Been watching this ninja kettle on amazon for a while and it dropped from 90 to 58 in Black Friday sale.

Its just arrived. AIBU to think this is not the same kettle??

I was under the impression it was stainless steel, its plastic!

It's not a great kettle either, really.
I had the steel one and it's very thin and loses temperature easily. It also didn't last that long before it started getting a bit temperamental.
The Ninja beep does my head in too!
This Bosch is much better in my opinion, and on offer at the moment:

@NinjaWhat Amazon is known to sell fake versions of branded products. It's why I never buy anything edible off Amazon, because anyone can use photos and sell a fake. Send it back and buy a real Ninja kettle from a reputable shop even if it's more expensive.

Because I bought the airfryer and used it and then got the kettle to match and it looks nothing like advertised! I would like the stainless steel version!

so send it back ??????????????????????????????????
why the drama

It went on sale in black friday, it was £90 for weeks. I wanted the gold to match my kitchen.

I'm going to return it as its nothing like advertised but frustrating as the fake picture is a very nice kettle!

That's gutting! Mind you, we paid nearly £100 for ours back in January and then it went in the sale a few days later - so annoying! I hope you manage to find the one you're looking for :)

Sorry but where is the drama?

I bought something and what arrives looks significantly different. This is an open forum to chat about all sorts of things. So I am asking if other people think it looks significantly different and maybe someone here has bought the kettle themselves and may have received the one I wanted or know if its a fake product etc.

The only real drama I see here are people clicking on a thread they have no interest in then taking the time to comment on it as well!

I do this really funny little thing when I browse Mumsnet, if I read a title and don't really have any interest in it or think its not very relevant to my own life I just scroll past to the next topic. I find it really does save me a lot of time by not commenting on every post I don't want to engage in!

If you buy things from amazon and they go on sale after sometimes they will refund the difference.

Your life must be particularly tricky if you think someone having a boring discussion about their kettle is dramatic.

Ninja has an official Tiktok shop and they always have discounts and deals and coupons on there. It's their official account too so it's worth the order plus returns are quite easy

Not sure if they have your specific kettle though

Stillpoor · 21/11/2025 10:09

I don't think i could spend that much on a kettle.
My last one coat £8 from asda still working 2 year on.
The one before that cost me £18 and it stopped working after a month.

Both the gold and stainless steel look metal on the photos. Look at the bases.

But the body of the kettle (and matching fryer) look like sort of putty/cement-coloured plastic, or some other non-metallic material. The base is gold, certainly.
Does your kettle really not match that air fryer?

(Handsome kettle for sure, and I love it in black but phew….€116 today!)

They don't have that colourway. Apparently its an amazon exclusive

I have the ninja kettle and mine is the stainless steel one. If it was advertised as the SS one, and you got a plastic one that’s not right.

This is probably going to rub salt in your wounds, but I love my kettle. The only issue with having all ninja stuff is they all make the same sound Grin

OK?

I also dont spend £2k on handbags but I don't feel the need to go up to everyone I see with a Louis Vuitton and tell them that.

I think 60 quid for something that is used 10 times a day (hopefully for years) that also has the ability to boil to different temperatures (i like a much cooler boil for my peppermint tea) is not extortionate.

I was not being mean sorry you have taken offence.
I was just saying I couldn't spend that much on a kettle due to being so sodding poor.
But didn't want to say I was to poor 😔.

Wow. That’s flipping worrying.

BeardofHagrid · 21/11/2025 12:18

They’ve really juiced the photo. It looks like brushed chrome so you haven’t got what you ordered at all! The shape is different too. You need to return it.

(This is why I only buy electricals from Argos. You can actually trust them.)

nomas · 21/11/2025 12:19

OP, do you have a link? Looks like a good deal but the grey stainless steel is showing as £78 for me, not £58.

Stainless steel kettles are crap though. They always look terrible
