go around, even if you're entertaining guests from the other side of the pond. Made of sturdy brushed stainless steel, this kettle will last through many a teatime. The Good Grips line is recognized for its durable, nonslip, flexible handles. Ergonomically designed to fit the palm comfortably, the pressure-absorbing processed rubber handles put less tension on the hands while still providing an outstanding grip. Made from the same material as dishwasher gaskets, the handles are slip-proof when wet or dry. OXO recommends hand washing the Uplift teakettle. --Laurie Notaro

 Great product August 4, 2008
I've been having this product for over a year now, and have not had any problems with it. I use this product in my kitchen everyday. All I have is Oxo in my kitchen and wouldn't settle for anything else.
 Design flaw led to broken handle lid on two separate models May 27, 2008
My wife and I experienced the same problem that a few other people have mentioned, but I wanted to add that we even returned the kettle for a brand new one and it happened again. Surely this is a design flaw.
The lid forms a tight seal, and is actually difficult to remove. The handle on the lid broke off within the first month of usage. And we were even gentle with it the second time around.
Poor design and/or craftsmanship on this one. You have been warned.
 Great product support April 22, 2008
I've owned the Oxo Uplift for several years and been generally happy with it. However, the whistle stopped functioning not long after I began using it. I tried to fix it with no luck. After a couple of years I decided to contact Oxo to get a replacement part- and I was willing to pay for it. Oxo replied to me within a day that their products are guaranteed and they promptly sent me a replacement new Uplift! That's great customer service that I wish was more common.
 Nice but expensive April 21, 2008
I wanted a different looking kettle and this one is definetely different, bright color, cool design; love the automatic spout action, really practical, whistle works great BUT it's near impossible opening the kettle to fill with water without hurting one's hand really badly: that's poorly designed.
all in all, great kettle but I was expecting just a lot more for that price.
A great kettle! April 7, 2008
This is a great kettle. I was a little hesitant to purchase it because of the price and because some of the reviewers had mentioned that it splashed hot water droplets when they picked it up, but I checked it out at a local store and loved the feel of it, so I went ahead and purchased it. I can happily report that we haven't had any problems with splashing droplets, even when the kettle is very full. I think I also recall complaints about a hot handle. This has never been a problem for us with this kettle; though with our previous one (a German-made Kamen kettle) it definitely was.
The one thing I would point out to potential buyers is that it has a slightly smaller volume than most other kettles. This isn't a problem for us since we're usually just making tea for four people at a time. The upside of the smaller volume is that it saves energy when, if you're like my husband, you have a tendency to fill the kettle to capacity before heating, even if you're just making a single cup of tea. The smaller capacity just means that it comes to a boil faster.
Beyond that, it's just a great looking, great feeling kettle!
