FAQ
Your Questions, Answered
Does this kettle work on an induction cooktop?
No, honey, it doesn't. This vintage blue whistling kettle is designed for gas, electric, and ceramic stovetops only. If you cook on induction, it won't heat up. Make sure to check your cooktop type before ordering.
How much water does the 2.5L kettle actually hold?
It holds 2.5 liters, which is generous enough for several cups at once. Perfect for a household of tea drinkers or when you're hosting a small gathering and need to keep the cups filled without running back to the stove every five minutes.

That's the whole point, dear. The whistling spout is designed to alert you when the water reaches a boil, so you can step away and come back when it's ready. It's a classic stovetop feature that works exactly as you'd expect.

What are your delivery times?
Orders are processed within 1 to 3 business days, and US delivery usually takes 5 to 12 business days. You will receive tracking by email as soon as your order ships.
How can I track my order?
As soon as your order ships, you receive an email with your tracking number and a link to follow the delivery in real time.
Which teapot do you recommend for a beginner?
For beginners we often recommend a ceramic or glass teapot: easy to use, easy to clean, and they suit every kind of tea while you find your favorites.
How do I choose the right teapot size?
It depends on your habits. For one person, 10 to 17 oz is ideal. For a couple, aim for 20 to 34 oz, and for families or hosting, 34 oz and up.
Can I use the same teapot for different teas?
You can, but we recommend dedicated teapots for strong teas: unglazed clay and cast iron keep a memory of the tea. Glass, porcelain and stainless steel stay neutral between teas.
Do you offer a warranty on your products?
Yes, all our products are guaranteed for 1 year against manufacturing defects, on top of the 30-day money-back guarantee.
Can I return an item if I am not satisfied?
Absolutely. We offer a 30-day return policy: if a product does not suit you, email teatime@luluteapot.com and we will make it right.
