I love the font on the kettle in the photo- a nice helvetica, but i hate the writing on the kettle that i received- comic sans? can I trade it in?

The font in the picture is actually Arial. The biggest giveaway is the angled ascended on the letter (t). I still would have probably bought the kettle with Arial though. I just don't think I can justify owning anything with comic sans.

Wow, I was about to buy this. Good thing I read the questions first. As a graphic designer and as a human being I can't possibly own anything with Comic Sans. Medelco should've googled "most hated font in history", guess what yhe answer is... It's too bad.

I would imagine a nice safety razor blade would work just fine removing the offending font. I mean, yeah, Comic Sans is a hard-to-deal-with font if one has any sort of aesthetic sense, but utility really should win out for something as sole-use as a tea kettle. Just scrape the lettering off and forget it was ever there. Nobody know who Medelco is, it's not like this is a purchase made to impress the Jones's.

that was a photo from a beta release of the kettle. it turns out that helvetica will disrupt heat distribution and cause the water to heat unevenly. comic sans works much better for this purpose.

I mean, I can't believe this glass pot for boiling water has been designed with something so beneath me as a comic sans font! I think we should petition to have comic sans banned from use on any product that we might possibly look at. We should get together and have a Medelco Kettle smashing rally to punish this insolence!! I'm with with you on this. I've had a deep-seated hatred for Comic Sans ever since our local county used it on my grandfather's death certificate. I hate Comic Sans!!! Down with Comic Sans!!!!

I was about to buy this kettle until I found out the font was not the one pictured. Ugh. The sheer nerve of tea kettle companies these days. Disgusting.

I am on my second kettle - I can't remember the sticker - perhaps it was no big deal. The kettle is made of stainless steel, so you won't harm it. If it doesn't come off with Windex, Soap and water, you might attempt filling the kettle with water and bringing it to a boil. The heat should cause the sticker to losen from the kettle. Just be careful not to burn yourself in the process - Water boils at 212 degrees. Best of luck.

Yes, but be sure to get a proof via email. I asked for it and even after I approved it, they managed to send the incorrect font on the plate (it was only three initials, not that difficult I thought!). They apologized, offered to replace at no cost and now over a month has passed & no replacement in sight.

Hello Lauren B. Thanks for your interest. I am Blue Ridge Mountain Spirits. Do not get me confused please with the others. My barrels are top quality as I hope you read. There is a additional cost for engraving. You would have to contact me directly because I can't offer it on the Amazon ad. Plus, I want to be sure that I can get your engraving on and make it look great. If it will not look good, I will not take the order. Engraving is anywhere from $19.99 to $24.99. I can be contacted here in Georgia at 404.8227512. Thanks, Papa Rudy

... I ordered this Tea Kettle but did use it. After I ordered it, I saw another one that I liked better, ordered it. When the one you're asking about arrived. I sent it back. Sorry I cannot help.Regards,Dave

Negative, everything is in English and not even give you another choice. What's more if you want to sell it is in perfect condition like new. I remain attentive to your comments.

Both the name and logo are on the mug. It APPEARS they may be painted on. Doesn't appear to be etching. It's a fabulous mug!

I have not used mine since they are Christmas gifts but I think you would need to remove the previous lettering first. It is bigger so it might cover some of the warning but I don't think it would look right.

I'm not sure what I could tell you, in your place i'd contact the compagny that sold it to you, and ask for an exchange. After all everyone selling on amazon depends on a good revue from customer! Good luck

Many of the forms I sign have a font choice that recognizes my poorly writted letters and rescripts them. You can pick from several fonts. Other than that, it will probably look just like you wrote it.

aye, the font is strange. That was a major complaint in the review I left.My space bar works OK so I'd have to guess yours is a defect.

How do you let the seller know what do you want in your napkins. I mean text and logo? I do not see any way to do it online in Amazon!

It appears that the answers by ejp and Greg B provided information you requested. The kettle I purchased is stamped as ejp's kettle...

I ordered it from Designandgrace through Amazon.com. I paid 11.99. Make sure the flame stays under the kettle. My husband melted two (2).

After reading about this issue of the lettering disappearing, when we got our's we put clear tape over each button to keep that protected. We've had the kettle for a year now and still looks like new. We wish we didn't have to do that. All Cuisinart would have to do is scribe the letters in or counter sync the letters and fill with black. The problem would be fixed easy. Another thing you could do if you have a label maker is make labels. Other than that, we use it constantly. We love it!
