It's made in Germany. At least, that's what it says on mine. I don't know if they are all made there.

Now they're made in the Czech Republic so I hope Braun aren't going further and further to the East to be manufactured. Still very good quality.

I don't think they will ever be made in China, not if they want to keep their repute.

There are no markings on the kettle (or base) indicating the location of manufacture. And I don't have the manual any more. Sorry.

I don't have an answer for you, Toni, but I'm with you about not buying any made in China. It shouldn't be too much to ask to be able to buy a quality kettle not made in China. Good luck!

I have purchased two of these Le Creuset 1.2 Quart stainless steel kettles. The first one, which i bought over a year ago, was made in Thailand. The second one, which I bought a few months ago, was made in China.

I don't know but my recommendation is DONT BUY!!! the kettle failed after four months - it did not switch off and boiled dry to the point of melting the plastic base. More than four months after contacting the seller we are still waiting for a refund.

The kettle is stamped made in Germany, and I love it! I have one, my mother has one, and so does my daughter. I whole heartedly recommend this item.

Hi. I'm not sure what country it was made from. I bought it for someone as a gift because they love drinking tea. Sorry I couldn't help.

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.

Customer service is in US, and they respond quickly to questions or service issues. However, on the bottom of the unit it says "MADE IN CHINA". I am very happy with my unit, and what it will do. I grew up using stove top pressure cookers, and still have one, but love this one.

Not sure where it was made. I threw the box away same day it arrived. I looked all over the thermometer and it doesn't say where it was made. Could be China, but not sure. It is all stainless steel except for the handle and glass for the thermometer.

I don't know where it was made or assembled (why do you care anyway?), but the glass says Germany and its good, really good. I have owned and used a bunch of different brands and styles and this one is the top one when it comes to electric kettles.

I enjoy my teapot, use it everyday, get a lot of compliments on it, but I do not know where it was made. Sorry.

Not made in China, it is made in England, That is the reason I purchased it in the first place. It is chrome and it spots on the inside. I am on my 5th or 6th Simplex tea kettle because of the shape only! Love the way it looks. If I could find an All Clad made in the US I would like that. This is the only tea kettle I have found not made in China.

The label states that it's made in China. Your question sparked my curiousity about the company's origin, so I found the following link: http://www.thermos.com/history.aspx

So sorry. My kettle does not state where it was manufactured and I no longer have the box.

I cannot tell where it was made. There are no markings on the teakettle and I have thrown away all of the packaging material.
