    • I saw several other reviews that mentioned this same problem, so it is probably a general design flaw and not a specific problem with just mine.
    • I like the design and the ease of use of the Good Grips Uplift.
    • I must admit it does feel comfortable and the Uplift design is a great idea, but it is not worth buying so you can eventually burn your house down because the tea kettle whistle did not go off.
    • but it sure would be nice if such a great design held up as well as it looked
    • Great looking and smart design
    • Good design and expect good durability.
    • This is by far the best design I have ever
    • I bought this kettle because I liked the modern design
    • A classic design which works faultlessly.
    • Oxo used to be synonymous with good design -- but this tea kettle should have been left on the drawing board
    • Still a mediocre design if true but the devil you
    • This teakettle has a nice pouring design (cap lifts off while your pour) but what's with the cap melting off?

    • I like the sleek design and how, with a slight bit of pressure with your hand or tilt, the spout top opens with ease.
    • It is a sleek design
    • This is just all a failure to work out the basic design.
    • There's a comfy, thick handle designed to be easy on your fingers
    • Other than that, nice design.
    • I appreciate the design and the thought some good designer put into this device, it's built solid, well worth the money!
    • The uplift teakettle (I have the stainless steel two-quart variety) is designed so that when you lift the handle, the pouring spout automatically opens
    • The new one worked great, heated water quickly, whistled loudly (but not too loudly), and had a very well designed ergonomic, insulated handle.

    • The worst design ever!
    • I really do adore this thing and suspect I
