The kettle was the joint-worst performer in our heat retention test, falling to a temperature of 89.8°C when measured five minutes after boiling, and it was also the noisiest, reaching a peak noise level of 63.1 dBA, a good ten decibels higher than the quietest kettle on test, the KitchenAid Artisan. However, the areas in which this kettle isn’t found wanting are quality and features. With its minimum fill level of 250ml, the KT200UK can boil water for just a single cup of coffee or tea. Given that much of the competition has a minimum fill of 500ml, you can save some money with the Ninja Perfect Temperature Kettle by simply boiling the water you need.

Did you know that temperatures can influence the taste of hot drinks? The KT200UK offers six pre-set temperatures ranging from 60° to 100°C which help to bring out the flavour. Select your desired choice at the touch of a button: While I’m a fan of the precise temperature controls on offer with the Ninja Perfect Temperature, as well as its keep warm function and handy tea-making and recipe guide, these positives simply aren’t enough to outweigh this kettle’s flaws.

This intuitive kettle features simple controls, a handy water window with blue illumination, and removable scale filter for easy cleaning. BPA free for your peace of mind. Includes a drinks guide full of inspiration. What’s more, if you’re looking for a matching toaster, the Ninja 3-in-1 Toaster, Grill, and Panini Press is a perfect addition to your breakfast collection. Discover the ST200UK.

Displaying the company’s usual attention to detail, the Ninja Perfect Temperature Kettle KT200UK is no regular kettle.

Design and features This rapid boil kettle boils 1 cup in under 50 seconds. Hold Temp maintains your selected water temperature for up to 30 minutes. Inspiration is included with a handy drinks guide. Choose from 6 pre-set temperatures ranging from 60°C to 100°C or adjust the temperature with manual controls – perfect for speciality teas, coffee, hot chocolate and more.Outside of boiling speed, the Ninja Kettle was one of the poorest performers in our group test. The outside of the kettle reached an unsafe-to-touch 78°C in our tests, higher than any other kettle we’ve tested. It’s hot enough to leave you with a mild burn under the wrong circumstances and makes the kettle potentially unsuitable for households with small children or people with any kind of fine motor control issues. Pouring out water is easy, since the spout is well designed: water flows out without splashing everywhere. Final thoughts The only slight annoyance in the controls is that the Ninja Perfect Temperature Kettle KT200UK plays a slightly annoying high-pitched beeping sound on starting to boil and once the desired temperature has been reached. It’s the same sound you’ll hear with Ninja’s air fryers. The LCD screen shows the set temperature, but once the kettle has finished heating, it also shows the current temperature of the water. This proved helpful, as I could see at a glance if the water was hot enough to use and so didn’t need to reboil the contents as often as I would have with other kettles. Setting the kettle to heat water at the different temperatures through the range, and measuring the water temperature with a thermometer, I found that the KT200UK was within +/-1ºC of the target temperature, which is impressive.
