Does the kettle come with a lid?

Troubleshooting
Water not boiling quickly
Ensure the heat source is at an appropriate level and directly beneath the kettle. Check that the lid is securely fitted. Reduce the amount of water if near maximum capacity.
Water tastes metallic
This can occur with new kettles. Boil a full pot of water and discard it before first use. Ensure the kettle is thoroughly cleaned and rinsed.
Handle feels loose
Allow the kettle to cool completely. Check the rivets or screws securing the handle and tighten if necessary. If damage is significant, discontinue use.
Exterior shows discoloration from fire
This is normal for aluminum exposed to direct flame or high heat. It does not affect performance. For aesthetic preference, a specialized aluminum cleaner can be used, but test on an inconspicuous area first.
