I bought this Ninja kettle to replace my old Bosch Skyline one, which had served me well for about 10 years! I decided on the Ninja rather than the newer model of Bosch, because I preferred to have buttons rather than touch control, and I feel the Ninja just looked better. I’m so happy with my choice!
This kettle has all the temperature features that I loved on my old one. The little noise it makes on start/finish is cute, loud enough to hear it in the next room but not too loud. It does get loud when boiling but no more than any other kettle. I like that you can see the temperature going up and down. It is fast to boil. I like the red indicator on the inside of the kettle showing the minimum required level of water, it makes it easy to fill it up just enough for one cup of tea.
One thing to note is that the sides get very hot to touch, whereas my old Bosch did not get hot on the outside so it was a bit safer. However the lid of the Ninja does not get hot so it’s still safe to touch the lid after it has boiled.
It’s a shame there isn’t a Ninja toaster to match. For anyone who wants a toaster to go with it, I got a Morphy Richards (see pic) which has the same matte black outside with silver accents, and I think they go together really well!

The kettle is not working at all and it seems that this item was returned in the past as screw marks are clear at the bottom of the item

I have given it 5 stars but have not used it as waiting for a house move. I love the feature of the variable temperature setting aand the fact it is more compact and lighter than my Bosch kettle which I find very heavy because of my arthritic hands

Quick boiling for tea, not tried the lower temp for Coffee, handy beep when boiled and keep warm facility. Expensive to buy compared with some kettles, but worth the money

We wanted temperature control as we make a range of different drinks and hot water for cooking. We were also looking for a kettle that can boil as little as just one cup so I’m not wasting hot water.
This kettle has a totally flat bottom inside with no visible element so even a small cup of water is ok. I fill the kettle by filling up the cups I’m going to use and pouring them in to it, so I’m heating the perfect amount each time.
I agree with the comments that it’s a bit noisy, but it’s not extreme either. The beep it makes when it’s finished heating is fairly quiet, but loud enough to hear in the same room, so a good balance. It boils pretty fast since it’s 3000w, and you can put in the exact amount of water which saves time.
The inside is almost completely metal with just a bit of plastic for the water level indicator. I did want zero plastic touching the water, but at least it’s minimal, and we have found no taste from the kettle at all.
The electronic temperature sensor means this kettle switches off instantly, even when you heat it to boiling there’s no billowing steam, so we’ve been able to put this kettle right under the cupboards without damaging them, which is a space saver. The footprint is pretty compact too.
Edit to update that it isn’t really getting any limescale build up at all. This was surprise as we have some of the hardest water in the UK and even one single boiling would usually make a fine layer of scale on the element! The scale forms when the water around the element starts bubbling – it’s called nucleate boiling and it’s when water touching the element turns to a bubble of steam. The water escapes as steam, but the minerals that make up the scale stay behind stuck to the element. Unlike kettles with mechanical sensors that leave the kettle frantically bubbling away getting scaled up for a while before switching off, this kettle is off amost instantly when it hits temperature. A lot of the time we’re also only heating water to 70 or 95 – so no boiling at all. So far it’s been a few months and all I’ve had to do is a couple of times wipe around the inside with a washing up sponge to easily remove a very small amount of powdery deposit. With our hard water I would have been tempted to buy this kettle just to do away with the constant descaling, nevermind all the other good things about it!

This review is for the Ninja Temperature control kettle – Aluminium version.
Let me say at the outset that I would like to have scored this as 4.5/5 or 9/10 but those ratings are not available so its a 4/5.
From starting to unpack my kettle, this feels like a premium product.
Mine arrived inside the international shipping box. I can’t be sure they will all arrive like that but it is a very thick brown card box inside of which the kettle sits withing its own display type box (thinner card with pictures and info etc) and again the kettle is fantastically well packed. Thick pressed card top and bottom which I could not even crush by standing on to get into our re-cycling box so very well protected.
The kettle itself is inside a luxury feel insulated bag and even the instruction booklet along with a recipe booklet (nice touch) are inside a separate envelope.
Kettle is simple to use and does not require any self assembly – just a rinse out and its ready to use.
Everything in use is 5 star – it heats and boils very smoothly without the noise and steam of any other kettle I have had, including a Bosch temp control version this is replacing.
Our kitchen is no longer full of steam when we have a brew as it slows down the rate of heating as it approaches the set temperature and then pulses the power to reach the desired temp which you can have anywhere between 40-100 decrees C in 5 degree steps (60-100 are presets, but you can manually adjust in 5 degree steps within 40-100 range. It then gives a very pleasant tone to say its finished. There is the option to select keep warm which will maintain the temperature for 30 mins or until you press stop if earlier.
It is here that it losses a rating point for me because despite the premium features and price tag, it is not insulated and so starts to loose heat within moments of switching off (the digital display shows the temperature going down 1 degree at a time). Also, the outside of it gets burning hot as a result (there is an insulated area on the lid to enable closure which works well) and you need to avoid touching the outside after its boiled.
The electric cable is shorter than any kettle I have used before at approximately 66cm from base of kettle to start of the plug, but its not that short that its an issue for me, but may be worth considering before purchase.
The handle is nice to hold and it does feel heavy even when full to its 1.75L capacity It pours very smoothly and its easy to control the flow rate without dribbles.
So overall I am very happy with my purchase and its a great kettle, but would have been even better if insulated.
