(5) It's fine but I don't use it because I'm particular about my tea brewing temperatures. It makes an amazing trainlike noise every time my roommate uses it, though, so I love it.

It's sort of a low whistle like that of a train! It builds up slowly then reaches an apex at just above speaking volume or thereabouts. It's not too disturbing but lets you know the water is ready. I like it because it's so much lower pitched than most kettles I've heard which tend to be quite high pitched!
