does it have a whistle?

Yes, a very loud whistle is created by a "ball and valve" system in the spout. When you pick up the kettle, it should have a bit of a rattle which is that little ball jiggling. You will love this kettle!!!

It does whistle but it isn't an offensive sound! Best kettle I've ever owned and we're Serious tea drinkers

yes. the whistle is in the lid. (a moving ball bearing blocks the spout while kettle is sitting.) whistle works very well

Yes, it does have the "heckler feature". It has three different levels of heckling. Some are quite funny. Some are a little annoying which is o.k. as it is a heckler.

Yes, it has a bell chime. There are a vast variety of melodies: classical, xmas, jewish, a lullaby, a cookoo, "auld lang zine", and many others.

It doesn't whistle, but it is pretty loud on the highest setting. On the lowest setting it provides a nice level of white noise.

It does not whistle, it turns off automatically and you can hear the click when it's done. It's not too loud but you can definitely hear it. Boiling is not too loud either. This tea pot is perfect! We use it everyday. Would highly recommend.

Does not whistle, just a click when it turns off automatically. You can hear it boiling but it is not very loud and that lasts for only about 15 sec.

It does not. It's an effective little cheapie without all the bells & whistles. I love mine

There's a small plastic whistle on the headband. Its not great, certainly not in a convenient place for blowing, but if you blow hard on it, it *is* pretty loud. So I guess it could be useful?

To be honest I'm not sure if it has one. I don't have my paperwork on it anymore but I have had it for about 6 months now and it works great and is definately worth the money.

I don't know, but I do NOT recommend these whistles. They don't sound good when they work, but most of them wouldn't make a sound. The bird beaks were falling off when we got them. You get what you pay for.

It does NOT whistle. There is a small hole in the lid with no other apparent purpose, and I tried to get it to whistle (simply out of curiosity, because I don't need it), but no sound. Otherwise a solid & useful kettle.

You definitely hear the water work up to a boil. There's no whistle. The unit shuts itself off automatocally with a loud click after the water reaches a boil.

The boiling is audible, but it is literally the sound of water boiling, the unit itself is almost silent. The unit does not whistle. There is an LED light that is illuminated a purple color when the unit is working, and it turns off when the water is at boiling point.

It has separate sleeves for a laptop and tablet. It does not have an emergency whistle.

I have this exact one and I can verify that MINE does not whistle! I love it anyway, but yes, you have to keep an eye on it!

No, it doesn't. It's hinged and comes back down on it's own. But that's why I liked it...I had burned a teakettle because it didn't whistle and I forgot it.

It is fairly loud when it whistles, not the loudest toy we own, but probably in the top 10 I would say.
