Is there a warranty on this tea kettle? Nervous after reading reviews. Is it for sure made in England?

It is definitely made in ENGLAND, as for warranty you have the normal AMAZON warranty, which you can check on here on the website, but for any manufacturer warranty, I just don't know, sorry.

It is made in England. There is not a warrantee. After lots of emailing, I was sent a new lid. But that was not the only problem I has over time. Ultimately, I got rid of and got s different kettle that has been a much better choice.

I do not know about the warranty, but it is definitely from England. It is a replacement for one of the same brand that we had for over 15 years.

The previous responders provided the answer. The strange thing is the Beka Cookwear water tea kettle is a product by a Belgium company (manufactured in China) , although it is not for sale in Belgium. The tea kettle work just fine, if you need a big one.

Not sure about the warranty; probably a standard 1 year; kettles seem to live for many years anyway. The color is deep red (carmin?)

This is the first Simplex Heritage Gas Tea Kettle that I have ever owned; so I cannot compare it with what you term "the old ones". I bought mine eight months ago, and I think that it is great. Water heats up very fast, and it seems to be well-constructed. If it helps, the company is based in Norfolk, England, UK.

The sticker on the bottom of my teapot reads "HIC China" so I don't believe it was made in the UK or the USA.

The kettle is at our house in West Va, along with the papers that came with it, so I don't know about the warranty. It is a deep red...very pretty!

Right now everything is made in China. I think maybe even Zojirushi has gone to China. I have a the Kitchen Aid kettle and it's been great so far. Several months now. It's used constantly. Keeps the water warm for quite a while so rewarming is fast. The price is high but I have replaced several other kettles in one year. Well see how long this one lasts.

I'm sorry, I don't know. I had the box in came in until I used it for another Christmas package this year so I didn't have a place to check where it was made. I'd recommend a different teapot anyway. I'm glad I got mine on sale and didn't pay the retail price at which I saw it listed. The knob on top melted when the pot overheated several months ago and this week, the know came completely off the lid.

This is confusing...it says "Made in China" at the bottom of the base, but the glass kettle says Germany....so ?????? I still love this teakettle; maybe it was mfg'd in China to German standards? It also says "SCHOTT" and "DURAN" on the glass..... But it is the best one I have ever had...and I have had a number of these things.

... I ordered this Tea Kettle but did use it. After I ordered it, I saw another one that I liked better, ordered it. When the one you're asking about arrived. I sent it back. Sorry I cannot help.Regards,Dave

It isn't stamped on the kettle and I no longer have the box; however, after an exhausting search myself to find a tea kettle not made in China, I can assure you that the kettle is likely from China. One good thing about this kettle is at least there is no contact with plastic.

Hello,I am sorry but I have already tossed the packaging that listed the country of manufacture. The kettle itself is not marked.

The Kettle has 1 year limited warranty, so you are fine. Just contact Amazon. When I bought it, I purchased additional 2 years warranty.

We have had ours for a couple of months now. We like it very much - never had the problem that you are talking about. Like anything new, it is a good idea to use it a few times by heating it up and throwing away the water. The only thing about it is that it is a bit slower to heat up than our previous kettle. We discovered the reason is that the heating element is sealed below. One could actually brew tea in this model - looks like it would be easy to clean because of the design.

The box says Made in USA. The tea kettle itself doesn't have a place of origin, so I checked with Williams-Sonoma online, and they have posted, Made in China. UGH!

Made in China, according to the bottom of the teapot :) This is not fine china, its porcelain. It is by no means high quality by tea set standards, but it is lovely and I have thoroughly enjoyed using it and have received several compliments on it.
