This wiki has been updated 16 times since it was first published in December of 2018. For serious tea drinkers, the few minutes it takes to heat up the water can seem like an eternity. As the old saying goes, a watched kettle never boils, but if you take your eyes off it for too long, it will burn dry, and possibly even catch fire. That's why you need one of these whistling beauties, which will let you know the second your water reaches the proper brewing temperature.

Editor's Notes

January 03, 2019:

We chose teapots in a variety of sizes and materials, including stainless steel, glass, and enamel-coated steel and iron. We also made an effort to include both simple, understated options, like the OXO Good Grips Classic and Willow & Everett Stove Top, along with some more decorative styles, like the Le Creuset Zen and Paula Deen Signature, so you can find one that fits in with just about any kitchen decor.
