It looks like you pick it up by the handle that also comes off to fill it - is that right? If so, how does it stay attached when you pour? THX!

Actually the handle doesn't come off to allow filling and you have to fill it from the spout! I immediately returned this kettle and don't recommend it. For $100 you can get yourself a solid and beautiful Chantal or All Clad. They have their issues, but at least they are not ridiculous.

The handle does not come off, you fill the kettle through the pour hole. I still think this is a fantastic product and it keeps the water hot for a long time. You will not be disappointed.

The handle does not come off. You fill it through the spout. It's a bit awkward but it works well and is beautiful on the stove.

The handle is actually attached to the lid that is not removable. To fill the kettle you use the spout. I have had the kettle for 6 months now and we love it.

You don't fill it in the area below the handle; that part doesn't come off at all. You fill it through the spout. I had to call Nambe customer service to verify this because it LOOKS like you should be able to open the area under the handle. But you can't. That said, I still love this kettle. It is beautiful and it has the softest, prettiest-sounding whistle you can imagine. The whistle simultaneously hums 2 different notes in harmony. It is SO much less jarring than a typical tea kettle!

Unless I've just never figured it out, the top doesn't come off. We just always fill it with the spout, which is pretty broad. When we first got it, it was temperamental about whistling, but now it's consistent. Like one of the other people answered, it has a nice whistle, not as screechy as most kettles. I still think you can get just as nice of a kettle for a lot less money, but this one does look unique on the stove, though admittedly a bit out of place in our diner-like kitchen. It would best in a more modern-looking kitchen.

The only opening is the spout you pour out of. It does have a "seam" around the handle that looks like it opens. I thought the same thing before I ordered it. It's a little inconvenient to fill it through the spout since you can't see how full it is, but you figure it out quickly by weight. For me the looks of the Bulbo FAR outweigh the small issue of filling through the spout.

You fill the kettle through the spout. I have not found that the handle or top detach from the body even though it may look like it does. It's a beautiful kettle. I love it!

The handle just snap off by lifting it from the bottom and pull back. Its just like a clip on type of function. It holds really good strong. Its a great little machine, it works very well for it size.

What do you mean? You fill the product with smoothies or applesauce, then the top unscrews and you squeeze it out. :)

It should easily pull straight out from under the filter when held by the handle. Or does this question have to do with removing it from packaging? I don't remember how it was packaged.

When you pull the handle, it opens a valve and vents thru a weep hole. No mess and stops when you release the handle. A very good can. Hope this helps you.

I had no problem! I hold the handles and shake, and it slides right out. Of course, the deeper it is into the bag, the harder you have to shake. I found it easier to gradually pull it out a bit as the bag gets fuller. It's also easier if you crush the leaves down every so often as you are filling the bag. I start out with it on its side, and as it gets full, place it upright to finish it off.

the filter just sits in there. I have never had an issue of it coming out when pouring.

I believe the "ring" that hooks to the bottom of the cap is intended to break up any "clumps" of what ever your mixing. Failing that it is probably intended to strain them out if you pour it into a separate glass to drink. It is easily removed though.

It's exactly like the picture. You pick up the handle and tilt forward and the front opens to pour.

We use a blue bucket to fill it with the pour lip on it. We put the fill plug in take the top off and fill it.

The container comes off the base but it's more practical to fill it from the top. If you fill it from the bottom, with the lid on, you have to flip it over to put it back on the base.

It has a suction hose that you drop into the container of whatever solution you are trying to add. You can sit the jug on the ground or, like I do hang it from the handle with a string or wire. It works perfectly.

It has a metal screw. You can remove the screw, (which is good for cleaning) but then the glass will separate from the handle, and it'll be hot so it might be difficult to reassemble and pour.

Pull behind. The handle likes to fall down. I would like it to be locked in place so when you let go of it that it's still in the position I left it.

It's very simple, just press the handle, long-side, into the places shown on the picture. There is a ball mechanism that holds the handle and the item does not slide down as there are rubber pieces to hold it in place. When ready to remove, just pull forward and it quite easily comes out.

Yes, we've never had a problem with the lid falling off. If you try to pour with a full unfiltered reservoir then it might be a different story (unless you physically hold the lid down), but otherwise it's always stayed on perfectly.

No, it is securely attached to the handle. But it is made of a fabric that rinses clean; it doesn't get sticky or have that 'clogged' feeling. Also, it is not so dense that water doesn't get through it. Let me know if there's anything else I can add.
