Le Crueset Kettle - Is it the Best Teapot Out There

I received my Le Crueset Kettle about 5 years ago and it is going strong and I love it. I've got a cherry red one or burnt orange. It looks burnt orange to me. Not as burnt orange as the Texas Longhorns colors (my favorite football team) but it's similar.

Anyway, the kettle works great and looks excellent. Some people have a problem with the enamel finish, saying that it chips too easily. It does chip, but it has to be hit pretty hard to actually chip it. Also, the enamel finish is what gives it the great vibrant colors.

When I get a Le Crueset product I consider it a lifetime investment, so the high price doesn't really bother me.
