Perfect Temperature KT200UK Kettle, Temperature Selector, Matte Black

Did we need a kettle that keeps the water hot for 30 minutes? As it turned out, yes we did. As kettles go, this is a really good one, it is lightweight when empty which is a good starting point and it is no noisier than any other kettle that we have had previously. It looks good too. We don't do 'speciality' teas so the lower temperature settings won't get much use but the 90, 95, and 100 degree temperatures have been used non-stop. The 'Hold Temp' feature which you might think you won't use has also been invaluable. I get up for work at 3:30am, make myself a coffee from my pod machine and put the kettle on for my large work mug and set it to hold the temp. By the time I'm ready to leave the kettle is already hot and ready to pour. My wife also does this before she goes to work, and because I get home before her I can put the kettle on when I get home, hold the temp, and even after the 30 minutes has expired and the kettle has turned off it is still hot when she gets home and it boils in less time because this is a quick boil kettle. One thing to note with the Hold Temp feature which I personally think is a design fault. When you turn it on the Hold Temp light turns on and the base unit stays lit for 30 minutes, after 30 minutes the base unit beeps and turns off. Next time you use the kettle the Hold Temp light is still lit up, so to use it again you have to press it once to turn it off and press it again to turn it on. In my opinion the light should have turned off after the 30 minute cycle, it's not a major thing so I'm not going to be petty and deduct stars from the review. In the manual it does say to 'Press the button again to turn it off'. In summary, it looks good, boils quick, we love the different temperature settings and the Hold Temp feature, it's the kettle you didn't think you needed.

I chose the matte black version because it matches my kitchen décor perfectly, and it looks really sleek on the counter. Ninja products have always been a staple in both my home and my family’s homes — we’ve always rated them highly — and this kettle is no exception. One of my family members bought it first, and after seeing it in action, I knew I needed one too. I’ve had it for about a month now and genuinely don’t regret the purchase. It boils quickly — within seconds to a couple of minutes depending on how much water you’re heating — so you’re not waiting around long. One of my favourite features is the temperature selector. I drink matcha regularly, and 80°C is the ideal temperature for it. Being able to set the kettle to 80°C instead of boiling to 100°C makes a noticeable difference in flavour — it tastes smoother and less bitter compared to when I was using a standard kettle. Another feature I love is that it holds the temperature for up to 30 minutes. This is perfect if you’re like me and get distracted halfway through making a drink 😂 You don’t have to reboil it straight away. It’s also easy to wipe down and keep clean, and overall feels like a high-quality appliance. I’m really happy with this purchase and will definitely be buying more Ninja products in the future. In fact, another family member has already bought this kettle after seeing mine.

Love it best kettle ever, pours nicely, can set temperature and keep at temperature. Lid locks for safety. Was reduced in sale so better value for money Has easy to read level window.

Love the Ninja kettle. I did wince a bit at the price, and considered a cheaper option but I'm glad that I listened to my friend, who already had one. The hold feature is useful when you're multi tasking, because it holds the temperature for up to 30 minutes. Fab design, and great matt black colour.

This kettle boils quickly and pours well. The temperature options are great for anyone who needs specific water temperatures, I use it on various settings for teas. It can overshoot by a couple of degrees occasionally but waiting for this to cool down isn't particularly a problem. I'd also say that this kettle actually does fully boil water, whereas some others I've previously used seem to turn off slightly before. No complaints.

I wanted a variable-temperature kettle and this ticks most of the boxes. It has a generous 1.7 litre capacity but enables you to heat as little as 0.25 litres at a time, so if you are making just one cup of tea or coffee, you can do so quickly and efficiently. The temperature you heat the water to can be varied in 5-degree increments, which gives more options than I'm ever likely to need. The temperature-hold function has proved useful for occasions when I want to temporarily delay making a drink while I finish doing something else first after the kettle has boiled. The controls are simple, clear and intuitive, and the kettle boils water quickly. It looks good too. The only problem is a design issue: the water-level indicator is bizarrely positioned directly behind the handle, which makes it difficult to read. You have to peer at it at from the side at an inconvenient angle, which is especially awkward when you're filling the kettle. This is rather annoying, and I fail to understand what possible advantage the manufacturers think this positioning might offer. My previous kettle had the water-level indicator on the side, so it can be done. I've knocked one star off for this flaw, but even with this reservation, I'm glad I bought this product and I'd recommend it.

Brilliant kettle, lovely design and really simple to use. There is nothing I don’t love about this Ninja Kettle…actually one thing - the water gauge is located behind the handle which makes viewing the level as you fill the kettle a bit awkward but I’m being very critical in that. Having had another version of this sort of kettle from a different high-end brand before I have to say that the Ninja is far nicer to live with - it’s compact, has a simple one touch start button for 100*c boiling, a discreet sound alert when it goes on and when it’s boiled and displays the current water temperature throughout the boiling process and for a period of time afterwards. Kettle can be left switched on at the wall and the display times out after a sensible period of time. 10/10 product.

This is a very easy controllable electric kettle. It's got good comparability and durability. It's easy to clean and heats the water which can be just a cup full to 100° all the time. You can keep it. Hold on that if you're talking and it does it for up to 10 minutes. You can also change the head settings. So if I want the shave for instance I just said it to 60° and it saves money. Saves you boiling it and it's brilliant. It's got a good visible water tube on the side so you know exactly how much is in the kettle. It fits well in the kitchen and it's very compatible. This is one of the best kettles I've ever owned. And a good price, I recommended it to several of my friends and they've all bought one as well.

nice
