Can the whistle be removed?

It doesn't whistle. The steam shoots out as the pressure builds and it's loud, but I don't believe there is an actual whistle. And yes, that part of the apparatus can be unscrewed, but that may effect functionality.

Unfortunately it does not have a whistle.Please be very careful with the copper base. Our kettle had the base glued on and it fell apart after a month or two. We are very disappointed with the quality.

I've had my kettle for several years now, and it has a high pitched whistle. Can't tell you about the ones that are being sold right now.

Yes, you can adjust it so that it doesn't whistle by lifting the little cap off the spout. But isn't that the point of having a whistling tea kettle? So you know when the water is boiling?Contrary to another review, we feel this is a very well made kettle and are extremely happy with the quality of the piece. I sent two others back before we settled on this one.

Yes, however you can adjust the loudness and shirlness by adjusting the whistles barrel to whatever level is comfortable.

Our current one did not whistle loudly at first. However, after a few weeks it became much louder and now will drive you out of the house. We buy a new one every couple of years because our hard water eventually silts them up and they are hard to decalcify.

Yes, you need to carefully slip it off. It is gripped on tightly to the mouth piece, so be careful and remove it gently.

The sound from the boiling kettle is not very loud. You can hear it from another room but it is not annoying. There is no whistle but you can hear the kettle click off when the water has reached a boil. Hope this info helps!

No ... that's why we bought this one. We were looking for one with no whistle!

I do want a whistle..and mine does not. It is a very good looking one, but no whistle including the bird fits. The spout is too narrow. Wish I could have seen your note on time.

Yes, a very loud whistle is created by a "ball and valve" system in the spout. When you pick up the kettle, it should have a bit of a rattle which is that little ball jiggling. You will love this kettle!!!

I definitely don't think so. It is a very high quality train and works great for my family. I do highly recommend it for you, just don't expect any sounds other than whistle!

No, there's no whistle, and when I bought it there was no whistle attachment. Still, a nice kettle and I've been happy with it.

it is not a whistle, it is just like a radiator hissing for a few seconds, while it releases the pressure. i say it is like a radiator hissing because it lets out some steam and that is what it sounds like.

If you've ever had one in the past, the whistle is nothing like it was. I returned this same item just for that reason. If your looking for a nice whistle I would not recommend this one.

I'm not sure I haven't tried to remove it .It's a pretty cello and a good size but if you decide to purchase this cello make sure to order better quality strings and bow.

Yes. It's attached to it, and to remove it you would need to unscrew a couple pieces.
