Comment on Copper cleaning tip by Ruthie

I love polishing the copper bottoms of my vintage Revere Ware.
It both relaxes and pleases me.
I read years ago, that heat is conducted better when they are not sparkly, shiny, coppery new looking. I don’t do it as often, also no longer have a hanging pot rack.

Are you sure it isn’t one of these? They do say 18/10 on the bottom. That particular number is the specification for the type of stainless steel (18% chromium/10% nickel) not a model number. Unfortunately Revere rarely if ever put model numbers on the bottom, or anywhere on cookware.

My mother and I bought a Revere 3 quart Pressure Cooker in the late 1990′s. As near as I can tell, the characters ” 18/10 ” are embossed on it’s bottom. Could these characters possibly be the product’s model number? If so, is there any way to get manuals, service, and support for this product. It is still in working condition, and I would hate to throw it away.

As for point 2 – Bakelite is a phenolic based plastic… pretty much the first of them, in fact.

Hi, a coffee pot with an early “Pat. Pending” finally showed up.
Is the Revere patent file still available? The attachment given is no longer active.

Thanks! Mike

Unfortunately we don’t sell those at the moment (haven’t made them yet) and Revere Ware no longer sells them. The only solution we are aware of is to find another kettle to use for parts.

Hi.
I have a small revere ware whistling tea kettle that no longer whistles because of damage to the black pc that goes over the hole. It no longer seals the hole.
I see there are 2 screws on the handle. Is it possible to get that whole unit ? Number on the tea kettle is CO2H, made in China.
It’s a beautiful little tea kettle cosmetically.
Thank you for any help you can offer.

I have a pan from the 70′s. The handle came off off the pan. The pins didn”t break off. It just came apart. Can you weld it or put it back on?

Ditto Chris. My brother bought me a Micro-Fryer as a gift when they came out, knowing that I was a big fan of Revereware.

While the quality of the cookware sold under the Revere Ware brand today is far inferior to the cookware produced decades ago, I'm not sure this is true with tea kettles. I've owned a number of them, both vintage and recently purchased and It is hard to tell the difference in both form and function. The newer ones may be slightly more prone to failure around the seam between the stainless steel and the bottom, or breakage of the Bakelite trigger or whistling cap, but I've had vintage ones fail in this way as well. I still use one today that was purchased in the late 90's. My advice would be to purchase a brand-new one from Amazon.com ($23) or get a used one from Ebay. The used ones on Ebay often go for $10 or so (plus shipping). Given the lost cost of replacement, it probably wouldn't be cost effective to have yours repaired. But keep it around anyways when you get a new one; should your Bakelite parts break, stealing them from another kettle is the only way to replace them presently.

I have a Revere Ware kettle that I bought in the early 90s and it’s developed a leak at the spot weld for the handle ( i think it’s a spot weld). When I fill the kettle all the way, the water leaks out. Any suggestions on how to get this repaired? My kettle is better quality than the newer ones, but the trigger is already partially broken so it may not be worth fixing anyway.

Hello, although Revere coffee pots are shown in ads from 1940 I can’t find any with logos used earlier than 1947. Does anyone know the actual production date for the beginning of production? Has anyone seen one with a “pat. pend.” logo?

Thanks! Mike

Comment on Repairing Lids by Peter

What you are probably seeing is the metal insert (with some Bakelite stuck on it) from the original knob. See this post for help with removing the old screw insert so you can screw a new knob on.

Comment on Repairing Lids by Sally Thomas

Sally Thomas — Fri, 18 Nov 2011 02:45:19 +0000

The knob on one of my lids had been getting loose, and tonight it finally fell off. It is probably about 50 years old (or more). There is a metal “post” sticking up that does not look like a screw. The knob seems to have come off because the “casing” that was holding the post in place has broken apart. There is also some rust around the base of the post thingy. What should I do to repair this? (I have photos but couldn’t manage to imbed them in this message.)

Hi, is the revere photo guide going to be back on the net?
If it isn’t is there an address where I can contact the producer of the site?

Thanks! Mike

Unfortunately those parts aren’t available anywhere. It is on our list of new parts to have made but it can take a while sometimes before we have it available for sale.

The only solution we know of is to find another kettle, perhaps from a thrift store, to use as a donor for parts.

Where can I get a replacement plastic trigger for the Revereware 3527017 tea kettle? Ive managed to glue it twice but it broke and it is not glueable.

I have a Reverware cookware set from 1953 that I still use daily but this is my second teakettle because the trigger breaks at the hinge.
