There is no mention that this "Demeyere" Tea Kettle is the lower end of their line. It does not have a 30 year warranty it has a 2 year warranty. It would not have bothered me if it was noted in the product description that this kettle was the "Resto" by Demeyere. Not made in Belgium, made in Indonesia. Very Disappointed that Amazon let them get away with this.

This is the highest-quality kettle I have seen on the market. Thick solid surgical stainless steel, impressive encapsulated bottom for induction cooking (personally, I use it on a gas stove). Manufactured -the HARD WAY -out of a single piece of steel, no seams. The spout is welded to the body, then machined/polished smooth so it looks of a single piece with the rest of the kettle. Magnificent workmanship.You get a 30-year warranty for home use (10 for commercial use). I don't know what such a warranty actually means... but for me it certainly means this will probably be the only piece of cookware that'll be fit to be passed on to the next generations as a treasured heirloom. It's that good.

This kettle is a waste of money. The kettle sits on a 6" disc of heat absorbing metal. This disc is what makes the kettle induction compatible. However, the disc size since it is about 2 inches smaller than the diameter of the kettle is too small to heat the water. I use it on a ceramic cooktop stove which requires the pot base size to be matched to the burner size. You don't put small pots on big burners. So I am relegated to using the smallest burner which requires a good 15 minutes at the high setting to bring four cups of water to a boil. Which is unacceptable to me. Lastly, I was hoping I could live without the whistle. I figured I would set a timer and deal with it. But it is almost impossible to figure out when the water starts to boil even with your ear next to it. I purchased a good copper kettle made in England a couple of years ago. I had hoped never to need another kettle but when the nickel interior started coming off exposing the copper I worried about metal poisoning. I purchased this kettle because it was suppose to be high quality and made in Belgium. It is made in indonesia, I doubt the welds for the handle will hold up to time and it comes with a warning saying don't let water boil out or bad things will happen like melting. So why no whistle? I have ordered a kettle from Plow and Hearth that states the stainless steel kettle can even be heated dry, plus it has a whistle. The stainless steel is not as good 18/8 vs 18/10 but then how do I really know the quality is really there. Bottom line, I purchased this kettle because I read it came with great warranty and was made in Belgium. Neither of these things were true with this kettle. I will attempt to return it but do not hold out much hope since it was not shipped directly from Amazon.Honest reviews on Bistrot by Demeyere Belgium Resto Water Kettle 4.25-qt.

This is a very nice, very BIG kettle; it looks a little silly on my small stove, but I don't care. This is probably better suited to those who need larger amounts of boiling water, for example, for a bain-marie, rather than making a cup of tea or coffee. That said, simple, pretty design, and I'd buy it again.
