I sadly had to retire my favorite-ever tea kettle, which had a low pitched whistle. No idea who made it. Anyone own one of these? I think maybe they call it a "train whistle" kettle.
Not interested in an electric kettle, just a regular one I can put on the stove. |

It doesn't have a whistle at all:

This kettle is a thing of beauty. No whistle either though. |

| Why do you prefer a stovetop kettle over an electric? |

| Check Amazon reviews--the whistle is usually addressed. |

| Unless you have a reason for wanting stovetop, go electric. Game changer! |

So it comes with a siren? |

The ikea tea kettle has a nice, lower-pitched whistle.

| Chantal kettles have a low tone. Their whistles are made by the Horner harmonica company iirc |

Aesthetics. Plus I can use the stovetop kettle without power (gas). OP, I have a Chantal kettle with a Hoehner harmonica whistle. Not low-pitched, necessarily, but not grating, either. Almost pleasant. http://www.chantal.com/classic-teakettle.html |

| Chantal FTW. Pretty colors, too. |

OP here - thanks!
No electric mostly because I don't want another thing with a cord taking up space on my (small) countertop. |

| My MIL has a cute one with a bird on the top. Do NOT get that one. You need to remove the (hot) bird / spout cover to pour the hot water. Really poor design. |

Thats is true with ANYTHING you put on a stove. Isnt it?
