The following safety alert from the CPSC, on August 15, 2013.
Chefmate 2-Quart Tea Kettles have been recalled by Wilton Industries Inc., Woodridge, IL because steam can travel up the handle, or water can spill from the spout, posing a burn hazard to the consumer. In addition, the leaking steam can cause the kettle to fail to whistle. If water completely evaporates from the kettle, the aluminum bottom can melt onto the stove and pose a burn hazard.
This recall involves Chefmate 2-quart tea kettles sold with a black enamel finish and a solid black resin handle. The Chefmate logo is stamped on the bottom of the aluminum tea kettle.
This product was sold at Target stores nationwide and online at Target.com from January 2006 through May 2013 for about $9.
