at first glance, it looks really promising (so much so, it got me interested enough to check out the product page) as it seems to match all the features the leading competitors has -- 1500 watts, auto shut off, dry boiling protection shut off, large capacity, stainless steel, lights, etc..
But after looking at the Keepa, you can see the ridiculous tactic in play. Like another comment stated, the $113 retail is hilariously ridiculous. According to Keepa, it's only been listed for 17 days! And in that time, it goes from an utterly ridiculous $160, changes to a cheaper price in just 2 days to the price in this deal's title $113, then in just a little less than 2 weeks of being listed, drops down to the $23. It's obvious to see the tactic it employs (that slickdeals falls for) where it starts ridiculously high, then crashes down unbelievably low, so it can show off something like "79% off". I've just never seen it so outlandishly on such a new item, and then done so blatantly so soon right out of the gate!
And the reviews and product information are all over the place. 19 relatively high reviews for something that's only been listed in 17 days, and most of them are from months ago??? But whatever, maybe I'm wrong or Amazon is glitching, but I find it suspect. But the product information don't match up with what's claimed on the product page -- "features and specs" state 1100W, but this claims 1500W.
Whatever percentage off it claims, not a good deal as you would think/hope.
